Oh my, I'd love it but sadly I was injured on a very dangerous job and have only bills, no savings, don't own a thing. I think my hero is a fictional character named Jack Reacher( Lee Child books) but my dream is a little different than walking through America...it sounds cool though.

No my dream or hope is to find a small place a bit bigger than an outhouse, garage for my tinkering, studio and place with little overhead or I can build( I love building) small addtions and remodels for rent( to own...it's happened before) and then just take off and do the jack reacher thing, only in a car; destination unknown. I wish you well and many prayers in finding a good owner but I was born in debt and though I have a couple degrees things never worked out in the financial department. I honestly wish I was on the payroll again, but alas, nothing I can do about it.

Take care now, and so after that story I guess you'd call me the," hero that's a bum." heh

gotta admit I do like the idea of wearing clothes a couple days then ditching them. The ability to shoot like you had built in laser guidance and the size and speed to stomp the hell outta anyone is pretty cool too.

Well material wealth is not the measure of a man, I’d say. You stepped up when your country needed you and my hat’s off (if I wore one) to all of you who have and do place your own lives secondary to others. I can only hope that I would have that kind of courage when needed.

People like those behind these “leaks” to unscrupulous organizations that seek only their own fame and renown have not a speck of courage or decency. Their ends will be according to what they deserve. You have your dignity, and no one can ever steal that!
