Alice likes a little disagreement? Perish the thought. (Stealing Dick's style!).

As for killing always being wrong, what about those in the military? The sole purpose of an army is to kill. I'm not trying to defend myself by asking that because I don't care. But blanket statements don't cover every situation.

I have grave concern for anyone, or any nation, that uses brute force to solve problems. I believe there are better ways to solve problems.

Marie, she is so far from being your kind of person that by comparison a trip to the moon would be nothing more than a walk to the corner store.

Merri, you are right. The problem is no one has ever figured out that better way.

Just call me Rotten Malice.

I wish I could speak about the french lady but vowed I wouldn't, so I won't.

A vow of silence. Oh, wow. One more reason I could never have been a nun.

Dick,

If the Germans had succeeded and occupied the UK, they would have had me to contend with eventually. Doesn't bear thinking about, does it?

I once took a vow to be a Nun. Didn't work out. Took another vow to fly a spaceship. They won't let me near the cockpit. Another one to be the first to swim to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in the Mariana Trench without diving equipment. Made it about 3.4 feet deep and had to surface. Me and vows don't seem to ever be on the same page.

I once read about a two guys in the Senate who were on the same page, but the story got buried in the late edition of the afternoon news.

See what too much time and too little to do will actually lead a person to.

England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales would be free but Elizabeth II would reign over us.

Get a life, Don.

What is this word, silence, that you are bandying about? I've never heard of it. scratch

They tell me floppy wrists can be quite useful in certain situations. Don't know myself, but that's what I've heard.
