Val .. it was just a poem that touched their heart .. they put themselves in that poem and thought what if that was my little girl .. that is all
And I believe it is the same poem I posted here on the Freeoples thread last week and yes it also made me cry
My father was not a fireman .. not a policeman or anyone important to any one else .. but he was my hero and I know the feeling and it was real life
Maureen, I was the one who started it, just like I did last time. I will put a gold star beside your name on the list of wimin who think I should keep my mouth shut. It is a growing list. Valerie can't help herself,she can't stand to be left out of a fight. She must be Irish.

You lost your father when you were a little girl, so it can touch something inside you that is still young and raw and will always be - but these adults have no excuse for being so defensive as if it is personal. If one of them is a little girl who lost her father on 9-11, I'll post a HUGE public apology.
