I don't care for her singing but Britney is definitely no pig!

I don't even recall what they are called but an aquaintance, who is a Ranger once told me the Air Force Special ops people at Hurlburt Field are as good as any.

I lived in Rio Vista. I know these people. They would slit the throats of anyone who ...well...never mind.

Santa Cruz was even worse. I moved out of state.

Are you referring to the US spec ops personnel?

Please clarify. If you are going to call these guys cowards, have the decency to do it clearly and plainly. They won't care, they won't give a dam about what you say. Some others may react differently.

When I was in college the Captain of one of our athletic teams was an Army Ranger Captain.

I have never met a more humble, pleasant fellow. I also saw enough of him in action to suspect that he was just as tough as they are supposed to be.

Of course you are entitled to your own opinion, however your comment is a little over the top. You obviously have no knowledge of our military's elite special forces.

Larry, I understand the duress you're under right now precludes you from answering. How about hand signals. 1 finger for yes, 2 fingers = a no?

We will see, won't we? I suspect any POW will be crying and whining. And we'll see their parents on CNN. Over and over. That clear enough for you?

Btw... I have a relative flying somewhere in the world right now. Nobody knows where.

What's the difference?

That is a question that I cannot answer since I can't recall ever hearing Brittany Spears. I do, however, know the sound of pigs squealing, and I also know that Muslims cannot stand the thought of pork.

I wonder how Van Halen's "Running with the Devil" sounds when sung in Farsi (or whatever language it is those terrorists speak)? Or some good AC/DC tunes: "Hell's Bells," "Highway to Hell."

Ghurkas.

Ghurkas and the Afghans think banging heads is all in good fun. What scares the hell out of the world about Ghurkas is that they fight like Afghanis.

Larry, many SF die each year, the memorial walls are testimony to that.

What is your problem with SF? You a reject? You one of them clowns who pretended to be SF and had his teeth rearranged?

I should hope not. But I do know the political situation. I saw the protests in DC today. I see the trial lawyers lined up to sue airports and the like because some poor person's feelings were hurt when they could not get on a plane.

Doesn't take a weatherman to see which way the wind in blowing.

Larry, there is still a question pending. What SF is near Santa Cruz or Rio Vista?
