Yep, all those campers comin up 285 the last few days aren't comin up here to hold candlight vigils..That was my point
And on that subject, how sad it is that one measley extra day off turns into this for many of us..They live right on top of eachother down there, then they all migrate up here all at once to "camp" on top of eachother up here- There's got to be more to look foward to in life than that..
Ah......after thinking about it- I think i made a mistake in starting this thread. It's incredibly insensitive to those who have lost loved ones in these conflicts. I can't imagine the grief of losing someone close to me and I don't want to add to that misery in anyway. I sincerely apologize. I wish I never started it, as usual, I wasn't thinking

Don't you start one of these threads every year? I usually agree with you on this subject but this is the one weekend to let your political views rest and honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Whatever the politics behind it, they gave up their lives in service to our country and deserve your respect.
