Five centuries of Aesop Fables...

Major hat tip to James Yeager FB page.


James posted the above pic on his FaceBook page and it sparked a memory of these short tales about life.  Much wisdom is contained in these fables so I found an open source book of them and decided to share it with you guys.  Check it out below.

  1. What's the naming convention? I thought the only US vessels that were named after politicians were the flattops?

  2. To be nomitated for the Nobel Peace prize you need to be a megalomaniac freak bent on sending your country to the crapper, you know: Obama, Carter, Hitler, Castro. I dont know if a gun control advocate qualifies as that?

  3. Be happy Solomon, at least they havent apointed a radical feminist as the defense minister (yet). Oh boy the good old legionaires were shitting blood.

  5. You want to know what's worse? This is going to be deployed to the Far East, where every Asian country already nervous about China is going to see the USS Political Animal paraded in front of them. They'll look at it and ask "Is the US really serious about the Pacific?" "Why did they assign a ship named after a politician here? One shot in the head much less."


    What impression is the US giving to the world?
