There’s a certain element of romance in being the lone wolf against the world. We idolize people like that in movies such as Rambo, where Sylvester Stallone takes on wave after wave of enemy all by himself. We love to see Captain America or Iron Man wipe out an entire enemy base on their own. We even look back at the Mountain Men, those brave trappers who went into the Rocky Mountains, long before anyone could even think of mapping them out. To us as Americans, there’s something about that one man against all odds that truly resonates with us.
There’s only one problem with all that; other than the Mountain Men, everything else is fiction. Fictional characters can take on an entire enemy base and come out victorious. They all have a sixth sense that tells them when someone is going to get them from behind — allowing them to turn and surprise the enemy that was about to get them. Their carefully choreographed movements, with carefully timed enemy attacks, make it possible for them to beat wave after wave of enemy, no matter how big or bad they are.

I don’t comment often but I do read this blog regularly. I have to say you do a great job of keeping us all informed and up on the latest happenings without all the bravado and chest pounding I read
on other sites. NCR is a great resource for people of like mind to connect.
Thank you kindly, sir.
