She Finally Gone an' Done it

Well, "she finally gone an' done it." That's right, after years of crafting, my wife has finally made a post on her blog about her hatred of one of my favorite hobbies. In her recent post she compared Airsoft to an adulterous woman with whom I just can't leave. And what happened when she posted this? Some anonymous pro-airsofter responded. He came to my defense. Now I have no idea if this person was being sarcastic or not, but it was funny to say the least. My wife called me and was really upset about it. To her credit she asked me to read her controversial post before she published it and I agreed. She asked me if it made me feel stupid because she was concerned that I would. I told her that stupid wasn't the right word. More like foolish. I don't know which is worse though; stupid is used so much, I think it's lost it's initial shock value. But foolish is different. Foolish is a word that cuts a man down to the core. It forces him to re-evaluate his entire life based on the judeo-christian values he grew up with. There's a song that goes, "the foolish man built his house upon the sand..." Well I won't recite the entire song, but needless to say everything the foolish man loves gets washed away in a terrible flood.

Foolish men are worse than stupid. They make dangerous bad choices that destroy the lives of other people, usually the one's they love the most. I think that's why I told her to publish it. Maybe I'll stop being so foolish and join the real military! YEAH!!
