I was thinking it was really nice of your mommy to let you stay up late, but then I remembered that school is now out for the summer. Just try snd keep the noise down around the house. The adults have to get up and go to work in the morning.

It's funny you mentioned that, I would have figured you would have been at Gilley's by now....

Nope, I quit going there after they took down the rebel flag. Your state still flies it though, right?

I am still waiting for someone to produce a veteran who thinks that Muhammad Ali was a hero. I doubt that one exists.

"Laura and I are saddened by the death of Muhammad Ali, The Greatest of All Time. I gave Ali the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2005 and wondered aloud how he stayed so pretty throughout so many fights. 'It probably had to do with his beautiful soul. He was a fierce fighter and he's a man of peace, just like Odessa and Cassius Clay, Sr., believed their son could be.'
"Muhammad Ali was an iconic and historic figure who thrilled, entertained, influenced, and inspired millions. Americans will always be proud to have been in his corner and called him one of our own.
Laura and I send our heartfelt condolences to Muhammad Ali's family and friends."

I was going to have several responses to your post so I put this as the first one and then realized he didn't serve! but it's a pretty good one from someone you probably voted for...and the ONLY thing I have ever agreed with Bush on!!

I was talking to my Dad yesterday. He was an Army Ranger during the Vietnam War, is a proud veteran, can recite military history from throughout the 20th Century, and he had nothing but complimentary things to say about Ali.

I concur, Leon, lock it. The truth is just to hard to accept for some people.

If you find yourself writing about something other than pre-war baseball cards on this forum, I would encourage you to find another place to do it. While it is possible for those of us who are disinterested in learning the political or religious leanings of pre-war baseball card collectors to just skip the thread or try to ignore it, the unhealthy effect such discourse has on the one thing that brings us all here is inevitable.

Here you are George!!!

Ali was a hero to his country. There is a difference between country and government.
