Thanks for the bump!

The Cranberry festival prevent us from visiting Bandon for shopping, lunch, buying the world's best cinnamon rolls and the world's greatest cheeses.

On Sunday, 9 Sept, Grampa Dave attempted to make a left turn from 101 north into Old Town Bandon! The turnoff was blocked for the festival. Gramma Jeann does not like crowds, so we drove on up to Shalisan, stopping for lunch at the Original Moes in old town Florence!

We cut our vacation short after this act of war. As we passed Bandon on the way home, I asked my bride of 40 years if she wanted to stop for a few hours and she said no with tears in her eyes!

We love to stop in Bandon to shop, eat and sample the great food and stimulate the Bandon economy! Besides the great seafood, cranberry delights, the lamb raised in that area is tremendous!

Some more words from Jim Robinson

A FReeper asked on another thread last night:
So what is the policy of this site?
It would appear that any criticism of the CIA, NSA, FBI and US foreign policy and covert activities are no longer permitted.

Jim Robinson's reply
No, I probably cannot articulate the policy. At least not very well, and not at this time. The policy is developing. I dislike the CIA, NSA, FBI and US foreign policy just as much as the next guy. I think most of the Federal ABC agencies are basically unconstitutional and are way out of control and I agree that our screwed up foreign policy got us into this mess in the first place. I also recognize that our agencies have been jerked around to the extreme under a series of flip flopping administrations over the last 50 years or so. I sincerely wish they could be abolished and a new foreign policy that makes sense could be established and that new and constitutional agencies could be installed in their place to gather intelligence and defend our national security. However, all of my pet peeves died on 9/11/01. We are now at war. Our foreign policy and our agencies have failed us miserably, however, we are now going to be depending on them for our very right to continue breathing. Our enemy is here amongst us. There is no telling when or where or what with they are going to strike next. This is NOT the time for us to be hashing our past grievances with these agencies. We now have to get our act together and get it together quickly. George Bush and his people need to start firing the idiots who have been running the show and start putting good people in charge and instituting sensible policies. We are quickly mobilizing for war. Our offensives could start within days. And when they do, you can bet there will be hell to pay all around the globe, including on our own soil. I am afraid that the WTC was not the end of our losses, and may not even be the worst. I pray I am wrong. I am also afraid that there are many people on this board and all around the country who don't even realize that we are going to war (or perhaps don't want to admit it) and or do not realize the seriousness of this situation we find our selves in. All I can say at this time is we need to concentrate on building our defenses and offensive capabilities. We do not have a lot of time to dwell on who screwed the pooch. But we do need to put the right guys in charge and kick them in the ass. And we need to do it now (IMHO).

Isn't there a bit of overreaction here? There are literally thousands of other sites that hold much more valuable information, yet no one is pulling them off the net. I understand that we need to be discrete, but merely stating what we THINK is being removed. This is paranoia.

Buying war bonds? Only if the Andrew Sisters tell me to.

After nursery rhymes, one of the first songs I learned was "War bonds for our soldiers..." Of course I pronounced it "worbuns", and my mother couldn't understand me. She thought I was singing "ribbons".

And yes, I will buy war bonds again, when my government tells me to.

"Loose Lips Sink Ships"
Millions volunteered or were drafted for military duty during World War II.
The majority of these citizen-soldiers had no idea how to conduct themselves
to prevent inadvertent disclosure of important information to the enemy.
To remedy this, the government established rules of conduct.
The following is excerpted from a document given to each soldier as he entered the battle area.
