Whiskey for my men beer for my horses. You can get out to the track if you walk thru the paddock you can walk out right where the horses come out. I just hope i stop the whiskey at one.
I was thinking about your thread.

Any day is a good day to give... this is just a thought.

Maybe it would be nice to celebrate his life on the 29th and do something, no matter how small.....

For anyone interested.....

Okay I really don't know who the "who" is here.....

Does what she did with the money justify who she "took" it from?

If so, is it such a bad thing?
