You stupidy is blatenly obvious in your retort. Why would I walk blindly
into traffic? That is something only children do. At 55 I have 20-15 vision,
do you have eyes that good?

I'd like to know your reasoning and theories on your conclusion that we are
the most pandered to generation?

I'd like to know the answer to that question myself. Could it be we are
descriminated against because you don't believe we "can cut it"?

No, again your stupidy is showing. The above is an example that I can make
better decissions that the younger guys, SIMPLY because I have the
experience to do so. I know when I can take the extra base and make it. I've
been around the block more than once. Have you? There was a young bull and
an old bull standing on a hill. The young bull says to the old bull "look at
all those heffers, let's run down the hill and do ONE each. The old bull
says, "NO let's walk down the hill and do ALL of em. No substitute for
experience.

How old do you think Jeff Skilling is? How old is David Duncan?

Dead or in jail??? You aren't going to try and make this a better place? Why
don't you exercise your right to vote come November and make some changes? I
know I will. I agree with you that there aren't very many people in office
that I trust or believe in currently. I will be looking for new faces in our
government come November. Join me for a new vote.

I will pray for your soul and ask God to forgive you that you may find peace
and a seat in paradise.

You dodged my last paragraph. Care to cover it now?
