[or-roots] Killed in action

Lenore:

Why didn't you use your delete key on this one?

Common decency prevents me from telling you what I think of you.

    Much lip flapping is being made today about US service men and women being killed in Iraq.

    In Sweet Home, in the 40's there was a big billboard, on a mound, on the SW corner of 12th & Main Streets that listed our war dead in WW II.  A Shell gas station occupied that corner for a few years, but it too, is now gone.

    I remember feeling a bit disapointed that I did not know any of the persons named on that billboard.  Is there anyone here that may have seen that billboard?  Do you have a photo of it?
  I delete virtually everything that shows up on this list, which I have been a member of for years because something in my area might show up some day.  You are a bunch of clacking old hens, who should form a chat group, because that is what you want to do.  YOU were SORRY you didn't see any names you recongnized?  I totally support the war in Iraq but the boy who grew up 2 houses down from my house died in Iraq  and one of my grandsons is there now.  YOU should be GLAD you didn't recognize any of the names.  You totally disgust me.  Will go back to ignoring all this crap unless it mentions one of my surnames or Union County.
