100 years of Boy Scouts( in the US)

Today is the 100th year of scouting!

I'm celebrating by meeting up with my troop tonight.

How are all the scouts? Today is a great day for us all. I just wish being a boy scout wasn't look at as "lame" by some people.

Whoever thinks scouts are lame clearly has not seen my department at work in the summer.

I'll admit we do attract some more special cases than other youth organizations, but I think it helps them as they get older.
They come in a lame boy scout and, hopefully, they come out a "man" scout. Sticking out tongue

Yay! 100 years already. I am not meeting with my troop, as my Scoutmaster dislikes fun in anyway, shape or form.

oops. I guess you're thinking of boy scouting where it originated overseas. I'm talking about in America.

I'm a Man Eagle Scout. It's crazy that only .4% of scouts make it to Eagle.

Here's to 100 years of gay bashing, excluding womenfolk, and secret handshakes in the shower house.

This is porn, not Shakespeare. The quality is more than sufficient.

Here is to opening doors for old ladies, learning to patch people up, and community service.

I have a Troop Meeting scheduled tonight. Knowing my SM, he's going to rant and rave about Scouting and Baden-Powell and whatnot. Whoo...

Foxtrot, I'll admit the organization has some problems, but what organization doesn't?
Surely the good outweighs the bad.
