This may sound weird, and perhaps working at a school I should know this, but when I was in school a typical quiz/test question would be: "when was Pearl Harbor bombed" or What happened on Dec. 7, 1941?" I wonder if this is still studied? Or, as pointed out by others, as the time goes on, and as people who lived during/through it pass away, will it be merely a minor topic discussed American History classes?

As for saying "Happy Pearl Harbor Day", thats the biggest crock of doody I've read on these boards. Would you say "Happy 9/11 Day" every year???


Reminds me of a soundbite I heard from a few months ago...when James Brolin (Mr. Barbra Streisand) called a local radio station on Sept. 11th, I think to plug his (then) new film. The jocks cordially reminded Mr. Brolin that they were in the middle of commemorating 9/11 and weren't thinking about movies at just that moment.

Brolin then abruptly shouted, 'OH, YEAH...HAPPY 9/11 !!!'

One of the jocks replied that they didn't really see it as a very 'happy' anniversary, that they had in fact lost friends on that day.

If I hadn't heard it with my own ears, I probably wouldn't believe it.

You are totally out of line!

Leave mothers and family members out of your personal arguements!



Don Cardi cool

Five - ten years from now, they're gonna wish there was American Cosa Nostra. Five - ten years from now, they're gonna miss John Gotti.

Eh!?!?!?!

I was asking how Apple's mother was because - according to her recent visits to the BB - she was of ill health. And I was genuinely concerned about that.

\:\/

If anything, DC, it was Apple who got personal (though I am just as curious as to why she called me an idiot as how her mother is doing, if not even more so).

Well Mick, if as you say you were sincerely concerned with the status of her mother's health, then I totally owe you an apology.

However it appeared as though you were replying to the attack that she made on you with one of your own in making a reference to her mother.

But if that was not your intention, then I apologize.

But it did look as though you were responding in a negative manner, with your reply, to her attack on you.

I had every reason to get personal after her attack, but I take pride in the fact I didn't.

It's all cool, though, 'tween me and you. \:\)
