What is your malfunction, pal?

I have said repeatedly I KNOW THESE MARINES. Their mother is a colleague of mine who I work with EVERY DAY.

My interest in this is not free beer. My interest is in making sure that Marines are not treated like this. My brother came home from Vietnam and was horribly treated. Almost every male member of my family has served or is currently serving in the military.

My interest, "stuck_in_new_orleans", goes far beyond beer. it goes to something you apparently know nothing about -- respect.

Now I'm not quite certain why you have decided to attack me on this but I suggest you put down the mint julep, take off the tin foil and back the hell off.

You WERENT there, you are hearing GOSSIP and postiong it as TRUTH when you dont have nay knowledge of what the FACTS were. I own a small business and I wouldnt want someone trashin my name/business and have people call me from all over the country because of a RUMOR that someone posted on a message board.

Now I'm not quite certain why you have decided to attack me on this but I suggest you put down the mint julep, take off the tin foil and back the hell off.

If you dont like it, then dont post a RUMOR on a message board, post some evidence about this and I will gladly issue you a apology. Until then, dont post a RUMOR and then get all mad when someone challenges you for evidence.

CGF, when someone gives himself the nickname stuck_in_new_orleans it is because that is exactly what he means. He is stuck in a hellhole of a place. It is a LOT worse than DC could ever think about being.

Maybe he's just sour about that.

If I were you I would feel sorry for him. He knows not what he says or does.

My apologies--I haven't been in the "fight" here--but that reads like the begining of every hoax I've ever read. No offense to you, it's just that some would prefer to wait until the info gets out. Some are more vocal about their doubts than others. ;)
