Whether you believe we did or didn't do the right thing getting into any of our various wars, please take a moment to think of those who died so young and innocent.

I despise shaving even under the best of circumstances. Now that I'm retired I'm lucky if I shave once a week. I certainly wouldn't shave out in the woods with no hot water. Years ago I had an "Amish...
I didn't have a "real job" until I was 31 (college, military, college) and wanted a family. Fortunately I had free tuition in MA state schools plus the GI bill because of being in the military at the...
