you are excitable and emotional....by anglo standards.

I am in training for a Hollywood film offer.... [but I have not heard from my agent yet, so I need more practice, SI is perfect !]

but that is one of the reasons we get along

I think there are other reasons why we do... as far as the "excitable" part.... sorry, but I am sickened tired of the Supremasist bullshit, and I will not tolerate it, while I acknowledge their "right to express it".... I will be damned if I don't "express" my own thoughts on it....

You have the right to crap, but that does not mean it does not smell.

No IFS buts, or "debatable" whatevers.

Actually, I am incredibly surprised at the "tolerance" that some great Americans give to these bastards, particularly when some equally great Americans were killed in Europe fighting a war that was caused by one son of a bitch leading a bunch of similar bastards... By that I mean those who believed the same crap that Hitler and his close lieutenants spoused, I realized that not all Germans were like that, yet they were forced to "die for the Fatherland"... what crap !! Yet another reason I do not believe in the concept of Nations, borders, flags, and the like... it is the human race, and the power of the individual where one should bet, the rest is nothing more than lies promoted by politicians.

[Who love to ponder, argue, and debate endlessly, in order to hide their true agendas] --I say, bullshit, go sell the smelly crap somewhere else!

The entire second world war truly perplexes me. I have never been able to understand how it was possible for Hitler, who was not even German, was capable to capture the leadership of the German people, who, in a generalization, I have always regarded as smart...

I can go on forever.... but this is not the place nor the time.

As a strange coincidence, I spent Sunday late afternoon, talking with one of the survivors of "D day"... we had a great time exchanging ideas, and thoughts, not only about the war but about many other subjects. He answered many questions of mine, but in parts of his descriptions, understandably, he would hesitate. No, he was not someone blinded with passion, but recognized the danger of the situations, he related to me that 70 % of his men were wiped out on the landing... <snap>, just like that [he was a captain during the war]. And in some other cases, the loss ratio was as high as 80%.

I must say, it was a great and rewarding day.... [in spite of my HIGH...and low of my earlier golf game].

As we said good bye, his wife told me that for a long time, he refused to talk about the war, and in particular about D day... Yet she recognized, [and so did he], that it was good for him to do so.

I almost had a coronary when Lilly headed away that shot off the corner kick in extra time. great game.

I had this, non stoppable nervous laugh, after that play <g>... it would not stop until the US scored the fifth, and winning goal...

It is always a shame to have a final [or any game] decided in such fashion, but after 120 minutes... what do you go by ?

Yes, a great game, which the US deserved to win, the Chinese always looked very, very, dangerous in their counterattacks.

Since we are all originally Africans, anglos don't exist.
