Hi kat

We have not been on the same thread in a time. Good to see familiar names on a Friday evening

Love that one.

Put it in my bookmarks.

Rainy Fridays are great days for digging Great Outstanding articles ( that are still relevant ) out of the musty Archives for all the new Freepers to
see for the first TIME!

"I would not wish to fight the United States-either militarily, politically, or culturally. For every theat, our history teaches us that Americans offer not just a rejoinder, but the specter of a devastating answer of a magnitude almost inconceivable to those now chanting and threatening in the streets of the middle east. Do they have any idea of what sort of dangerous people we realy are? Do they understand the history of the names of those ships now off their coasts, like the USS Peleliu, ot Enterprise, or the pedigree of the 82nd or the 101st Airborne?"
