Although I really think you owe it to yourselves to think more highly of HenryL (smart cookie), after all, you wouldn't waste time or be bested by arguing with Beavis?? I hope all this political BS is buried by the time the bash comes around, I'd rather hang out with the guys then listen to bickering.
Sorry slack, I mistakenly sent you this as a PM when I intended to post.
I'm Spunfisher and I approved this message:
First off I am not spin, nor is he I . I can appreciate the confsuion, however you give me way too much credit as I wish I was at least half as smart and intuitive as he is. Next you'll be implying that I'm Spicoli . I, Spunfisher, had nothing to do with the Beavis comparison other than to clarify the confusion surrounding Spin's post by submitting a visual support for those not privy to his style of humor. I guess the consensus was that Spin's joke wasn't all that funny.
Second, I don't recall me ever knocking Henry L on this thread. He knows I happen to find him to be well educated and an overall good kid, albeit a bit too infatuated with war history and the glamorization of military conquests.
Unlike some conservatives/liberals who continually fabricate reasons for why they didn't serve OUR country, I hold Henry in high regard for his open willingness to become a member of the Armed Forces. But until he has an actual hands on experience in the service and witnesses how things work in reality, I'll continue to view his posts as merely academic.
Like my Dad told me back before I left home for Basic Military training, "Let's see how you feel after you earn a couple stripes on your sleeve."
