Just damn! Cpl. Wright is a TRUE hero!

Absolutely!! I heard him in a radio interview a couple of weeks ago--said he'd be back out there with him if there were any way he could go. Completely humble and not a shred of bitterness or pity about his wounds. Reminds me of the poem by D.H. Lawrence...

Self-Pity

I have never seen a wild thing

sorry for itself

A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough

without ever having felt sorry for

itself.

Clinton...8 years in office, 4 years out of office, and I read that he STILL has not made his funeral plans. Broke statute requiring it and 12 years late.

" Do you know what scares me about Clinton's funeral? I'm afraid that he'll request to be buried at Arlington "


I don't know ..... too many men may feel compelled to relieve themselves at the sight .....

I thought I was going to make it through today without tearing up,...then I read your post. That is the sweetest thing he could say.

prisoner of War is on TCM with Ronald Reagan. Very poignant movie.

God called Ray home to play for the Great Man, who had just arrived.


OH! Now that made me cry! (again!)

God called Ray home to play for the Great Man, who had just arrived.

And what's best--and I mean this with all sincerity--now Ray can see him. Gives new meaning to the first verse in the song "Amazing Grace"--

"was blind, but now I see."

The Toon probably thinks he'll never die.

I cannot see clinton wanting those long nights to come, when spirits walk and talk amongst themselves. I don't think he would be among friends there.

Clinton...

I know itis easy and tempting, but,can we all agree to leave off on any Clinton references on the live threads.?

It soils the thread.
