This is not just a guy who likes Scouting. He is a wacko. He is a cross between a 1950s John Bircher and a sadistic seminary teacher.

The guy comes home from work and puts on his Scout uniform.

He kept calling the Cub Scout leader, a woman, "hon" (as in "honey" for short). She isn't his wife and she's asked him to stop (on a prior occasion, I was told). He won't. He just rolls his eyes at her.

And then there's the double think: Boys, you are in charge of the troop. But if you don't go along with this 10 page plan for the next year, or come up with better things on the spot, you're in for a browbeating like you can't imagine. But you are in charge of the troop!

I am soooooooo glad that I was only at the meeting representing the YM.

Something needs to be done about this guy. I'm guessing medication would be a good start.
