Hate to tell you this, Bobby, but my extended family in Nashville and
Alabama ARE still fighting the war.  Methinks the disabled community should
join us--funds would be easier disbursed from state or locally run programs
than from the national level.

On a lighter note--I watched a "pseudo" news show on the comedy channel last
night that featured Bob Dole doing commentary on the NH primary.  Now he is
one funny PWD!  He said that after McCain had used his military history to
his advantage as leverage on the campaign trail, Hillary Clinton is now
claiming that she was held as a POW for 14 years in Arkansas!  Haw! Haw!

Hey, come on you guys, ya'll are going to give the "northerners" on this
list the idea that we are still fighting the war. Bobby in Memphis, home of
the now infamous Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest.
