I just read the dialogue and the mood was abruptly rankled after your enterance.
You do have a talent in this area!:)
I don't think you should have been suppended. I do recognized that maybe another time would have been better to voice this.
I think their relationship was beautiful for a man and a women should be come one. A child is suppose to leave their parents and cling unto their mate. Every thing in balance and children should never dominate so much time that their parent are not able to nurture their love.
Nancy said when Ronnie came into her world that is when life began for her. I feel the same way about my husband when he enter my life it had meaning!
I don't totally agree .. but I can see your point
However, on the day he died and on a thread that was a tribute to him an his Presidency wasn't the place
Next time .. may I suggest that you don't ask to be banned .. LOL
Oh, lord love a duck, Resty...what other time? This is a discussion board, not a funeral home.
And when I said you were an expert in this area, I was referring to your own suspension....during which I felt much compassion for you, dearie.
It had nothing to do with your experience and when I was suppended it was not because I was indifferent on purpose it was because I was pleding with a group who was anti my faith!
How patronizing of you.
They had problems with their children because the kids were sucked into a world of their whining peers, spoiled brats who have nothing better to do than criticize their parents and resent all authority, rather than make lives for themselves. Unhappy, unmotivated, ungrateful cretins. I have a couple like that, and no marriage to blame it on. I wish I had a husband for support and comfort for myself and a role model for my sons. But it isn't meant to be. I do not harshly judge any parent who sets a good example.
Val, I have been there and done that. I will tell you of my son, tomorrow.
My remarks to your approach was not ment to be unkind, it just at times when one is on the receiving end of some of your remarks it is not very pleasant.
and you come back sometines is Lord loves a duck whatever that means!

Michael Reagan, President Reagan's oldest son, a nationally syndicated radio host and columnist for NewsMax Magazine, made the following statement to NewsMax.com Sunday afternoon.
I can think about the times that we spent together as a father and son, sometimes just literally talking about nothing, but just being there and being in awe of him.
I think about those days when he was governor of California and how wonderful a job he did for the state. I can think about the times that he allowed me to be in his presence when tough decisions were ready to be made.
For example, on the evening that he chose George W. Bushs father to be his running mate as the candidate for the vice presidency, Dad invited me to be in his inner circle as those decisions were made.
I remember the night in 1976 when I asked him what he missed most about not winning his partys nomination as its presidential candidate. He said to me: "Michael, what I miss most is not being able to sit down with the Russians and saying to them "nyet" because its been so long that weve been giving up too much to get along with them. Its time for the Russians to get along with us."
But what I remember most about my dad, and what puts me at peace with where he is today, is a conversation I had with him as he was flying back on Air Force One and he allowed me to accompany him back to Point Mugu [Air Base, Calif.]
It was Easter Week in the last year of his presidency, and he looked at me and he counted out 'nine' on his fingers. I asked what that meant, and he said: "Michael, it will be nine more months when I will be able to feel the freedom once again to go to church each and every Sunday. You know, Michael, ever since I was shot I have worried about putting other people in harms way by being among them, so I havent been to church on a regular basis and even though I have offered my presidency up to God I havent been with God on Sundays. Thats what Im looking forward to."
And as I look back over Dads 93 years, what puts me truly at peace is knowing that my father was fully aware of who his God is. Not only did he offer up his presidency but he offered up his life a long time ago to serve his God.
And so now the peace I feel is knowing that my father has gone home to be with his God and his Lord, and that is the greatest gift that he ever gave me.
Morning Mo. I bought the Canon i860 in Fl... and loved it so much, that I just bought another for here.
$150.00 at Best Buy or wherever. It does one hell of a job with photos, and the ink is beyond belief. I printed over three packs of 20's full size, a whole box of 4x6's and I don't know how many reg sheets of print, and I brought four out of the original five cartridges home with me with ink still in them.
A full set of cartridges cost $60.00.. I have just put my first of my second set of cartridges in that Al bought me in FL. I've never seen a printer and ink cartridges like this. It's the best, most economical printer I've ever seen or used, and it's soo quiet you will never know it's running. I like the fact that you only replace the cartridge that runs out.... when they finally do.. ;) I just printed up 8 full 8x10's the other day, and expected to finally maybe replace a cartridge..lol.. Well.. not yet!
So, it's been over seven months of heavy printing, and I'm on my first turnover of ink cartridges. It's scary, really. I would recommend it to everyone. Use their best paper, and you will get spectacular prints.
As you can see, I should probably work for Canon. Love their cameras and now their printer astounds me.
Who did you take a bite out of?

Good news from Michael Reagan - thanks for bringing it here.
RIP, Gipper
My dad's service number is 9XXXXX.
He enlisted.
Andersonville?
Nice shot of the Texas Capitol, Val. I took the tour when visiting Austin a couple of weeks ago. It is a wonderful building.
Not if he died the day of his release in Richmond. Andersonville is in southwest Georgia.
Well, bless your heart!
