Hmm....

I hope you know I was kidding.

I don't give one shit less where someone is from, what
color they are,
or which God they subscribe to.

Living and growing up in a military town with (at one
time) with FIVE
bases here, you can only imagine what a melting pot we
have here for
citizenry.

I was just making an observation Robert, rather then
pointing a
finger.

Concerning your comment about five basis, you must be a
young
fella. The first time I visited Lackland (1955), there were
nine bases in
San Antonio. I can only remember seven of them right off
hand;
Lackland, Kelly, Brooks, Randolf, Ft Sam Houston, Medina and

Camp Bullis.

The Longhorn Saloon was still on the downtown main drag just
up
the street from the Alamo and Tony's spit shine was always
my
first pitstop when I got to town.

The Four Brothers Cafe (Steakhouse and Gay bar) was at 127
South Street, just about two blocks from the Alamo for the
best
steak in town for a dollar a pound. They
had pasta on the menu too, but they didn't serve anything
except
steak. That whole area was razed for the Hemisfair. I was
stationed
no less then six times in San Antonio. Always Security Hill
for duty
or Lackland for school.
