Posted by: Grace62 [PM] [Ignore this user] Date: February 18, 2012 06:55PM Rudie I'm sorry that you don't understand the American custom of flying the flag at half-staff. If you find the tradition childish, and using this custom for a person like Whitney Houston is completely outside that tradition, you most definitely do not understand the custom. So perhaps refraining from comment, when you lack perspective, is the better course?

In my experience I have learned life does not always go according to the rules or to my plans *(:>* ymmv.

I'm not seeing an "outcry" here though-- is there somewhere else an "outcry" is going on? Sounds entertaining. Link?

The heros and warriors of this world come from every walk of life> They are farmers, they are developers, they are journalists, they go to MIT, Harvard, Stanford, they write the books and songs, they sing the songs, they have broken the bonds of domestic slavery, they do not only reside in our military. The list is huge. You write about dogma and rules Grace ~!~ I am ashamed as an earthling that you miss the holistic observations. You redundantly quote archaic points of view with little passion or original thought. I suggest you consider being a trend setter, moving forward unrestricted by dogma. Or re-read 1984 because you are projecting an Orwellian point of view imho *(:>* Rudie |
