One I like to live by is this, which was said by an ex-WWII British fighter pilot when he was discussing how the smaller, outgunned RAF won over Hitler’s Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain: “When you believe in what you are doing, you are twice as strong.”. VERY well put.

Interesting website. It should be fairly easy to print posters from these images. Just right click and save them to your computer as a .jpg file. You can easily upload them to an online printing company. I imagine a smaller poster size will be best with the low resolution of the images.

Great job there. I took the liberty to print a couple of them and pin them to the corkboard. That’s fair use, I suppose.

Thanks, Brett.

I read Hemingway in high school and still can recall his stories and his unique style of writing. I knew about his suicide and that suicide has continued in his progeny, so there could be something genetic there. My family has a tendency towards depression and I started on Prozac in 1990 and remember vividly how it brought me back to “myself” within two weeks. I have since been on various other SSRIs and used to be able to cycle on and off, but I can’t any more. I switched to Wellbutrin from Effexor last year to ameliorate the sexual side effects but started having anxiety attacks, so my psychiatrist added Luvox. He said Wellbutrin can cause anxiety, and I’ve been fine since- more content but generally less motivated. I suppose less sex is a trade-off for more contentment.

These are absolutely great. Just reread Green Hills of Africa and there’s a lot in there about what a man is.
