I had a friend who was in the Cavalry in WW I. He decided to have his way
with a filly. Climbed up on a crate behind her, whipped out his member and
lifted her tail. The filly looked over her shoulder and not liking what she
saw, kicked the crate out from under him. When she kicked again, she broke
his leg! Yep. He got a Purple Heart medal, but still limped in the early
1950's!

You have an honorable family history, convict! ;-D
I, too, hope you never have to go to war, Bert. While war is sometimes
necessary, I hate it!

Don't be watering my whisky down with any ice cube!
Cheers (Slainte), mate. Lang may yer lums reek!

Nick. Support severely wounded and disabled Veterans and their families!
I've known US vets who served as far back as the Spanish American War.
They are all my heroes! Thank a Veteran and Support Our Troops.
You are not forgotten. Thanks ! ! ~Semper Fi~
