I never went to Vietnam in the military, but I did spend two weeks there about three years ago. Beautiful land and friendly people. They worship Americans, especially our fair shinned women folk. They do not prefer Communism but are powerless to throw out the Chinese.
We were there during a military holiday and met a small group of North Vietnamese officers in uniform. We asked our guide it we could speak with them. They agreed. They hugged our group and said “nobody wins in war”. They said they had two choices. Serve or be shot.
Our guide’s mother was a medical student in Saigon. She was captured and sent to an underground hospital as a surgical assistant. She eventually escaped and got back to Saigon. She became a doctor but because she had helped the North, nobody in her community would visit her practice. She had to change her profession.
Just when fur prices seem to be improving the gol dang gas prices will make it tough to run a long line unless something happens between now and next fall. Dang Persians….why did they have to attack us?
Your logic is flawed. The recent increase in fur prices will more than offset an increase in gas prices.
Most profit I've ever had is when gas prices were high.
But might set this situation we're in from before is the reason oil went up in the past is because the dollar got weaker making fur more affordable to the foreign countries. We'll see what happens
Never understood the greatness label given to Hank Williams. Wasn’t alive long enough to do much. Yeah he had some hits. Cash on the other hand I love his music. My grandmother gave me the ring of fire album 20 years ago. Still have it in original cover. Wonder if it’s worth much
Will never be another hank williams. Never. Did alot with whatblittle time he had.
…. In the Canadians defense… one of their countrymen wrote the rebuttal in the late 90’s lol
When the quick and grinning fire burns our epitaph on ice, When the mad seas breach the ramparts, And demand we pay the price; Will our 'twained lives split asunder? Will our love submerge and drown? Will we cling tight through the thunder as america goes down? When the fungal growth that's fastened on our cities lifts and flies, When the pioneering spirit of our forebears falls and dies; Will we still lie curled together in our broken marriage bed? Will our love still be forever when america is dead?
While the parasite is eating through our sweet and happy dream, While the nightmare is descending, And the sleeper cannot scream; While the night is washed with creeping In all shades of black and brown, Will you wash my wounds by weeping While this land of ours goes down?
When the rising god of history starts to beat the drums of doom, When this rich and diverse culture seals its democratic tomb; Will we march along in sorrow with a dumb, funeral tread? Will we make love tomorrow when america is dead?
As the blood climbs through the rainbow May i hold your heart once more? As the color of our skin becomes our uniform of war; Will your warmth still slide into my grip When chaos marries dread? Will your womb receive my worship When our sacred land is dead? When america goes down, my love, when the time arrives to pay, For the malice of the piper and producer of the play And our image on the screen is of a sad and tragic clown, What will there be between us when america goes down?
I fully agree that we don't need another apex predator or another project to be studied for countless years and endless dollars. I've heard reports of cougars for years some by people I consider knowlegable and experienced. Never heard of female with young ones until now. Should be interesting.
