My wife and I would be ****ed if we saw any of our kids acted that way: like
little kids. When my wife and I are gone, I want to be assured that
everything will go smoothly between them. Things appear to be moving in the
right direction.

I know what you mean. I forgot what it's called over here. Typically it will
be on the bottom of a two story structure. I guess you must have raised your
grands' parents well. Congrats.

As per my speshial rule #29 which states that I am not allowed to hassle people with mental problems or whom might be a little "retarded", I can't comment on that. That would just be mean and unfair.

I'm not so sure my aunt died peacefully. There was a gash on her head.
She either slipped and hit her head on a table and no one was around to
help her, or she had a stroke and hit her head after she fell. No way
of telling. At any rate, it doesn't sound "peaceful". I'm sure she
wished she was in her bed. I miss talking with her.

My aunt died a few years ago. She was in the hospital and fell out of her bed and died. I think it was an easy death. I don't know why they didn't have a rail to make sure her bed was safe. Whatever, she had a nice goodbye. A great woman who some pieces of shit would say worked for the nazis.

Nazis were mostly very nice people. They were no different from any

Here's a really funny story for you. This must have been true
because I read in my real newspaper, not on the internet.

Late some night, an old lady walking down the street in NYC,
accompanied by a priest. A guy, with a long criminal record
of minor crimes mugged them both. Punched them both out then
ran off with the woman's purse.

People saw that and caught the mugger so he was arrested.

In the jail, detectives interviewed him and he didn't care.
He was all arrogant saying, yeah I mugged them. go ahead and
throw me in jail...I'll be out again in no time. ha ha ha

That's when the detective informed him of just exactly who
he had mugged. The old woman was John Gotti's mother and
the priest was his brother. At the time, John Gotti was the
NYC mafia godfather. LMAO!

The suspect visibly shut up and paled when he heard that.
EH-OH!!!!!! ;-o

Never heard any follow up about that but I seriously doubt
that fellow ever got out of jail alive.

There has been a couple of time I may have agreed with that.

The snow birds are returning here. The supermarket parking lot is more
crowded and some people fly down and have a Florida car. You see the
1974 Caddy HumungoDeVille with 6500 miles on it. Sometimes in the right
lane with the left turn signal on.

They make me feel young.

Germans citizens that worked for the Nazi's back then really
didn't have much choice. Refuse and be shot along with all the
rest of your family.

I dated a German girl whose father was regular german army
soldier during WW2. Not a criminal, just drafted to fight for his
country. (or else)

That's what she was hoping for.

There were also SS men who were drafted. I've tried to let the filth know of this, that they were not all crims. But the filth doesn't wish to believe the truth.

I watched a 3-hour documentary about the SS just a few days ago.
Hitler's private army.
It was interesting. Many but not all were evil. Some didn't even
realize what they had signed up for until it was too late.

Regardless, we shouldn't judge what happened that long ago.
Very different times and conditions. Easy to sit back and judge
now after all those years. (totally world gone insane years)

And how about those evil Japanese back then?

Don't let a few bad apples spoil the barrel.

How about the Vietnam war? I'll bet you that most of the
"evil" north vietnam kids didn't want to fight either.

I recently watched a 15 hour documentary about Vietnam. I felt sorry
for the Vietnamese, for the American soldiers and for their relatives.
The American decision makers, however, should have been hung.

Nixon, for instance, didn't care how many Americans and Vietnamese
died. He only cared about re-election. His predecessors weren't much
better.

Nixon ended the war but I noticed that he stalled that until
he got re-elected. At the end, we just pulled out and let
the north win. The entire war was just many worthless deaths
on all sides.

Meaning he's responsible for many extra dead on both sides.

Reminds me of Reagan who made sure American hostages in Teheran
weren't freed before he had been re-elected.

Definitely. Cold war madness and the inability to admit defeat.

They're called "mother-in-law suites" in the states. Why mother-in-law? My guess is that something happened to father-in-law. Probably something not good. OTOH, Asians are used to living with multiple generations under one roof so that's not that big of a deal.

I'm beginning to think that Asians are really speshial people.

Not All Waffen SS men joined up. Many were conscripted. And many of those who were volunteers joined in order to fight communism. There were foreign WSS people who joined in order to throw off the yoke of CCCP. The WSS were about as evil as the RAF.
