That better? I thought JohnnyMop blew up villages and killed women and children in Vietnam while his buddy FlaJim picked up soap in the naval vessels well and safely offshore. This is the type post Luddite has never seen. Sick. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! Oh, I see them and I think they are disgusting. But it's also interesting to me to see how people interpret events in life and how they justify their own decisions. Harry obviously never served in the military. He never "served" period (Peace Corps or other) to my knowledge. He said he spent some time in 'Nam identifying dead bodies but my impression is that it wasn't something he did as a service to his country or even his fellow man. I have the impression he did it because the pay was good. I think he has said he was originally sent as a journalist but the job was cancelled or something by the time he arrived. I treat your buddy FlaJim and John the Racist and a couple of other right wing assholes here with the same respect they treat other posters. Your buddies like to **** on Don and a few others, so I feel it only fair to **** on them. You've told me you think your boy FlaJim's posts are funny. I don't see many of them, but the ones I do so remind me of the little boys in the 7th grade who thought they were funny smartasses but, in fact, they were only asses. From what I have seen, that's about all your boy FlaJim does here...**** on other posters. Why you think that is funny is beyond my understanding. That's right. I was never in the military. No, I was not sent as a journalist. I had written a number of newspaper and magazine feature stories on farming and ranching while I was in the Kansas City area. They were noticed by some of the "locals" of the USDA and I was recruited by that agency to work on a "pacification" program in Vietnam that involved exporting U.S. farming technical knowledge to local farmers in that country. The bucks were not that attractive but the assignment was. So, I was trained and was flown to Saigon for a short training session before going out in the field. About the same time my training was completed, I got word that the program for which I had trained had been cancelled. I was offered a choice of being shipped home or being seconded to the DIA for "another" assignment. I chose the latter. The bucks there were not attractive, either. Thanks for your support. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! Nothing about his latest fantasy sounds "secret" which if I remember correctly is why he said he couldn't tell us about it before... maybe, just maybe, he made it up today? Nawwww, not our harry krause. snerk Yeah. The DIA stuff is brand new. I think we've gone from finding bodies to providing technical knowledge of farming to "another" assignment with the DIA. I think his nickname during all this was 'Double Oh Seven'. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! More like 00&3/5. |
