Where have all the flowers gone?

When my brother was little, he had a friend named Robbie - they played hockey together. In fact, Robbie's father was my first hockey coach. Robbie and his family eventually moved from Quincy to Franklin and he and my brother completely lost touch, as little kids who like 45 minutes away from each other will always do. Friday morning, I heard on the news that another soldier from MA died in Iraq. This one was 29 year old Robert Pirelli. Yup - that's my brother's childood friend Robbie. http://news.bostonherald.com/localRegional/view.bg?articleid=1017721. El Presidente, it's time to bring these soldiers home. There's no longer any reason for being there. It's time to end your ridiculous war.
