Earlier this year in a Thrift I talked to a Pearl Harbor vet...he joined the Navy when he was 17, went to through basic training where his unit was asked if anyone could type. He answered in the affirmative and was immediately sent to Pearl Harbor as a clerk 2 weeks before the Japs attacked. He said he was in a Navy office building at the time when a bomb dropped on the building across the street. He said he spent the war as a clerk stationed at Pearl Harbor. The most endearing thing was that he has been married for 70 some odd years to the same woman. As they walked away they were holding hands and clearly were still in love...

A couple years back I was waithing at the DMV to renew my license where I struck up a conversation with another WW2 vet in his 90's who was in Normandy, landing a few days after the invasion. During the war he was an ambulance driver, where he said he had 3 ambulances shot out form under him. He said he went from Normandy to the Elbe river in Germany.

I had two friends long since passed who were in the 8Th AF where they flew missions over Germany. One was a B24 pilot and the other a P51 pilot who used to hang with Chuck Yeager.


When I was growing up all the Dads were Depression era kids and WW2 vets...So you got a real flavor of what it was really like during the Depression and WW2.

I think too many of you smoked too much dope and took too much acid and that has turned your brains into mush..for you have forgotten austerity and self sacrifice if you ever knew it. Maybe the worst thing that Greatest Fen ever did was indulge molly coddle, and pamper their Boomer children. Just look at what has happened to this great nation of ours under their watch..then their misbegotten miscreant children are no better than simpering idiots who are clueless.

What has been a rude awakening for me over the years is finding that even though many of you Boyz are smart and successful I find you all to one degree or another to be somnolent idiots. Let me clue you all it is no way to go through life being asleep at the wheel.
