I flew out last Sunday to El Paso, TX. We hung out at a little gate at DFW airport waiting on the plane. As you can probably imagine, there were quite a few service men waiting on the flight in their uniforms. Fort Bliss is located in El Paso. I had said my thanks to some random soldiers as I waited on my flight. When the plane was ready to board the gate agent announced that they would be allowing those in the service to board before first class. What was really great is that these people got a standing ovation from everyone there. Cheers went out and these people were a bit embarrassed but grateful to be treated like the good and decent human beings that they are. As I got on the plane I noticed first class was full of men in uniform. I later found out that everyone in first class had given up their seats for them. I don't know if you have ever flown first class, but it's not cheap and it sure is comfy! It turns out almost everyone on the flight was in the service. It was really touching to see these people given the honor and respect deserved by our troops. Keep up the good work, folks.....we are getting there. --Fullstate Me and Mah 'Priller!
With all that warm heart, Albert.. feel free to enlist in a branch of the military .. Really show you support Albert.. go help 'em.. Some of those folks would love to get back to their families and their motorcycles, jobs and other things that you blithely take for granted.. Instead of all this nonsensical support on a newsgroup, maybe you could manage a visit to a VA hospital, or some damned thing.. Mewling little phony...
Hey Trash... here's a thought.. You and Albert Nurick might consider doing something REAL meaningful and enlist in a branch of the military, this week.. Get you fat ass over there and support those guys, maybe some of them might get to come home to the families.. huh ? That's meaningful.. No.. I thought NOT.. that's too meaningful for you, isn't it ? Soooo... since that is "out".. Maybe you and Albert could get together and just make the rounds of a few of the VA hospitals to make sure those guys got everything they need.. Bet you don't do that either.. All your SUPPORT seems to consist of your phony, mewling, drivel on a usenet group.. Send me another e-mail.. you trashy tramp..
Nothing in my posts to those two idots responding to your noteworthy post has any bearing on it's merit.. Any time a group of Americans are appreciative of our men and women in uniform , I am delighted.. The VA hospitals around the country are filling up with those military men and women each week.. Even though it is out of the way .. any effort to visit with them and make sure they are getting the treatment and attention they deserve is another way to show support.. When people like the two responding to your heartwarming post, respond as they have.. I must admit.. I am disgusted.. Please excuse my responses to them for that is not a reflection of my feelings toward your commendable post and observations.. Just these two disgusting examples of indecency...

I don't take it personal, Bill. I know that not everyone on the group gets along with each other. And based on the limited amount of knowledge I have regarding these situations I have my own opinions. I'll tell you what, though. When I get back after a couple of weeks if I am able to ride - which I think I will be - you and I will take a day ride to get some catfish. Any VA hospitals you want to hit en route are fine by me. ;-) --Fullstate Me and Mah 'Priller!

I am a little disappointed that your buddy BW couldnt refrain from thinking negatvie, in his response to your supreme positive "post". I thought as I read your personal comments of something so touching, that I just knew this would be a thread of nothing but nice sentiments...on down the line...no negativenss......should I feel this way? Am I wrong, Mr. fullstate? Bjay..9.22.04@555pm.
No, I don't think you are wrong.....but I don't take it personal that folks on the group can't get along. It would be nice to see a positive thread stay positive, though. ;-) --Fullstate Me and Mah 'Priller!
