So, that would mean you were against the War of Indepence, the Civil War,
the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the invasion of Haiti more than once, the
invasion of Panama, the invasion of Greneda, Somalia, Lebanon, Yugoslavia,
the first Gulf War (those are ones that come to mind that do not fit your
description).

goal. And who knows, after a couple of more countries that you have taken
action against, the others may decide to reform their ways, and you won't
have to go to war with them. That is after all, what this movement toward
demcracy is all about, and so far some countries seem to have gotten the
message, and think about what Libya did recently...would they have done that
if we had not gone to war in Iraq?

What kind of problems did you have? I didn't experience problems
with any of my 8 kids -- no drugs, rebellion, or anything of that
nature. They all were busy in school and in music and held part-
time jobs. Oh, the boys let their hair grow a bit in the Beatles
look, but I remember my family taking issue with the way I dressed
back in the Bobby Sox days. I never sweat the small stuff with my
kids. And perhaps because of this, there was no "big stuff" to
be concerned about. They didn't see their parents as their enemy.
We were there to help them along their way to self-sufficiency not
to comment on or object to harmless teen stuff, such as their
clothing or music. I do believe it helped that they were not
indulged with material things and had to work for extras.

Maybe so, but that's the one that everbody I knew was concerned with.
After that the low numbers continued dodging the draft ala Bush and
Clinton and the high numbers got on with their lives.

You are right. How does 11-21-1951 sound ? That must have been
your first.

Connie - I agree with your thoughts about the dreadful sixties; I raised
two sons, who were in their teens then, through that period - - would
nhot want to have to do that again!!!!

It's the land we know of as Israel. Actually Palestine is the

And some people think the American Indian had a raw deal.

A voter would be crazy to vote for just any dufus for no more

An most of those 49% were well-informed, educated,
Americans who seriously consider the issues and don't let
personal prejudice against a single man guide their decision
about who should can take a leadership position in America.

Or,,,,, maybe I am wrong....

Ah, yes. Feb 2. That was a good day. Conceived in early May.
Wanna tell us the hour :-)

BTW, if a person has your birthdate and he knows what county you
were born in, he can get your SS#. Just a thought.

Which is the reason I No-Archive my posts. I'm of the opinon
that we give out far more than we realize. Nothing that in itself is
anything, but when taken together.....

I wouldn't trust anyone on usenet with that. In your son's case,
I would have to know where he was born, which I don't. And also what
his surname is. Which I don't.

It's just not wise to give out too much. For instance, if you
had been born two years earlier, and if I knew your maiden name,
what county you were born in, I could tap into your SS account,
because with a little trouble and using the census, I (or anyone)
could probably find your mothers maiden name. Of course, I
wouldn't . I'm not partial to jail. But many crazies would. I
wish they would crack down on identity theft. It's something that
anyone of us could become victimized by.

I ran into a situation the other day that gave me pause. On my new
credit card, I was asked to furnish a surname for future
verification. My first impulse was to give my mothers. Then I
remembered it is used by the SS people. If someone at the credit
card company put those two together, with everything else they have
on me, what problems they could cause. I made up a fictional
name, which I hope I'm never asked for.

For instance I never even give my zip code out on the net. When I
sign up for weather reports, I give them "somebody's" zip, but not
mine. I figure the town down the road will have the same weather
that we will :-)
