    You should have painted it red, white and blue in memory of all those MIA's
    from the Korean and Vietnam Wars.

    And just what color do you think the POW/MIA flag is????? That's a
    BIG reason it's BLACK.......

    Oh....and I only managed to walk the entire length of the wall once.
    By the time I got to the other end I was beside myself in tears. I
    cannot walk the length of it. I have to stand back and watch others
    go by as it's a bit too hard to do that.

    Thanks for the support Jimmy!!!!!

    Neither your Verdi nor your Part do anything for me oddly enough. Slow
    moving music without much melody will depend a lot on the harmonies
    employed. The Gorecki affects me deeply, but I can't explain exactly why. I
    note that Jim McNamara also experienced it the way I did. Music is the most
    mysterious of all the arts.


    To me the Gorecki was rather formless and left little impression.

    To each his own, it seems.

    Verdi was an excellent composer of operas until he got too dramatic like
    Wagner. Opera for me is all about song, not about drama. By the way, Verdi
    also wrote excellent ballet music for his operas.

    The call of "libera me" in Verdi's setting is not for the dead, but a
    transcendent call for deliverance of the living, unmatched by any other.

    Quoted message said:

    I think composing music,
    especially opera, is a young man's game.


    Good that "Papa" Haydn did not think that way. His greatest work was in
    his last decade as an active composer.

    You're welcome. I walked the length of the wall only once ... a
    moving experience and have seen the "moving wall" a couple of times.
    I though you might know that about 50 miles from you location the
    moving wall will be about 50 miles awasy in nearby Elkhorn this year
    (06/19 - 06/23).

    The insensitive misanthrope Dolan knows nothing of the sacrifice, pain
    and suffering that will haunt others for the rest of their lives. I
    presume his time in the Navy was a none to traumatic peacetime stint.

    Tom Sherman learned this many years

    Now why do you suppose that is? Well, because Tom undoubtedly
    realizes that you are, as you have indicate in the past, all about
    opinion (monologue) and refuse to debate an issue (engage in
    dialogue). What are you afraid of other than being made out to be
    wrong? In a recent post, Tom indicated that you are wrong about most
    things. He's right of course.



    To state the obvious. 😉

    Tom Sherman has never been right about anything in his life. He is a

    He is probably going to vote for the Black Man this November if he gets a
    chance. Just how wrong can one get.

    Well, I have only cast a vote for Barack Obama twice in my life so far,

    Me? Solicit others' opinions? That idea has never occurred to me in my
    entire life!

    Two letters come to mind her ... B & S. In this thread alone, there
    are many examples you badgering me for my wife' opinion and that
    qualifies for solicitation of opinion no matter what kind of spin you
    try to put on it. If you are going to lie to me and the readership
    (not uncommon by the way), at least use some imagination and make it
    believable. Don't insult our intelligence by pissing over our
    shoulders and try to convince us it's raining.

    Hells Bells, I don't care what your wife thinks about anything under the
    sun just as I don't care what you think about anything under the sun. I
    was just trying to determine if she is as crazy as you are. If you have
    been married for more than 2 minutes, I suspect she is, although mistakes
    can be made in that department of life.

    The issue is people trying to stay busy creating issues where there are
    none. Trying to look smart. I am sure someone will get a great big bonus
    check for an award for writing this non -thing.
