[Milsurplus] Seen on Pentagon TV...

[David Stinson]

Ride or fly, I was never much for the Valkyries;
they go around picking-up the Hamberger Helper
that used to be warriors and send them on
 to that big beer-hall in the sky.
Janitors of the Gods.  
It's pretentious music for a clean-up crew.

I vote we revise this bit of folklore
to fit the music.
The vision of Amazonian-like Valkyries,
riding into battle with flaming swords,
gleaming breast-plates, blond hair streaming
blazing battle-stars behind,
horse's hooves striking red 
and screaming sparks from the earth;
Now *that* is a myth worth "mything."
