I love my country, the United States of America.

My wife looked at me and said "are you crying?"

"No No, I’ve just got something in my eye" i replied

That's sort of the feeling I got when I visited The Mighty 8th Air Force Museum. It made me smile, salute, laugh and cry all in the span of the two hours I was there.

I should never have tainted your post with my harsh and hate filled slander, If you gain personal gratification with all the things you said then that in itself is a fine thing.

I believe there won't be much of that left in the turbulent times ahead, so take whatever things make you happy now and remember them no matter what they are.

You see, I don't understand how you can have a disgust for the things I did today. I'm not lashing, just confused.

Going to college, enjoying a beer and cigar, mowing my grass, enjoying the company of my dogs, and showing respect for my country's armed forces, how is any of that disgusting? I'm sure you do the same exact things I did today, or have the opportunity to do them when you want.

... Sorry for the edits, I spilled coffee on my keyboard last night and some of the keys get stuck.

It's ok, I don't dwell on things. We both indirectly share the same freedoms, America is not as bad as people want it to be, trust me.
