I guess those US Army ads I'm always seeing with black kids in the projects are just a coincidence? And the one with the Mexicans in the very slummy apartment that is all in Spanish... Yeah, that one is my favorite.

Were you ever in the armed forces Torog?
Howdy lemonboy,

Yup..I was..were you ? If I could,I'd go back in again,but I'm too old and crippled now. Some presidents have fought in a war,before becoming CnC.

Alot of poor folks volunteer for the military,because it's a steady paycheck and because of the educational opportunities,rich kids don't have financial problems and have access to the best education,plus many are spoiled brats,that would never dream of doing something selfless.

I also feel that some of our best soldiers,are recent immigrants,who are actually grateful to live in America and are eager to give back to their new country,as opposed to un-grateful Americans who don't realize that America is the greatest country in the world.

You could change yer handle from "lemonboy" to "lemonman",if ya went into the military,it makes men and women,out of boys and girls,and ya git to see the world and do things you could never do as a civilian.

Have a good one ....
