Your dad a gun totin loon who will believe anything that suits his
POV?

Oz1...of the 3 twins.

I welcome you to crackerbox palace,
We've been expecting you.


He a retired Nuke engineer. Designed nuke power plants from
submarines to TVA's largest plants. Also worked for NASA during the
apollo missions, designed parts on the F-111 and many General Dynamic
products. Korean war vet. Worked his way through collage driving a
cab.

Gun totin loon...No. However he is a collector and likes to shoot. As
kids he taught us gun safety and often brought us target shooting.

He also was awarded a big gold medal from the President for staying
and a Nuke plant in Florida during the worst hurricane in Floridas
history.

He's in his 70's and has never broken any laws ,( except that time he
was picking up rocks in Florida) pays taxes, he's not offended by the
phrase, 'One nation, under God.'

He's never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in
public places.

He says Christmas instead of Winter Festival.

He bows his head when someone prays.

He stands and places his hand over his heart when they play the
National Anthem.

He treats all vets with great respect, and always has.

He's never burned an American flag.

He knows what he believes and is not afraid to say so, no matter who
is listening.

He taught us to respect your elders and expect your kids to do the
same.

He would give his last dollar to a friend.

Most likely not a Crackerbox palace kind of guy Oz...

Joe
