Thanks. However, this 'holiday' is not Veterans Day, but rather the Memorial
Day 'holiday', when we honour those who gave their lives in service to our
Country.

Veterans Day is November 11.

Ah.. you've hit on one of my peeves, Steve. Any day people get off they
call a "holiday". Memorial day is not a holiday, and is not meant to be
"celebrated." It is a solemn observance, and, like many actual holidays, has
been usurped and treated as just another reason to have a sale...

I went to the Trail of Honor event last Sunday, the Vietnam Memorial
Traveling Wall was there too.
I took some pictures with my Kodak Advantix F600 camera.Last Thursday, I
took my film cartridge to the Wal Mart store to get the film developed,
they should be ready for me to pick up later this week.I will snail mail
some of the photos to that married Irish woman wayyyyyy over yonder
across the big pond.

Memorial Day first got started in Columbus,Mississippi.Way back then, it
was called Decoration Day.

People "who gave their lives in service to our country" were what?
Not veterans cuz they didn't survive!? Might be, but the fact they
didn't survive means little in the big picture and even less in your
little hair-splitting rectification. Memorial Day, Veteran's
Day.... there can never be too many observances in honor of those who
have defended our country and it's damn petty to take someone to task
over such a minor distinction.

Memorial Day is about how stupid the Civil War was, and, by logical
extension, how stupid all wars are. I'd honor the veterans more if
they'd quit obeying illegal orders.

I guess it is what is your definition of a troll. I thought a troll
was/is someone that says something just to get a reaction from people.
I never thought of RHF as a troll, he helped out alot of people (most
that just lurk) by providing links to different subject matter.

When I started in here yearsssss ago and used my email - I can promise
you I got emails from over fifteen different people asking me
questions that were afraid of being ridiculed in here, so I'm sure his
links have helped out quite a few, having said that - changing the

Have a look in a mirror, that is if you can find one in your house that
isn't cracked! You'll see a troll in all his glory!

There really isn't a clearcut definition of the type of troll you are! A
troll who gets others to do his trolling for him! That's a new
definition for those clever chaps at wikipedia! to sort out. We'll just
call you a cowardly troll and leave it at that!

There are so many personalities in this group at times it's hard to
remember who does/doesn't like who. I didn't know or remember the rift
between RHF and Dave. Me personally, at first I didn't think much of
either Dave or Bob, sometimes it just "takes a while" to figure
everyone out and like BA said a while back which is very true -
something like "most people have things in common or think the say way
with just a few differences".....that wasn't verbatim but pretty close.
