I think people from a military background will not tell you who they are voting for. They take pride in their ability to vote. But they don't usually go and shove it in the face of others. Even thought Mr. Powell is retired, I think he will continue the same respect to the privilege of voting. i could be wrong, just ask my wife. Could he be bucking for a VP seat? hahahahaha My son got a text from his gf that her uncle's name is in a list for VP consideration. They were notified about getting possibly questioned. I don't know who it is yet. But this is a very small and strange world. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer Mimeo.com Memphis TN 901.246-0159 --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
