Much bettererrer.

Why are you dissin' the French? They softened the Viet Cong up for you
al through the 50's and you still couldn't win.
He wasn't. He was dissin' French Canadians. He was right. I was close.
Which I could also say about several of my putts this morning.
Putts?

Good lord - the only thing more boring is watching paint dry. :)

You should have been following my sorry ass yesterday. You'd certainly not
have been bored. We'd have gone through the woods, through and into the
creeks, played in the sand, climbed up and down a small ravine, fought over
a ball with a snapping turtle the size of a wash tub, reached down to pick
up a ball only to see the stick next to it start moving (big black snake),
and ended the game with a ten on a par five!

Pohick?

Perhaps you'd do better with Chip'n'Putt...

Only if there were high walls on the sides to keep the ball in play.

Ain't nothing boring about trolling as long as you have the right
Captain providing the entertainment. :)

Do you at least vary the yarns from one trip to the next, or do you charge
extra for fresh stories?

Probably prerecorded yarns on audio cassettes.

I'll diss the french on that one
What's absolutely amazing is that we didn't seem to learn much from
our
war against Vietnam and its various "insurgencies." I'm hearing the
same
sorts of really stupid talk from our Prez and company about our war
against Iraq as I remember from the late 1960s and early 1970s, and
there is still a large percentage of American people who actually
believe the Chimp-in-Chief and his henchmen. When will they ever
learn?
I'm not sure you can directly analogize the Vietnam conflict with the
Iraqi War, but I get your point.

No, the conflicts are not the same, but the callousness, stupidity, and
b.s. coming from our national leaders is pretty much the same. I watched
Rumsfeld testifying last week, no, telling one lie after another last
week. It was an incredible performance.

Hell, all of the talk radio Fox news types are saying we are in WW3 and
claiming that this is just like the rise of the Nazis in the late '30s.


All you have to do is get past your hatred for the Bush administration and
"Big Oil" and things will become clear.

You've got it backwards. Any chance that if Bush had NOT invaded Iraq, he
would have more friends, or at least more people who would patiently wait
for him to vanish from public life? Or, do you think a person's deeds are
not connected with his reputation?

I thought it was the intent rather than the action that determines the
effectiveness of a person or a project?

And, if Pres. Bush had stayed out of Iraq the BP pipeline wouldn't have
rusted and corroded?

If you made a product comparison chart for the two wars, you'd find enough
shared characteristics to be alarming, at least to anyone who doesn't NEED
to kill something in order to be happy.

"Dissin' the French?"

Absolutely not - I don't know how you could read that as a diss.

Personally, I would love to play lead guitar in a band named Damn
French Canadian Aliens from Outer Space.

It's just a great name for a band.

Now see, that was uncalled for.

Just having some fun and you took it down to the lowest level.

Lighten up.

Actually, I was just throwing the joke back. Seems a lot of people are
still super sensitive about that war.
I have the feeling that you did your duty and more on your tours so I'm
certainly not saying the loss reflects on you.
Seems a few clown in here think you need a nanny. They insult you more
than I ever could.
As far as the idiot who claims I hate all things American...wonder if he
got the point I made by quoting an American to suit the circumstance.

That's an awfully gauche and classless comment to make to a known Viet Nam
vet, in my opinion. Once again, you find it impossible to contain your
complete disdain for any and all things American. You're such an asshole,
Don.


Stupid is as stupid says!


Tsk - come on man - get with the program.

Have some fun with it.

Come up with a name for your own band.

Damn French Canadian Aliens from Outer Space is mine. We'll be
releasing our first CD in another year to so.

Shouldn't be so jealous. :)

Jealous of what Tom?
The only thing you have that I want is yankee dollahs. ;-)
