    Yes, I was very impressed by Audie Murphy's story and it wasn't just the medals itself, but his bravery out on the battlefield......

    If it takes medals to honor someone to show they are appreciated and for their achievements, there's nothing wrong w/that......

    Yer such the lamebrain Nerd Turd.Once someone drops LSD or Trips they are basically
    immobile.They really can't even watch a movie,let alone write stuff.
    It's a head trip where you go inside and explore yer subconscious.
    Why do you feel the juvenile urge to say really dopey stuff like that.
    Yer the kinda person that anyone who was about to Trip would steer clear of.
    Cary Grant was one of The first volunteers to take acid {LSD25 }.He was in
    therapy { psychoanalysis for alcoholism }.
    I guess if you were to trip you would see other's as Putz and yerself as
    Jim Morrison sitting next to a Lizard as they stick tongues out at each other.
    " Nah nah nah nah Naaaaaah ... my leather pants fit tighter than yours ",would
    be heard in that deep distinct liquor-laced Morrison slow drawl.

    Is this word salad intended to say ANYTHING, or is it just random words?

    Herk would be the $75,000 monkey that is up every other pilot monkey's ass about professionalism and conduct. I'd be the foul-mouthed booze monkey with sunglasses on its head and unzipped breast pocket on the bag.

    I like this place, I like lots of people here, and I AM WHO I AM. I'm doing great, and will continue to do so, I know this, by all the job offers I get, and those people do their research, so I'll tell you exactly who I am. I'm 5'3. Every place I've ever been has said the same thing, is this the 'new company Napoleon'? Yup, that's me... I don't care, I get girls, I get jobs, I get money... Its been hard, but make real on the promises you make, make huge profits, and all little shorties can make money... I did, and will continue to do so, I have no fears... Shorties unite! Lets go conquer this world!!!! LOL...

    On the negative side I've dealt with many bullies and (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)s, but I'm still here, so I won...

    Granted ATTITUDE is monumental in seeking success.But not one lick important in
    Happiness ... THE most important venture a mortal can seek.
    An adult will inevitably have to make a choice in life.What is more important,
    acheiving some goal towards success { based more on Societal Pressue } OR
    being truly content in life with Lowered expectation,knowing in advance that
    they'll probably live longer and have far less stress.
    I always look at seniors who appear truly content and live long,uncomplicated and
    simple lives.Where really dopey Ideals like - Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous -
    is more an exercise in excess and phoniness than true Happiness.
    Plus Happiness takes work.Definately is not a given.
    Like keeping a clean house or making one'e Bed.
    A bed can't make itself.

    That's the last time to pick a fight, if you are drunk.... Shorties got to survive, not lose... Like I said, I'm here now, so I'm not worried for me, but will be there for others if they ask...

    THE most poignant use of the word " tall " was heard uttered in a good movie
    starring Clifton Webb.It was - Titanic -{1953} also starring Barbara Stanwyck.
    I could almost cry just thinking about it because it was SO heartfelt,arguably The most
    heartfelt Line I ever heard in a Movie.And I used to write Movie reviews.
    Clirton Webb plays a ritzy,meticulously attired cad who lives to jet set and
    act like some blue blood prince.Having acquired an obsession for Travelling First class and
    acting the Prince,he was estranged from his Family,especially his son who was
    beginning to turn into quite the young man.Probably around age 14 or 15.
    The Father { Webb } was trying to connect with his son,and the son was very
    much in awe of his Father,a world-class bridge player and traveller.
    However Webb was still more interested in his addiction to being a
    world-class bridge player and snobbish traveller.The son couldn't help but
    look up to his Dad and did everything in his power to be by his side.
    Norman,the son was with his Mom,unable to locate his father.He was
    safely put in a lifeboat.
    However the boy,just a young teen,managed to slip out of the lifeboat
    at the last second as it was being lowered, to be with his father.The Mom
    screaming " Norman,Norman" as the boy chose to remain with his dad,like
    what was expected of the men.Norman finally found his Father,as the Dad,
    frantically tried to find another Lifeboat,but there were none.
    In the closing scene where the Band had already succumbed,just finishing the
    a popular song among the Brits " Nearer My God to Thee " and the ship was
    nearing it's final lurch,the Bow already off kilter,Clifton Webb stood shoulder to
    shoulder with his boy.The son couldn't take his eyes off his Father,obviously as
    proud as any peacock. Starring off into that dark night,peering above with a sad
    tear in his also very proud eyes,Father Webb said ...
    " I have been proud of you every day of you life.But never more than right now.
    I feel as Tall as a Mountain ".

    No you didn't you lying sack of crap. If you had deleted the post it wouldn't still be there. It is as simple as going to "Edit" and selecting "delete post." Don't play dumb because I know you're not half as retarded as you are being. It says "PRIVATE" on my album because I get to select who can view it or not because I don't want the entire (*)(*)(*)(*)ing internet to be able to view it. Maybe I should pick and choose smarter people who have some regard for or any understanding of the word "PRIVATE." Not even sure why you would feel the need to post a picture anyways unless you lost all sanity. Of course you wouldn't need a password to view it because I have it set so you can. You. As in someone I trusted. NOT THE ENTIRE (*)(*)(*)(*)ING WORLD.

    Well, perhaps some of your hostility is justified, but I'm not lying. I did notice the "Private" label, and I had assumed the "Privacy" application would carryover into the post itself..
    and I don't recall getting "permission" to view it before. I did not know I was on some sort of "list" of those allowed to view it.

    You have my sincere apologies for a poor decision I take complete responsibility for it...however I'm not lying to you...I was not aware the album had been identified as private for my eyes only.

    Uh, sorry if I started anything with the picture posting. I was just arbitrarily posting a picture of random female pilots to be a smartass.

    No need to apologize. Gov had a photo album on her profile page, I hadn't looked at it in at least a year and prior to that, it was not labeled as "private"...
    apparently between that time and now she had limited the views to folks she trusted. Poor judgment on my part to post a pic regardless, I honestly did not expect
    the hostile reaction, as the album previously appeared to be public.

    She wants to remain completely anonymous, and I didn't respect that.

    Water under the bridge.

    I don't understand what the big deal is. She posts pictures of herself in her wedding gown, face showing. Hard to maintain a level of anonymity when one does that.

    I don't know either, who am I to argue with an angry female.

    Any photo I post on here of myself, and is later "re-posted" by someone?

    The only person I can blame is myself for originally posting that photo. I had no idea, the post would create such a visceral reaction....

    I'm sure there are pictures of me on Google. That is out of my control, but I'd be really suspicious of anyone who had enough of my info to find them.

    It has actually always been private. I thought the word "PRIVATE" across the top was pretty clear, but maybe I expect too much out of people. Why would you think you would have any reason to post a picture of me from anywhere? There are a lot of lapses in logic and if you haven't figured it out by now, I can't help you.

    It's not rocket science. That picture is unclear and was taken from a (*)(*)(*)(*)ty camera phone. The picture Herk posted had a (*)(*)(*)(*) ton of detail. Again, I don't get the thinking process behind going into a photo album that says "private" clear as day, and posting the picture.
