    One doofus or an annoying trend in socks?

    In the 1980's a church member was regularly accompanied by her attention seeking husband who was always dressing in the style mentioned earlier. One day he arrived with half of his mustache shaved off. Being a smart teenager I had to ask. His response was, "just trying out the look". My reply...

    Are FLers opimistic about the future?

    I agree w/ Lizzy Maine , we are moving backward. It only takes a thought a word or a smile to be kind. We are moving back word because of parents who fail to instill these values.

    Are FLers opimistic about the future?

    If common courtesy's like "thank you" , "please" and "holding a door for a stranger" are not a part of your future than..... Yes this means the world is changing. Mankind is changing and not for the better. When was the last time not from a sales clerk you heard the previous...

    Adult Boys

    Lizzie, as a full-time firefighter/emt for 18 years I have certainly seen my share of irresponsibility, addiction, and tragedy. We also must clean up our squad, uniforms, and tools after people "evacuate". I have no ax to grind nor soap box to preach from. End of my post(s) on this topic.

    Adult Boys

    Lizzie, I think most here agree that fundamental values are important. That said this thread morphed into another topic. I have read a number of your threads which I have found both educational and insightful. But when it comes to alcohol as a topic imho your approach becomes repeatedly...

    Drunkenness is to alcohol what fornication is to sex. The Bible does not condemn the enjoyment of either when its in accord with God given boundaries.

    Adult Boys

    The bible uses wine literally and metaphorically as a gift from God. His son Christ Jesus in his first miracle provided more wine of high quality, after the guests consumed the wine that was provided by the wedding couple. That said, Jesus openly condemned drunkards as those not inheriting the...

    WW II Pilots wearing ties?

    Since we can bring forward pictures to provide evidence of ties, no-ties, regulation shirts, sweaters, t-shirts, and coveralls. What is the answer? As a point of reference, did Frank Savage or his men wear ties on missions in Twelve O' Clock High? I can't remember. In the movie he was the...

    WW II Pilots wearing ties?

    I believe this topic could diverge into two separate topics, either AAF or RAF. W/ AAF we can provide pictures on the air strip/ run way proving the answer , yes they did wear them on air assignments or not. If you or I were a pilot we would enter the plane wearing whatever our c.o...

    WW II Pilots wearing ties?

    Was it in the regulations, clearly yes. Was it enforced is the question really. Probably varied based on the C.O. and base location. If you were stationed on a major command base (8 AF) w/ all the Brass walking about perhaps. This would not be the same environment as being stationed in the...

    Some pics from boxes of old negatives I bought

    Sad but my wife and I have pictures from both sides of the family. Grandparents talked about their great aunts/uncles, first and second cousins, etc. My grandfathers Aunt was the one who took him and his Bros. from the orphanage and raised them as her own. They never labeled their pictures w/...

    The Man who refused to salute

    On top of that no hat to shade his face or identity. Notice notice his head is held high. Standing firm in the faith. Brother is a rock. Probably was interned or shot for that.

    The Man who refused to salute

    Probably a Jehovah's Witness. If you have been to the Holocaust Museum In Washington D.C. these folks refused to buy a party card, salute or say, "Heil Hitler" The individuals of this group could easily have "publicly renounced" their religion and practiced their faith underground. How would...

    Working Out Killing My Hourglass Physique

    Just work out and feel healthy. What you look like as a result is totally secondary. Your personal health should always be in first place.
