*Adagio for Strings starts playing*

I think now, looking back, we did not splat the enemy; we splat ourselves. And the enemy was in us...

The war is over for me now, but it will always be there... the rest of my days... as I'm sure Cap'n Cuttlefish will be, fighting with DJ Octavio for what Judd the cat called "possession of my soul...".

There are times since, I've felt like the child born of those two fathers...

But, be that as it may, those of us who did make it have an obligation to build again, to teach to others what we know, and to try... with what's left of our lives... to find a goodness... and a meaning, to this life.
