Thomas Taylor:  

tter.There is little reporting of the way things really happened, why, and the consequences. I believe all races have racists. I do not like where the Catholic Church is heading since Vatican II. I believe in God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and hope they believe in me. I have little use for people who break their lover's hearts and just move on without even a good cry while rubbing salt in your wounds day after day.. Do I believe in positive things, of course, too many to list, but most of the negative things are positive if you think like me. When I die I want a party with a lot to drink and eat. The Irish believe one should cry when people enter this world and laugh when you check out. That is, unless you are on a fast track to hell. I hate all people who use religion as a reason to kill and hurt people. I also am not fond of those who say, what would Jesus say?. These people are just trying to justify something Jesus probably does not like. You know who you are. I now hate flying in airplanes and I do not know why except for some of those C130 take offs in Qui Nhon while sitting in a strap seat. It started in 1975. However, I love to travel. I have been to almost every state, Canada, Mexico, Viet Nam, Hong Kong, with stops in Japan and Okinawa. I stopped going to Mexico when they started kidnapping guys like me. I wonder why a veteran of the military must have weapons training to carry a gun. I love my wife and daughter. I love my siblings and in laws, and all of their kids. I am proud of them for many of the things they have accomplished especially my daughter who has been ill most of her life. She is the most intelligent and brave people I known, is a libertarian even though I am not, cares for sick people, loves her husband, and puts up with me, she has a master's degree and was sick through a lot of the schooling and had to start classes all over again. She loves her mother more than she even knows. I once did not go to confession for 35 years, and it took me an hour to spit it all out, and taxed my feeble memory I am still worried I forgot something.I miss my mother and father. I miss Dad's chili. I miss their knowledge. Soon, I will miss capitalism and patriotism. We are at the point where more people get government checks than do not and they like it and they vote along with those who are not eligible to vote. Maybe we should go back to the founder's who believed that only those who have property can vote. I believe that most college students enter college with a bowl full of jello in their head, and those who major in social programs come out with a hammer and sickle in their head courtesy of a bunch of people who like government, but would run if there was a draft. Those people make me want to vomit. I believe that most unions are people who pay dues to the rich, fat cat union elites. Did you ever see pictures of these people? I hate bullies. It took me a while, but I learned that when you fight a bully, you start off telling them that they may win, but they will be seriously hurt. Then, hit the SOB with every thing you have. Also, use guile when dealing with bullies, I did. If you seriously injure the bully in the groin, you may improve the gene pool. Love your parents and the rest of your family, even your crazy old aunt. They will be gone one day, and you will realize how much you love them and miss them. The pictured is my unit's tents and mess hall in Qui Nhon RVN. My tent was right next to the mess hall. All buildings built by soldiers in the company. In the back are the Central Highlands, Charlie's hang out. In 1969 the mess hall exploded.
