Today marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Boy Scouts of America. And while I could take this opportunity to point out some of the flaws in the organization (cough practicing unlawful religious discrimination in violation of Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 cough) maybe I won't. Today.

But I will point out how it seems like it was just the 75th anniversary. Maybe that was in 1985:


My brother and I were just lowly Cub Scouts then, not unlike the Tracy Twins from Boys' Life magazine:

I wonder what ever happened to those two goofy bastards when they grew up?

Ah, no doubt they spent time in a paramilitary militia movement in the 1990s, and now they're devoted Fox News watchers. Likely spent last weekend in Nashville, teabagging it up at last week's Tea Party Convention, too ...
