“Nothing takes the edge off a stressful day better than watching someone getting decapitated by an ax murderer. When I’m feeling a little depressed, nothing blows away the blues like hearing the screams of an unlucky hunter while mutated bears shred him into mulch.

“From time to time there will be some complaints that we are pushing our people too hard. I don’t give a good Goddamn about such complaints.

You may be thankful that twenty years from now when you are sitting by the fireplace with your grandson on your knee and he asks you what you did in the great World War II, you won’t have to cough, shift him to the other knee and say, “Well, your Granddaddy shoveled shit in Louisiana.”
