WWI was the marker at which the 19th century became the 20th.It certainly turned on a light for us as did the early years of WWII.

I meant "Riders of Apocalypse" not raiders, of course. Of course. We always know what you mean. With Sam's horrible typing skills we have to decipher his words sometimes also! :-)

Nothing is farther from the truth. LOL. We report and let everyone discuss. At least that way we learn you can't believe everything you read. What is that famous quote on history and who re-writes it?

I have a couple threads coming up that mention the Victory Gardens of WWII. I hadn't realized they did the same type of things in WWI until today.

Fine--just evict the current tenants and make it a USO. Why don't they just pack up and move the HQ to France where they are welcome.
It was a bright shining moment of my youth to see Corporal Rusty and the then-current Rin Tin Tin at the Ohio State Fair in the 'fifties.
In the sixties I used to hop the fence to get into the Ohio State Fair. We lived on 26th and Cleveland Ave. Not a great place then or now but the fair was a blast in those days. We couldn't afford to pay to get in back then and now you couldn't pay me to go.

Now I'm really jealous, the only thing I ever got to see in person was the Weiner Mobile.
[Lassie was played by John Edwards.]
LOL! He fits the part
Too bad the Congress of the 40's didn't have the same wisdom of the one that kept us out of The League of Nations. Maybe someday the majority in America will see the UN for the worthless, corrupt institution it is and get us out, but I'm not holding my breath.

LOL. If the keyboard could just keep up with your mind it would never happen.
