LOL!

Regarding the upcoming threads . . . you've aroused my curiosity. We'll look forward to it and hopefully the subsequent discussion (light dispells darkness).

They packed up and split.
I think it was either the people dangling from the ceiling
with their feet, or the wacky Magic 8 ball that forced them to flee.

All folks should be proud of their home state. They should strive to represent their state with the highest order of chivalry, pride, honor, and dignity. Our cultural differences are ever changing, but one's pride in his home should remain constant.

It's really sad to see this going by the way. In recent years state pride has given way to national pride, but even now, we have countrymen within our borders who are loyal to other countries.

A very, very excellent webpage . . . we'll take the time to read later. BTW, please don't hold it against me for graduating from a school started by Gen. William Tecumse Sherman. They offered the best futball skalorship. ;^)

Is that "cuz" as in "because" . . . or are you suggesting that we are all long lost "cousins"? :^)

I don't think there's a Kenny Rogers album or Sean Connery movie she doesn't own.

One is Sep 11th. The other is a two parter as yet unscheduled.

Snippy and I discussed it and there's too much to do in one day so we're going to try a two day/same topic thread.

Yes, it is a shame to see State and now, National pride being derided by the Left, academia and a lot of the Press. But I think it still lives under the surface, at least I hope it does.

LOL!

You should have seen the controversy the thread on Sherman caused among some of our Southern Brothers. No love lost for him in the South.

I don't like the looks of these at all. I feel uncomfortable for our Marines.

Thanks.
