>> i do not think it is even close to realistic to blame W for a personal investing strategy that never takes profits when every other business endeavor in the world is supposed to be profit based.

That's not why he's lost my support. The fact is, he ran as a "uniter", and promised to support the consensus, but since elected, he has clearly aligned himself with the far right.

cuf

Hi uw,

I was watching that HBO mini series by Speilberg and Hanks, called Band of Brothers, last night.
I thought it was well done.
Lots of good action scenes, etc.

I was wondering if you saw it and what you thought of it.
Those dudes were the real deal. True heroes.
I can't imagine what it must have been like jumping out behind the lines not knowing where one might end up.

I wonder if the training scenes stirred up any memories of marching...
You were in one of the airborne divisions right? Or do I have that confused?
Did you ever see any action?

Anyhow, I occasionally lurk around here and the other threads where you gentlemen post.
When I saw those first two parts of the series last night, it made me think of you.

Back into lurking mode...
