When I was a lad such as this ...the Gay Scouts was beyond imagining beyond hoping for. Fags were just for beating, and killing, and the Scouts were also race segregated. So a double bolted door for me.
On the other hand,…
Here’s my innocent boyish scout vision. This unearthed from a years old post.
Once upon a time,...
"I saw me, and my new scout pal’s out in the wilds of New Jersey,…tracking down mountain lions, digging up Spanish Gold!, building tree house’s, and sighting UFO’s. We’d also be hot on the trail of “Atomic Spies”, rescuing cats, exploring mysterious caves, and making friends with da Indians.
We’d be tying all sorts of knots, and painting ourselves up like Sioux Warriors. We would eat wild berries, shit in the woods, wipe our butts with leaves. The lot of us would go running on all fours, and howl at the moon like wolves! We’d go skinny dipping, have kissing contests, circle jerks, blow things up, and build model airplanes!
At night under the stars we’d sing do-wop songs, cook foot long kosher hot dogs over a roaring camp fire, and tell scary stories about deranged communist robots from Venus invading Nebraska.
For bedtime we’d set up surplus air force parachutes, and use them as our communal tents. We’d say our prayers, kiss each other good night, cuddle up like puppies, and slip into the gentle arms of dreams. Perhaps some few might stay awake to chase fireflies or sing songs to each other."
These was my Boy Scout Dreams.
That would be the Walt Whitman Troupe, I expect. Lord Baden Powell would have been shocked, *shocked* - and livid with envy.
