"...But the liberal newsrooms across the nation are going to keep pounding until the American public GETS outraged, dagnabbit. I just wish them Phillies would come up with a leadoff hitter..."

Well, Lancey, I've had the 'Original Bob Ireland' as my friend and houseguest for a few days, and he raised the same questions.

We never found an answer - just a desire to sight-in the rifles!

As far as the Phillies go - who cares? I'm still tryin' to figure-out how the Tigers ever won a World Series, and I WAS THERE!

Stay well, pally............FRegards

So that's where I was.... whew!!!

[ps: the trip home was uneventful for me ... although about 10,000 love bugs might not agree.]
