: : Wellllll, now!!
: : A lot of reflective silence is required for this one....except for one statement..."blood is thicker than American citizenship".... hmmmmm!! I can reenact British Highlander, I can be proud of my ancestry (which I've written of before, won't bore anyone again!), but I am damn proud to be an American....and....and...that's why I can see these things through!!
: : Any other comments? How about Toot, Seamus, and Three Tales (not to mention all the other fine folk of Mohicanland).
: : Your most Humble and Obed't Servant...For God and Country!!
: : Dr. Uncle Mark
: Dr. Unc!
: I, too, was taken aback at that comment...and my initial reaction was terribly unkind, particularly since I do not know this lad, and would likely not be allowed to be printed on this "family page." I will say, however, that that attitude is what made Tories fear for their well-being and flee to Canada or England when it was discovered. Maybe this lad should begin packing...I am heading out to find a couple of old down pillows and then will stop by the road project and get a bucket of tar. I have taken a rail from my fence in the yard and am going to go looking for this guy. Coming with me??
: Agree with him or not,though, he can say what he wants because our ancestors, yours(_____Hagenbuch, his first name escapes me at this late hour!Sorry!) and mine (Matteus Koenig), Dr. Unc, fought for the freedom to do just that....and so can I.
: America...love it or leave it, Robert F. It seems you just might be happier elsewhere. My grizzled old carcass is riled a bit.....don't mess with me...........
: Seamus
I dunno Seamus.......that was pretty subtle as to be almost indecipherable. And your point is......? hehe
