Want to see a picture of my ass this HNT?

If you do, for this weeks HNT picture you'll also have to stomach a picture of the scar in, yes in, my left hip. It's not exactly pretty, far from it actually, but it's part of me and I'm proud of it. I have a bunch of scars, this being the largest, as a result of my being sort of blown up during my short tenure in South Vietnam in 1968. Go back a few posts to read a short synopsis of that adventure and see a few pictures.

A side shot of my ass.


Yeah, yeah, I know the scar is gross, but suck it up!

    Wow, that's something. Scars are cool. And what's cooler is the fact that you made it home in relatively one piece.

    Happy HNT, BTE.
