That is YOUR ASSumption. Apparently you did care...you're speaking from both of your mouths again. LOL

Well, I still don’t agree with you, and half-cursing and childish name calling only reinforces that. 😁

No cursing...just telling you what you truly are. The only reinforcement here is that you're an ass and an idiot at the same time. Straightforward enough?
 
Former Republican strategist Steve Schmidt joins Nicolle Wallace to discuss his reflections on President Jimmy Carter's famous 'malaise speech,' once viewed as something the American public did not want to hear and now more relevant than anyone could have expected.

are you including me in that "pot shot" declaration joe?........ i am a part of that generation too.... actually a few years younger than huk.... ..according to some here i don;t read english very well.... .. but i think i read what you posted clearly enough.....

..i always thought a "pot shot" was taken with a rifle and aimed at one person.... ... but apparently some would rather use an indescriminate shotgun blast and take out his own friends as well..... :(.. ..anger is like fire.. and ceases to be a servant when it becomes your master.... . i think yours got away from you... .

OMG. I was paraphrasing :rolleyes:

I give up.

Just go stack marbles. The both of you.

i see.... so it;s "paraphrasing" when you do it... and "lies" when it comes from someone else....... ...got it......

and for your information marbles are easy to stack.... with a billiard triangle you can stack hundreds of them.... thousands if they are small enough..... add some super glue and nobody will be able to unstack them.....

now why don;t you go sit with your new friend on his broken down sofa and swat flies...... that;s also easy ..... and with the way you stink up the forum you should have no shortage of flies to swat..... hope you enjoy yourself.. ... and be careful you don;t swat each other.... ...

I’ll concede it isn’t an appropriate song for church. I won’t read into it more than that. I wouldn’t play it at my funeral, but I guess each person can do whatever they wish at that time.

true..... everyone should be able to pick whatever song they like to be played or
performed at their funeral..... whether anyone else likes it or not.. ...it;s simply
showing respect for one final request....

this is the one i want performed at my funeral..... ... they can play a pre-recorded
track of it or sing it in person if they like...... but whoever sings it better do it right
or i;ll come out of that box and beat the crap out of them...... :cautious:

Don’t worry, I think he was referring to me. In all fairness, I probably got a little too annoying with the Jimmy Carter thread…but at least it got people talking on here! 😬

it is bit sad i guess.... ... but there;s too many people in my moms family.. and now my adopted dads family too.. who say they will dance on my grave... .. so i don;t want to have music too festive as that might encourage them to dance at my funeral too.... ;). ..... they can bring their own music to the cemetary for grave dancing if that;s really what they want to do...... ....and in a way i;d still feel honored by that.. ..... just knowing they went to the trouble to fly all the way over here from the mainland to do it.... . :sneaky:

All joking aside, in my legal will I’ve actually requested no funeral service. My directions are to be cremated and have my ashes spread in the Gulf of Mexico (sorry…America). Hmmm…wonder if I need to update my will…🤔

a lot of people do that here... . friends and family of the deceased paddle out on surfboards and in canoes and scatter the ashes out at sea.... usually close to sunset.... any funeral service they have is held out there.. .....

that;s how my natural sisters funeral and ashes was handled.... all done by her friends and coworkers..... i was not allowed to go and was given a number of different reasons.... one was because i was a non-swimmer and my sisters friends could not be trusted... . but another was because i was technically a ward of the state in the custody of my moms brother at the time - and he wasn;t interested in going out there so i could not go either... ,,the social worker told me knowing the group it would be a miracle if one of them going didn;t drown out there... ..she handled cases of some of their children that had been referred to cps.....

but you probably should update your will....... not that it can;t be over ridden if a family member makes a case to a judge - and says they will be driven to greater grief if not allowed to give you a funeral..... ... but it;s still good to have......

Technically I’ll have a funeral, just not a traditional funeral. The boat that handles the cremation does a mini funeral service on the boat before the ashes are scattered. It’s basically a family only type deal. I have no interest in anything beyond that. Of course, I won’t be around to say anything if anyone challenges that. My grandfather had also requested no funeral, but that didn’t sit well with my grandma, so they did a little family only deal. And he was entitled to a WW2 veteran service, but that just wasn’t his speed.

i know a few people who are entitled to official funerals like your grandfather... but don;t want that kind of big deal made over them... .. but i have also been to several official funerals done with full regalia and even a few parades complete with drums and pipes, for firefighters medics and police who died in the line of duty.... and also a few military funerals for service members killed in the war.... ..and in every case they died suddenly before they ever gave the idea of their own funeral a thought...... most were young and all were unexpected and even tragic.... i cried at every one of them ... though i didn;t personally know any of them....

Yeah, I have no issue with the veterans who choose to do the full honors service. It’s a very cool thing to see and attend. In my grandfather’s case, he just didn’t want any fuss made over him. He had the same mentality when he was living. My wife’s grandfather was a Korean War veteran as well, but he requested no military honors at his funeral service because he didn’t see any war action (he got drafted near the end of the war), and he didn’t feel it was appropriate for him to receive the funeral recognition when he knew guys coming home in body bags and with permanent war wounds. I don’t think either of them turned their noses up on people who did choose honors, it just wasn’t for them.
