    If you read my first post you know that I do not challenge his service to our country. I never would speak with anything but respect for those who did serve our country. However I do reserve the right to disagree with many things that he said and did afterwards. That is my right. I remember studying his interviews before congress in my military science classes in the mid 70's. My point is that just as many try to use baseless facts and inuendo to tarnish Presidents Bush's reputation, that there are issues that if looked into would probably change some peoples view of Senator Kerry. However too many people are willing to take only the 30 second sound bite drivel that the Democratic party puts out. I encourage people to study our history. I doubt that the majority of people on this forum even realize that if our government had not turned it's back Ho Chi Mihn when he came to use for in his initial quest to free his country from French colonialism that we would not have had to endure that conflict in the first place. And it was Democrats that took us there to the depth that we were involved in there as it were.

    Naw, there are certain ages at both ends of the spectrum that poopin' your britches is OK! However if I had been fillin' my shorts at that point in time it may not have been considered socially acceptable. Unless I couldn't stand.

    Your right, I would not be voting for him. Also I would not be voting for GWB. I'm a libertarian. I just find it amusing how both parties look at issues of from 30 years ago. Both of these individuals made what many would consider today to be errors on judgement, considering they are now running for this office. I just know that I am glad that I am not judged daily for things that I did 30 years ago. Some of those would defintely be considered an error in judgement.

    Just stating the facts as they were presented today. I'm sure one of them was offering a pro war position at this particular rally. Rainbo Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

  6. I just noticed, I'm not a newbie anymore. This is the only place, for a long time, that I've been referred to as a newbie. Now I feel old again. Can't I just stay a newbie? Will cash help...wait I'm broke...how about just using me for my body to stay a newbie???

  7. Like so many things in life you will not know the true answer to your question until you have had a chance to experience it. Is your perception of what skydiving would be like at all similar to how you feel about now that you've done it? Children bring something to your life, I couldn't explain it, but I know how it feels. And yeah, it feels good! All the other things that you think are important take on a different meaning the first time you hold your child, and only gets better from there.

    Jane went to great lengths today already to try and distance herself from Kerry. She knows it wopuld not be politically expendient for the Democratic party for her and him to be associated. It will be on CNN again later. The fact is the she and he both spoke on the same stage at this event. Were they personal aquaintances, I couldn't tell you.

    I'm sure I'll get flamed for posting this, but what the heck. Just remember I am not a Republican so this is not a partisan thing. Just diseminating information. I would never talk against a person for thier service to our country. I may ideas about thier post service activities. Notice who is sitting behind Jane Fonda at a antiwar demonstration.

  10. It realy depends on how your post relationship relationship is with your childs mother. Personally I would have it filed in the courts. You do not need a lawyer to do that. I have found that even if it is filed with the courts that there is very little the courts will do to enforce a visitation order. My ex tends to use the children whenever possible as leverage and control. If the parent that has primary physical custody wants to with hold your visitation rights at the last moment they can. The police tend to not want to be involved if at all possible and will usually resort to "How do we really know it is your weekend?" I have my kids every weekend most of the time. But, never am able to make plans because I never know what frame of mind the other is going to be in. Your best bet is to try and maintain a good raport with your childs mother, otherwise look forward to spending more money that you could ever imagine just to be able to continue being a father, which is different than having a child.

  12. Hey Bo, Don't ask me to feel sorry for you. I would give anything to have to work on a Saturday right now. Suck it up and be a big boy> Rainbo Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

  14. It's a great gun. Nice and light, but packs a wallop. Frame is about the same as my S&W Model 59. Thats nice because I can carry both with my double Ambi shoulder rig without having to switch holsters.

  15. You know, on a second thought, I would have to say from a sentimental perspective I gotta like my ole S&W Model 59. A real metal gun that not real big and I have never ever had a misfire with it.

  18. Get a Grip??? I was not aware I was being offensive. Nor was I saying anything bad about people who have their children later in life. I was just saying that I had mine early, and that I do not regret it and I was giving my reasons why I do not regret it. You took the statement the wrong way. Perhaps because you do not know me personally and my normal demeanor. Kinda loud, and usually tying to have to much fun. Simply stating that being older has nothing to do with how much fun you can have, especially when it comes to the kids. So if you take no offense neither do I.

  23. Of course pictures are ok. It's part of parenting, right? Besides, if you can't show off the thing in life that in the end you will most proud of, what can you show off?

  24. Absolutely, we were not denegrating Kid Rock as an individual. Most of us were just saying that as individuals we did not think the act was appropriate. If everybody that broke the law concerning the flag were arrested, or better yet outed as so many prefer to say, then we would all be in the limelight. Don't think about the peice of cloth being more important than say the first amendment, but rather think of the symbolism of respecting all the people who have died defending what it stands for.

  25. Was not a custom shirt (my opinion) as you could see where it was cut for his head to go through. You could also see the grommets in the webbing. And I believe in this particular forum the discussion is open to whatever topic we like. If you don't like don't read it and end up feeling troubled by it.
