It Wasn't Until The Late '70s That

But As A Young Kid, I Never Did, Really Have An Ambition To Be A Farmer. I Never Thought, Gee, I Would Like To Farm, And I Want To Raise These Crops. I Didn't Quite Know What I Wanted To Do.

I Saw A Large, Red Dried Swath That I Immediately Identified Clearly As Blood. I Covered The War In Vietnam. I Saw A Lot Of It [blood] There.

But In 1941, On December 8th, After The Japanese Attacked Pearl Harbor, My Mother Bought A Radio And We Listened To The War News. We'd Not Had A Radio Up To That Time. I Was Born In 1934, So I Was Seven Years Of Age.

My Personal Opinion Is That Guns Kill People.

My Mother Gave Me A Push. If I Hadn't Had Her, Maybe I Wouldn't Have Had The Push. If I Hadn't Gone To Military School, Maybe I Wouldn't Have Decided To Get With The Program. Maybe I'd Be Running A Bulldozer, Rather Than Going On And Doing Something More.
