"If you didn’t grow up during the Draft while there was a war going on, I have no sympathy for you."


Actually, I WAS alive during that.. but was too young. My dad, was old enough, and went into the service to avoid the draft, to the Navy, back, I believe in 1961. He became one of the first Navy SEALs, before they had a name (ended up being called "Snake Eaters", at that time). I went on to go through 2 branches of service.. USAF, and then US Army.



Don't know if you ever served... but you have NO position to say SHIT about me.
I volunteered to serve .. X2 ..
Can you say the same thing?


BTW, I also started computers before there WAS any DOS or Windows (or Apple)..


I get the idea that you may be older than me... but that doesn't give you any superiority.
Not all of us are stupid, although, it DOES seem that FR has been taken over by TDSers, Libertarians, anti-Semites, Zeepers, and whatever other anti-conservatives possible there are...

(Am on WinBlows, so don't have access to my VK ping list (on my LINUX OS).. but will ping them as soon as I am back on there.



OH!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW
I DID also put my life on the line.. Been through IRAQ and Afghanistan... Was not the jungle of Vietnam... but... KMA and FAFO...

I did more than serve.
I left my blood on the ground.
