How Do You Organize A Proper Firing Squad?
There was a book once called “Droodles”. It consisted of a series of off perspective line drawings that were difficult to identify. You tried to guess what they were. I remember this was one of them. It’s a bear climbing up a tree as seen from the other side. A bunch of us in college used to do them as an intellectual exercise. One of my favorites is this one. In the original it was an “Aggie” firing squad (Texas version of the blonde joke). I like this title better – An Aerial view of a Congressional Firing Squad. This one is a church or nonprofit firing squad. This one’s an environmentalist firing squad. A firing squad as done by Academia. A United Nations Firing Squad (the ones in the blue helmets). And a firing squad as done by the US military!!! Now that’s what I call “point & shoot”. Simple, goal-directed, effective! Someone asked me how we do them in Texas. Okay, you asked….
