I took off word verification as an accommodation to a friend. I took off comment moderation because I want people to be able to comment freely.
But I can put both things back, so please, play nice. Included in "playing nice" is not dropping comments that are off-topic and only serve to promote your pet cause or, worse, a commercial product.
This is my soapbox, not yours. You do not make any friends or persuade people when you spam a blog or use another person's blog to promote your hot-button cause. Trust me on this one.
If you have a cause to promote, set up your own blog. If you do not know how to do that, send me nine grand (in non-consecutively numbered bills) and I'll set one up for you.

3 Brickbats Thrown:
Whew! I had to read the House Rules before leaving, anaconda I don't want to end up dinner for those foul fowl.
Should I read anything into the fact that the captcha heah is "chompee"?
Love your BlogSite! I've agreed w/everything I've read so far, so...no brickbats to toss at you...yet.
I have imagined my brother singing Learning to Fly somewhere in the great beyond, "My grubby halo, a vapor trail in empty air...."
"Sam" flew the Laos & Cambodia "illegal " missions in an A-37B out of Bien Hoa and
waited for the go code at Diego Garcia during the Iranian hostage crisis after they flew their F-111's down from Upper Heyford. He was trying to get out of 111's and into A-10's when he ran out of sky, along w/Yeager's nephew, in July 1980.
Whatever you call it... bad, sloppy maintenance or criminal negligence, the General Dynamics attorneys said, "its cheaper to pay off the families than it is to fix the airplanes. Sam & Paul's untimely end knocked the wind out of a lot of people. As I wrenched on every aircraft or space launch booster since Sam's death, I have never forgotten that crappy maintenance killed them.
Walking through Arlington last January I wondered, "With billions flowing for high tech weapons & trickles for body armor & MRAP's, America has just got to do better".
Anyway....I think they both would have loved your website as I do....let's call it philosophies & "tastes" in common.
Quivive, thank you for your nice comments. It seems as though GD took the same position as did Ford in the Pino fires.
