Re: NPR

Really? Can you supply me with some percentages of numbers about this 'faith-based garbage' that you are referring to? And of the amounts going to these 'faith-based' organizations, what percentages of those amounts are going to activities that you abhor?

I was under the impression that these funds were going to (for example) places that provide 'standard' education, or places that assist the homeless, etc.

Now, can we compare that with the percentages that are spent on welfare, or on other aspects of public life that have no bearing on what the Constitution originally considered as under federal control?

I await your response...

I would submit that the Federal Government has no business being in the charity business. Period. To argue that one party doesn't do as much as the other would doesn't negate the fact that NEITHER party should be engaged in charity. It isn't in their charter.

Oh, I agree! I just want to find out what the percentages of 'objectionable material' were that the previous poster was so upset about!

I'm not sure what it is.... but there's a strange joke / message, in that sentence..... depending how you read it. ZOUNDS! Another subliminal message for the group?

At first I thought it a weak American imitation of the BBC's "My Word!", but now it has really grown on me, though I rarely hear it at the time our stupid NPR station plays it (Sunday evening). Roy Green, Atlanta

LOL!

I have a habit of sticking them after numbers. Example: The rocket had a cluster of three D12's.

Bad habits are hard to break!

You got it! That's the one where they drained Lake Michigan and filled it with hot chocolate, then had the RCAF drop a ten ton maraschino cherry into a mountain of whipped cream on top of it. The SFX were wonderful.

Of course, in today's Matrix-generated world, the whole concept is a "huh?" But it was hilarious in the Seventies, before Star Wars came out.
