You're the one starting the thread and bragging about your Telegraph line and the new horseless carriage you learned to drive with. I'm waiting for you to brag about seducing Helen Keller next.

"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.

I'm so old, that at some point in my life, Capt. had a full set of teeth.
For the morning will come. Brightly will it shine on the brave and true, kindly upon all who suffer for the cause, glorious upon the tombs of heroes. Thus will shine the dawn.

No way HH. I admitted I have a little age on me and I might be old enough to be your father , but I'm not in Keith's league. Keith is so old that Mathew Brady took his baby photos. Originally Posted by HudsonHawk

Capt. America may not be older than me, he just looks that way! Capt. America is so old, his teething ring was a bone.

I'm so old, I remember when DIAL UP internet became available.
(sorry gents, I'm only thirty)The world would be much cleaner if blind people carried brooms instead of sticks.
At communion, when the priest says "Body of Christ", I say "Thanks, I've been working out", then I grab the cracker and run back to my seat
