But you're not discussing the infomation provided; you're mocking the story by talking about something you may or may not do once in a while.
I hope you don't have children; if you do, I hope you're as openminded when some 52 year old asks them for their picture and what they want for their birthday.
I'm not a Congressman, but I correspond with children I don't know all the time. We get emails all the time from 'young balloonists'. Ballooning is a dying sport and the only way to keep it alive is to encourage young people to get involved and to participate. I have even asked for photos, so I know who I am talking to. I also talk to their parents if it is an ongoing conversation. I want to make sure there is NO question of my intentions. We will be leaving for Albuquerque for the Fiesta in 4 days. One gentleman I talk to is 13 years old. Because of the correspondence we have had, he will be helping us crew for 2 weekends... I have even mailed him things just because I want to encourage him in his interest.
I am reserving judgement on this Foley thing.
I am probably just an old fuddy duddy that hasn't figured out the ways of the world...
Howlin, no offense intended in this post, but I'm at a loss that this is even an issue.
