Ade Posted September 12, 2001 Share Posted September 12, 2001 Don't get me started on Maggie Thatcher... "There's no such thing as an innocent bystander" - Refering to people caught in riots, probably some small child who took a plastic bullet in the head. "General Pinochette was a good friend to this country" - Reminding us we shouldn't prosecute him for killing thousands when he helped Britain out over the Falklands War (because it suited him).

Ron_R Posted September 12, 2001 Share Posted September 12, 2001 Part of poem, "The Double Life" by Don Blanding: "How very simple life would be If only there were two of me A restless Me to drift and roam A quiet Me to stay at home A searching one to find his fill Of varied skies and newfound thrill While sane and homely things are By the domestic Other One." (after 4 more stanzas, it ends) "The restless Fellow always wins I wish my folks had made me twins" Â then, Vernon Tejas, returning from an extended climb,"Man moves quicker towards a food source than he does going away from a food source."

Erwin Posted September 12, 2001 Share Posted September 12, 2001 In relation to everything going on right now: "...I have slipped the bonds of Earth and, from my vantage point on the Moon, I stand watch over the uncharted new frontiers of Space. I have been a silent witness to all of America's finest hours. But my finest hour comes when I am torn in strips to be used as bandages for my wounded comrades on the field of battle-when I fly at half-mast to honor my Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines, and when I lie in the trembling arms of a grieving mother, at the gravesite of her fallen son or daughter - I am proud. My name is Old Glory -long may I wave. Dear God, long may I wave." -Old Glory, unknown  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
