lol...Rick, you remind me of my uncle....a blacksheep, but ultra cool...
He has an IQ over 140, and hitchhiked to Cuba....yes Cuba...on a tramp steamer ....when he was 15 ...in 1955.
I was ultra conservative....he is liberal.....he taught me much about the world...as he lived it....Gulf of Tomkin...etc. He was an old Navy Salt.
I rethink my stance ....as I learn more about the world..for example. My wife is from Honduras...her cousin witnessed a drug related murder in La Ceiba. He is under police protection. His family is as good as dead.
I wonder why people wish to emmigrate here...
just like 1865....Irish
just like 1898 ....Italian....etc.
Why don't people realize what made this country great????
Rick, Sorry for jumping the thread....but I figured youy would understand.
