Contempt for Chickenhawks and Chickenshits

Note: I am a super-patriot, and sometimes I want to puke on the flag then blow my nose on it. Sometimes I get choked up when I see it. Depends on who it flies over. When it flies over astronauts and Marines and free people, it's a thing of grandeur. When it's flown by chickenshits, it's nothing but a gaudy fucking rag. -drl

I always thought Josey Wales was modelled after him. Hardcore to the bone then treated people decent afterwards. thanx, bill will work for cash and other incentives [link\|http://home.tampabay.rr.com/boxley/Resume.html\|skill set] [link\|http://home.tampabay.rr.com/boxley/index.html\|boxley's home page] qui mori didicit servire dedidicit

Turns out his family tree is rooted in the same bunch of Lunsfords from North Carolina as my family. I was pretty stoked to discover that! [link\|http://www.audiemurphy.com/\|Great site!] -drl

He transferred to the Dallas, TX before the company folded operations here. Alex "Resort is had to ridicule when reason is against us." -- Thomas Jefferson
Post #51,059 by deSitter 9/8/02 9:19:03 PM Reply	Cousin Trevis -heh- don't really know Murphy's family's path goes through the little town of Suches, Ga. in the mountain foothills about 50 miles N of Atlanta. I was in that town passing a little church with accompanying graveyard across the road - about 100 stones, some quite old (mid 1800s). My buddy had told me about this place he had seen in N. Ga., a small church and graveyard where 4 out of 5 stones were Lunsfords. So I thought this might be it and pulled over quickly - sure enough I see my own name on most of the stones. I left a note on the church door but never heard back. Some of those people were no doubt direct ancestors of Murphy. Eventually they ended up in Texas, around the time of the war. Could be they had nothing to eat, the provisions having been commandeered by Yankees and desperados. The south is still a real separate country, with its own families and migrations, mostly immigrants from Ireland and Scotland and rough places in England, trying to settle down. -drl

Fine folks but canny and to themselves. thanx, bill will work for cash and other incentives [link\|http://home.tampabay.rr.com/boxley/Resume.html\|skill set] [link\|http://home.tampabay.rr.com/boxley/index.html\|boxley's home page] qui mori didicit servire dedidicit
