Thanks!

[tina07]

yes, and so was he, 62.

Oh, I knew that; I thought she meant like a number......LOL.

A foundation they have been trying to blow up, in a slow and deliberate way, for decades. I think we can judge how close he is to erasing their progress on any single issue by how loud and outrageous they are.

Notice they don't give a rip about Alito's 300+ decisions he's rendered on the 3rd Circuit, but that Alito, if nominated, would swing the pendulum of justice away from their side, and return the judicial branch back to what the Founding Father's intended.

[tina07]

I would have left off the 'was'!

[Howlin]

Are you the youngest child?

[BigSkyFreeper]

Welcome. :)

My father collects antique radio gear, and among his collection is a Signal Corps backpack radio unit. It looks like one gigantic cellphone. :)

[tina07]

second of four, but really an only child..the rest are wierd I must say, and that is putting it lightly! Sole caretaker of my mother.

[woofie]

My sister-in-law is a hater of Bush. A while back she said something about the death toll in Iraq, and actually said it was MORE THAN in WWII...a real educated liberal there!

More than the first day perhaps

[Howlin]

We'll have to compare whatever it is we can find!

Do you know when your dad came home?

[tina07]

Thanks, I've been around for a bit tho'. There used to be some ribbons of my father's in the basement of my mother's house, but my brilliant youngest brother threw them away.

Ouch!

[tina07]

Yes we will have to compare. No to his discharge date, but I can get the discharge papers easily, my mother lives right next door. I wrote myself a note to get them, but myself never remembers. Hopefully with our discussion I will now! My mother was only around 13 while he was in the war!

Like the Dearborn Train Station in Chicago, which used to be DEARBORN-5700? LOL

[tina07]

yeah, I know. There was also some foreign money, rolled up paper money, not sure where it was from exactly, but it's gone too.

[Howlin]

My dad was 3 years old than he was, but my dad had been to college before the war started.

I can't imagine they were there together, but who knows?

Was your dad stationed in Burma, or where?

[tina07]

yes, Burma

[Howlin]

Is that where my dad would have been to Soldier Field (or something like that)?

[tina07]

he would repair the shot up planes

[Howlin]

Okay, this is getting spooky; me, too.
