    I just had to share...

    My father is retired military... he served two tours in Vietnam. He is also very well-versed in military history. After a discussion today by phone he sent me a lengthy statement by Alistair Cooke...you can read at http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles...le.asp?ID=6255

    I couldn't help but notice what my father has in his sig these days...

    It reads..
    "Beware lest in your anxiety to avoid war you obtain a master."

    Your father has a sig?

    Does he carry around a big white sign when he goes to the grocery store?

        No idea what that means. Kind of too heavy for me.

              I thought your days of insulting people were over. Guess you can chalk up dickhead to your list of character flaws.

              Ouch.

                        Insult? Man, you read too much into things.

                        PK, were you insulted? If so, I apologize.

                              They are MY balls, and god dammit, I'll slam them where I want to.

                              PK and me go back 6 years although she may not realize who I am using this alias.

                                  PK and I go back almost seven years. I have even talk to her on the phone. I know she has no clue who I am, but she's a big girl and can handle it.

                                    I had a few sites listed on hers about 6 years ago too. Doesn't mean she likes me correcting her typos.

                                            *sigh*. It's amazing how simple you are. Let me clarify something for you:

                                            When I said "you roll over too quick", I was referring to your apology at presumably insulting PK.

                                            Does it make sense to you now, or would you like me send you a copy of "Sarcasm for Dummies"?

                                            Ouch.

                                              Once again, sarcasm has gone completely over one's head. Why do I waste it here?

                                                  *sigh*. It's amazing how simple you are. Let me clarify something for you:

                                                  When I said "you roll over too quick", I was referring to your apology at presumably insulting PK.

                                                  Does it make sense to you now, or would you like me send you a copy of "Sarcasm for Dummies"?
                                                  I understood exactly what you were saying, just did'nt see any point to it....

                                                  So, I responded with....."dry humor".

                                                  Get it?

                                                  Why are you even responding to my threads in the first place? Oh, that's right, because you misunderstood my words in the beginning. Simplicity? Yeah.

                                                    I concur.

                                                        Sorry for inadvertantly molesting your thread, PK. Yes, the article is very interesting, as well as the site.

                                                        My thoughts have been revolving around the whole "giving up freedom for security" thing for quite a while, now. It's kind of creepy.

                                                          Are you saying this wasn't sarcasm

                                                          I thought your days of insulting people were over. Guess you can chalk up dickhead to your list of character flaws.
                                                          In response to this:

                                                          Does he carry around a big white sign when he goes to the grocery store?
                                                          Hmm?

After a discussion today by phone he sent me a lengthy statement by Alistair Cooke...you can read at http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles...le.asp?ID=6255

                                                                      I couldn't help but notice what my father has in his sig these days...

                                                                      It reads..
                                                                      "Beware lest in your anxiety to avoid war you obtain a master."
                                                                      -- Demosthenes
                                                                      I just read that link. And your dad's sig. Interesting stuff; thanks for sharing.

                                                                      I would characterize Saddam as more like Stalin than Hitler, however. Stalin was more interested in preserving his own egolomaniac power-base than anything else, just like Saddam. Hitler was trying to create a "greater" humanity at any cost; his own power-base was a means to a twisted end... just as Pol Pot's was.

                                                                      Regarding the sig... I cannot disagree. But I must add the words of Thomas Jefferson: "Men who would give up freedom for security deserve neither." Both quotes hold true to this day.
