[Iris7]

Lest any think by the previous that I am not an American Patriot, I went to the Viet Nam war as a volunteer, and have wanted and still want to to to Iraq. Well, yeah, that they won't take me because of my age and health is a little bit of a relief!

SAM, the story of the Siege of Vienna, of King Jan III Sobieski, and of how the Poles saved Civilization (most affirmatively an understatement) has merit, especially in this current day. Those Mongols, Turks, and Tartars were Moslem to the last man, engaged in Jihad.

I have affection for Charles the Hammer, for Roland, for Charlemagne, and especially for the swabs of Lepanto. But Vienna was important.

Lest any think by the previous that I am not an American Patriot...They would not know our Iris7.

I could rant about how sad it can be to celebrate knowing we are less free than we were at the time of the revolution. We are still servants as long as we are taxed to death. A small tax was and would have been acceptable, outrageous taxes and fees are not, yet look at us. Our founding fathers are probably not amused. We are still the best country on earth but it could be a whole lot better. And I have the freedom to say that thanks to men like you.

Good morning and Happy Fourth.

The thought never crossed my mind. :-)
