Here's something that will make you choke: unless you were a medic or
someone directly involved in the evacuation of wounded troops, whatever
*you* did in Vietnam had a lot less meaning to Americans compared to
what I ended up doing there.

Wow, I love to hear more about this. Was this before you graduated from
College or after you worked for the Kansas newspaper?

The Washington Post covers news in DC, Maryland and Virginia, among
other places, and has lots of bureaus. That doesn't make the Post a
Maryland or Virginia newspaper.

Despite the handicap of sailing into the wind, many Canadians
pressed on and arrived on the shores of the Boston States. Many
stayed and thrived but some couldn't cope with civilization and
returned to the backwoods of the maritime provinces where they
eventually won freedom in 1984.

I thank the Lord every day that unwitting clowns like you are
around to help make my point.

Halifax was the birthplace for democracy in Canada.
This happened in 1758...before that ungrateful rabble vandalized
the tea supplies in Boston.

Poor dumb Florida Jim knows nothing about Canada, either. I wonder
if he was this way before he took his boat to the landfill for
disposal?

Trying to deflect the fact that your partner is as dumb as a box of
rocks kind of puts you in the same boat. (boating reference)

I don't really bother with your URLs, scheisskopf. So...when did you
finally dispose of that clapped out old Wellcraft. And you never
replaced it, right? You have no boat, correct?

Don't be so pushy. I never disposed of my boat. I don't know where you
ever got that idea. *No more questions until you tell us truthfully and
exactly how you avoided being drafted.

You mean, you still have that clapped out Wellcraft? Maybe we can take
up a collection for you.

I didn't *avoid* the draft. I was exempted because of a federal job.

Yeah, spell checking is very important to our national security.

All you are going to get out of him is more double talk. If he gives you any
truth it will be sandwiched between lies. He could have been handing out
donuts at the USO or emptying bed pans based on his description.

I had a feeling that someone who handed out donuts or emptying bedpans
while in Vietnam had more important duties there than you did, but
neither of those were my jobs.
