Don, that was a good one! Ray, go girl, I LOVE your attitude! >I personally feel I should volunteer myself before asking someone else to >fight and die. As a PWP my life is not worth squat anyway, so I'd go if >they could get me over there so some 18 yr old wouldn't have to die instead >of me. Our son who's heading over there is 41 & I'd go in a heartbeat to keep him safe, but he's ready, willing & anxious to protect all of us from any & all terrorists. Says when this "war's" over he'll go to Korea to stop those idiots from destroying freedom in the world if he is asked to. So, we will keep praying for a peaceful way to resolve all this, most definitely, & for the safety of all our troops & the innocent Iraqi people who so want to be liberated.
