DON'T VICK ME

I just thought it a cool picture. But today it seems people are so sensitive. PC did that to us I believe.

And now some Native Americans (nee Indians) are complaining because Geronimo was used as a code word to hunt down Osama. The irony to me is the Navahos were famous for codes in WW II. The argument could be made that we couldn't have won without their assistance. But today's Native American gets in a huff over the use of Geronimo. I don't know, but with at least some Indian blood in my veins, I suppose if I ever jump out of an airplane, I won't yell out, "Geronimo". As per one suggestion, I guess I'll holler "Robert E. Lee," since he killed more Americans than Geronimo.

Of course, Michael Moore and France got into the act as well. Both saying we didn't give Osama a chance. Moore added that he should have been put on trial. I think Moore should have been put on trial for treasonous libel he spouted about President Bush, but now I suppose I'm getting petty.

While I'm at it, I have a surprise for Loyal Reader(s). I am against the bill(s) advocating making English the official language of our country. Why? Because it only makes sense. That's the language we speak. If immigrants want a different language, then maybe they should stay put. But if you come here, speak the language.

Finally, in our neighborhood, Fred was the wiener dog or dachshund. He was actually bigger than Chiquita, my chihuahua. German--Hispanic, they didn't care anymore than a couple of kids with Irish names playing with a couple of kids with German names.

But that was in the day when things made sense.
