    Your boat is your castle, but where most people live, people are always on the lookout for sex. I'm scanning my front yard right now through my binoculars.

    Just my memory. I remember both of those breakups.

    I believe the commitment to Loni came in the form a marriage certificate and the wedding vows. She also accused him of using drugs and being physically abusive. I've heard that physical abuse accusation before only with a relatively defenseless man.

    Sally Field, on the other hand, loved him deeply as he did her.

    There's at least a little good and at least a little bad in all of us. I just think it was more bad than good in Burt's case.

    Edit: By the way, I really enjoyed him in the movie 'Malone'. He was also good in 'Stick' and "Sharky's Machine".

    It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.

    Loni Anderson was a normal Hollywood divorce over money, and he was bankrupted.

    I'm surprised that you watch movies, if you hold actors to your religious rules. Do you judge the U.S. military by the same morality? You do know that they have continuous little missions in dozens of countries to kill people, don't you?

    I can't even follow your train of thought. I think it's got a lot to do with how you think you've pegged me.

    You say you're a liberal against the Iraq/Afghan wars, but you defend the need for the military to fight wars. It's easy to jump onto the bandwagon after it's too late...after your earlier moderate warmaking support eased the way for harder-core warmongers to lick some blood. Try opposing all war in advance.

    I know...the veteran's health care system keeps you alive, and you aren't about to bite the hand which feeds you. I can understand that.

    My ex-brother-in-law was Chief of Medicine at a veteran's hospital complex. (He ran it, although a younger MBA woman had the title of Administrator.) As soon as he retired, he committed suicide. His wife told his former coworkers that it was a natural death. It's like joining the Mafia. Like an addiction, once you join, you can't leave.

    It's starting to look like I'm picking on you lately, so I better move my attention to one of the hundreds of others on the board. There's HoopsSmith, HoopsJones, CupSomething, and that poor tortured guy you guys dragged over here, who apologizes for everything he writes. I have a great memory for names, and total freedom to pick anyone on the board, all 5.

    See, I never said that. You followed some sort of lengthy illogical thought that led to that false conclusion.

    Since I've never said anything about those two wars how on Earth could you know how I feel about them?

    As for the VA comment, yet again you have it wrong. Let's set that straight, I was all in favor of getting all disabled Veterans out of the health care system for about the first 20 years I was in it. At some point, I guess maybe two decades or so ago, it slowly evolved better and better until it now is better than I can get on the outside. My wife gets outside care so I've got something to compare with. I'm up at that hospital about four times a week and I've been using it off and on for nearly 50 years so I know quite a bit about what I'm talking about. My brother was also a full time patient at the VA beginning in the late 70s.

    Geez, I wish you'd quit trying to peg me and begin asking me what my views are on subjects.

    If I were you I'd stick to expressing my own views on subjects and quit telling others how they view subjects. Let the others express their own views or for God's sake ask them first.

    Okay, sorry, I got it wrong. You're in favor of Bush's wars. I don't know why you called yourself a liberal then. Maybe you meant only on social issues, not foreign policy. That contradicts your quasi-religious opposition to show biz sexual morés. Everyone has self-contradictions, so it's all okay.

    How do you reach these far fetched fantasies on my views? That's incredibly baffling. This last three sentences are truly baffling.
