Why I am so very *pissed* at Bob Hope!!!

[Melinda]

The old fart died on my birthday. Talk about taking my key light!! :evilgrin:

RIP old soul; we may not have shared a political philosophy but I'm sure you felt you did right in your own way.

So Happy Birthday to me and all other DUers born on this day - let's eat cake anyway!! :toast:

17. More than once when I have IMHO over reacted

I have read a post by you and cooled my jets. Thankyou for that!

[Melinda]

21. At the risk of being deemed a "dittohead"

:)

Today has been one of introspection and reevaluation for me, nsma, and I'm off to put my thoughts on paper. While I have much to be thankful for, I find it hard to take joy in recognition of this event when our troops lose their lives, their limbs, their families lose it all, innocents die, our world suffers as it does, mothers cry, babies hunger... my entry into the world means very little -- It's what I do, what we all do with the time that we have here that can and should make a difference. And I hope you'll share a thread with me about this later tonight.

Thank you again.
Melinda

18. Hey, happy birthday!

I'm a glass-half-full type. He might have stolen your thunder, but think about it this way: it could be worse, you could be in his shoes.

26. The good news is that people WILL forget that Bob Hope died on

this date. Pearl Harbor was attacked on my mother's birthday and nobody ever forgot that!

Happy Birthday! :toast:

[LynneSin]

27. Frank Sinatra died on my birthday

which pissed off my now ex-boyfriend - he had bragging rights to the fact that Elvis Presley died on his.

Personally, I'll take the 'Chairman of the Board' any day of 'The King'
