The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for May 02, 2009

Hmm-mmm, guess you had to be there…

Is this the new tough love?

If you don’t understand you don’t read the tabloids.

it wason the national news not just in the tabloids

I don’t read tabloids (thank God!) but I get it. Unfortunately.

THe old punching glove in the book trick. That’ll leave a serious book mark everytime.

Why does it say PRO next to my name? Did I upgrade and not know about it?

I think the pro is leftover from when everyone was listed that way. I don’t see your name as pro, but when I look at my postings it has it. I still get ads, so I know I’m just a regular reader.

pookid54, you are absolutly and totally correct!

Thanks pookid54 !

pookid, very cool story. And surprisingly it’s true (I’ve read too many cool stories that have nothing to back it up so I check on everything)

pookid, I got it too, from my uncle. Sad. So very very sad.

people will probably be seeing postings and emails similar to the one posted by pookid in the next month. sadly most of them are about WWII , Korea and Vietnam vets or casualties, but i have yet to see any about those involved in the Middle East. With all due respect , I salute all veterans Past ,Present and Future

Pooohkid That was a great story. I would only disagree with your last entry. While it was, as you say, about the priorities of press and the media, it was also about what we didn’t know - the bravery of this man - I wouldn’t want that to be overlooked DESPITE the sensationalist seeking media.
