myLot Discussions| Okay...so the Eagles lost to the Cowboys... | | I was distraught that the Eagles lost...it was a great game. I couldn't believe how exciting it was. You'd think it was mid-season the way they were all playing.
How do you think they will fair against The Mighty Pittsburgh Steelers? Any predictions? I'm calling Eagles 27-Steelers 17. Any one want to join in the fun? | |

| | The Vietnamese Peasant Who Saved John McCain's Life | | We've all heard much about Senator John McCain's hero status as a former POW but here is a story you may not have heard:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-542277/How-war-hero-John-McCain-betrayed-Vietnamese-peasant-saved-life.htmlStart of excerpt:
"In all the tales of wartime courage peppering John McCain's presidential campaign trail, perhaps the most outstanding example of selfless heroism involves not the candidate but a humble Vietnamese peasant.On October 26, 1967, Mai Van On ran from the safety of a bomb shelter at the height of an air raid and swam out into the lake where Lieutenant Commander McCain was drowning, tangled in his parachute cord after ejecting when his Skyhawk bomber was hit by a missile.In an extraordinary act of compassion at a time when Vietnamese citizens were being killed by US aerial bombardments, he pulled a barely conscious McCain to the lake surface and, with the help of a neighbour, dragged him towards the shore."
End of excerptI've said for a long time that despite the fact that I'm not a supporter of Senator McCain based on his policies I could never take away from him the respect he'd earned as a war hero and POW. I've... | |
| | Packers, Steelers - What's the Difference Anyway?? | | We all know GOP Presidential candidate John McCain's service to our country and status as a war hero is without question and I've said many times how much I respect him for what he must have gone through as a POW in Vietnam for five years. Nothing can take that away from him or change the facts. His heroics have been documented in his 1999 best-selling memoir, Faith of My Fathers which was also made in to a movie of the same title. Here's an excerpt from the book:"“Once my condition had stabilized, my interrogators resumed their work. Demands for military information were accompanied by threats to terminate my medical treatment if I did not cooperate. Eventually, I gave them my ship’s name and squadron number, and confirmed that my target had been the power plant. Pressed for more useful information, I gave the names of the Green Bay Packers offensive line, and said they were members of my squadron. When asked to identify future targets, I simply recited the names of a number of North Vietnamese cities that had already been bombed.”"Now, let's fast forward to July 10, 2008. Yesterday in Pittsburgh, Sen. John McCain, professed his love for the Steelers to... | |
| | I don't care what he's wearing its NOT ok to spit on someone's burger | | http://www.komotv.com/news/17090031.htmlA man who was a cook and self proclaimed Seattle Seahawks fan spit on a burger that he made for someone just because he was wearing Pittsburgh Steelers garb spit on the hamburger he prepared for the man.DISGUSGTING if you want my honest not so humble opinion.[i]>Deputies said the 37-year-old man in Steelers garb took his daughters to a Mile Hill Drive fast food restaurant Saturday evening, and "began trading friendly barbs about his team and their victory over the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XL," reports said.One employee told the man that he'd "better not say that to the guy that's making your food," but the man thought it was a joke, reports said.That is, until he opened his "clamshell-style" hamburger container and discovered what he called a "loogie" on his hamburger. <[/i]Joking is one thing, however this went to far, the cook was arrested on 4th degree assault, and possession of marijuana booked and then released.How would you feel if this happened to you, would you have the man arrested for a 'joke', would you demand his job, would you sue the man?a lot of diseases can be transferred by saliva, so I... | |
