Reposting threads takes up bandwidth. Bandwidth must be paid for.

My son said they had the most fun with Marine Xs package. He said he wasn't sure who we were sending the pack to, but the panties were size 20, and he said one of the guys got on top of the humvee and jumped off with the panties over his head and yelled, "Look at me, I'm an Airborne Ranger!!!!". He said one of the guys attached the panties to an antenna and it blew in the wind like a windsock. He said it entertained them for quite awhile. Oy! Self abuse! I wonder if they have photos of this. Who is the commander of this outfit?!?! This is cruel and inhuman behavior!! Who does he think he is, a prisoner, or something???? </sarcasm>

Thanks for pointing that out Happygal, but how do folks who watch the thread headlines who aren't about the emergency medical benefits of tampons learn this kind of stuff- short of reading every thread back until before the election? Does F.R. have a firm policy on duplicitous threads?
To: paulat
Hahahahaha! Thats a cute story! Ingenious too!
Smart guys. I like the windsock underwear!
To: bitt
Listen,newbie,it's NOT all that hard. First you start out by checking the title,then the salient words. What's so difficult about that?
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh,yourself! ;^)

If the military needs Chap Stik, the should contact Whitehall-Robins, in Richmond, VA. They were my client in 1996. Whitehall-Robins is a divsion of American Home Products, based in NJ.
I put together their ERP, CRM and Advanced Pricining, AR, AP, and GL pieces of the project.
I also did the FDA qualification process for the Feds on their prescription side of the business.
Wyeth Ayerest was a major portion of the project as well; in that their drugs were more of an "esoteric" nature.

Heh, maybe it's because the Red Cross First Aid Class was for Girl Scout leaders, but we were taught about using sanitary napkins and tampons on heavily bleeding wounds, cause our First Aid kits always have these.
I guess the Marines never got that memo; but you can be sure the story will be going around over there!

Not so much on threads like this, I think.
But in high volume times, you could get ten duplicate threads on the same topic within a ten hour period. Then they try to manage the volume.
I think this is a cute story. And I didn't read it first time round either. No harm done, in my mind.
However, no point bashing people who are simply trying to encourage good posting practice either. :-)
