What's wrong with welfare? Once you've put away your jackboots, we'll talk.

:) HA!

[writer33]

You're all picking on me. I hate you all.

:)

[Darksheare]

LOL, naaah.
We like ya.
(Just be careful of doing any of my typical typos! They're contagious, just ask the crew of the Undead Thread..)

[writer33]

Yeah. The F and G key are to close together. I didn't even notice till after three or four people said something. Then I looked and thought, dumb a**.

:)

I've proof read my post, hit post, and then saw some glaring typos.
Said the same thing, and my monitor has a forehead print on it.

Sometimes I will spend a couple minutes combing my post, hitting the spelling chicken button, and praying I didn't miss anything.

Found a typo or two of mine the spelling chicken overlooks.

I sorta lecture, because I have solutions. Others are clueless and have no answers to the basic tenets of real world life in a production world of responsibility of life in raising children or running a business.

Then again, Karen, my wife of 34 years and I have been running parts and pieces of multi-billion dollar enterprises while still raising two children. Ever heard of Glaxo SmithKlein Beecham, American Home Products, Wyeth Ayerst, Sterling Drug, American Home Products, Texaco, Seagrams, IBM RTP, IBM Latin America, Whitehall-Robins? General Electric Large Steam Turbine, IBM/Sony in Rochester, MN?

Been there. Done it all.

All I have to say is that my unit has been hounding the Pentagon for over four years now to go in country and be a part of the War on Terror. Our first contingent finally leaves this month.

[Nasty McPhilthy]

Thanks, I believe I will.

[GeronL]

but the U.S. is putting the lives of its soldiers in jeopardy

Isn't that what armies are for??

[DBeers]

Barf is so passe',so 2005. ;^)

LOL

I'd say that Iraq war is causing the force to vote with their feet even if their paycheck if larger then ever.

Apparently, the AP is no longer interested in even giving the illusion of balance.

[Cobra64]

I think you need a spanking young man. Why not just get a lecture instead?

I think you mean a "lecturn." BTW, I'm 56 years old. "Young man."

[earplug]

Your free to say most anything.
I have my check and my COLA.

She also is certificated in automotive and diesel mechanics and has a California teaching credential.

Well, that explains her credentials to report on military and national security affairs, right there!

"Certificated." Perhaps she meant to say "Certified"? I tell you, Pulitzer Prize winners aren't what they used to be.

[writer33]

Hey. She can work on your car while digging for dirt on President Bush. She can truly multitask.

:) HA!
