My pleasure.

My brother served in the Army in the early 60s and was stationed on Formosa for almost a year. He was a member of 101st Screaming Eagles, a paratrooper.

Same to you and your'n this coming holiday season. Geesh, Is it Halloween alread ;-?

What location in Taiwan? The airbase or???

You may know Formosa is from the Dutch for garden isle. It is that. Sure miss the fruit and variety of food. Also, the variety of juices and other drinks available in 7/11's there.

Yeah, the older I get the more time seems to race--MOST of the time.

And I keep having the feeling that once things are off and running--either with the war with Iraq or some such other--then the rush through the tail end of history as we know it will be really fast in a lot of respects--except maybe for those imprisoned by the oncoming tyranny. Would sure like to be wrong on all that. Sigh.

We ought to enjoy our relationships while we may, it seems to me. Life is too short regardless of war or no war.

THANKS FOR YOUR KIND REPLIES.
