Check this out guys, I submitted a poem to Nightstalker.com and it is now the opening page for the website. I submitted it about 4 months ago and they never even replied, though I told them use it if they like.

Thanks des..

Write one poem and the likes of JNibbles starts questioning my sexual orientation. It's almost always pointed north.
Here's one from the CINCSOCOM:

When the roll was called that morning,
We listened for their names;
We paused in solemn silence,
For each it was the same.

None answered to the roll call,
Each one had passed away;
We felt the pain and the anguish,
On that sad and mournful day.

Each of us who knew them,
Knew it was not their last fight;
For God will take them home,
With him, they'll make their last flight.

Only those who fought with them,
On their final day;
Know what heroes they really were,
Yes heroes, we all will say.

For each of them was more concerned,
With the welfare of others;
This selfless love they possessed,
Makes us a band of brothers.

There was no hesitation,
With bullets round them flying;
They came to help their buddies,
For they knew others were dying.

Yes these men were heroes,
What each Warrior wants to be;
But these were special ones,
For they were Night Stalkers, you see.

So when their story is told,
Everyone will then admit;
It's more than just a motto;
"Night Stalkers Don't Quit!"

Joe gets busy sometimes but he's a good guy. Not sure why he never answered you...

I sent a message through the webmaster link on their site, that day, to thank them for the honor, and apologizing for it screwing up the site. Still, the NS.com link deadends at the poem. If you use the "/index/" or "/index.htm/", you get the same page. They have a tremendous site (in the works), sorry the public is only seeing my poem right now...

Damn! I'm suddenly feeling a little pressure?

:( :) :D
