To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.It's been a while since I've repeated the oath in its entirety, but the last two lines in particular have come to mind a lot lately. As I grow older,

the Girl Scout Oath

"On my honor, I will try to serve God and my country, to help people at all times, and to live by the Girl Scout Law."

Sounds like the Girl Scout Oath is the same as the Boy Scout Oath, except it doesn't include the passage that I think is the most important. Are they included in the Girl Scout Law?

Cub Scouts use two fingers, but Boy Scouts also use three. Also, I wouldn't be terribly concerned about all of the promises. Just try to work on helping people :P.

You should use those three fingers (or two fingers for that matter) to go _______________________ yourself.

Um, right. Who is this? I'm not fond of anonymous people making disparaging remarks on my lj.
