    We're dealing with infantile personalities here.

      Considering that you list yourself as a former infantryman, this fits.

      Infantry (and infant) are derived from the Latin words for "not" and "speaks".

      Your effectiveness as a forum administrator is questionable, given your petty insults and sophomoric behavior. You do nothing but further erode what little credibility you might have.

      So take a cue from the lesson, and speak a little less when your not effectively performing your duties as further demonstrated by your continuous poor judgment.

        Infantry is defined today in our dictionaries as:

        in?fan?try
        /ˈinfəntrē/
        Learn to pronounce
        noun
        soldiers marching or fighting on foot; foot soldiers collectively.
        "the infantry advanced at sunrise"

        Who gives a rats butt what a word meant 1,000 years ago.

        Just a few years ago (1950s) gay meant a jolly playful individual or song.

        Does your mother know you are gay, is a question easily answered 50 years ago so what would be your answer today?

        adjective: gay; comparative adjective: gayer; superlative adjective: gayest
        1.
        (of a person) homosexual (used especially of a man).
        "the city's gay and lesbian people"
        Similar:
        homosexual
        lesbian
        lesbigay
        LGBT
        GLBT
        homophile
        relating to or used by homosexual people.
        "a gay bar"

        2.
        DATED
        lighthearted and carefree.
        "Nan had a gay disposition and a very pretty face"
        Similar:

            Why would somebody work that in the first place does not need to and in the second place is totally disabled. I paid into SS starting in 1955 and paid into it for 50 years. I was disabled with a burst fracture of a lumbar vertebrae in 2005 where I lost all feeling in my lower legs and feet. In 2018 I bought a newly built 1275 square foot 3 BR home for $157,000 cash. A exact same floor plan house a block away just sold for $218,000. I have other investments and zero debt. I don?t have a single reason to work and yes I get SS just like everybody else but I would be getting a more if I had put the same money in one of my other investments.

            And yes the First Admendment gives me the right to call FDR a low life socialist that got law after unconstitutional law enacted and did nothing to end the Great Depression. Hitler and Hirohito took care of that.

            Stick Trax where the sun does not where.

              FDR. Don't forget the gold he stole from all the Americans.

                You are not happy.

                Vern, you can keep adding infractions to prove my point. Hopefully you're also flagging others to this unposted forum standard.

                At this point you are simply flagging for your own enjoyment...and not in an administrator capacity.

                  Actually RED new deal programs in the 1930s improved nutrition among the masses, so when war came, they had more able-bodied men to work with. Contrast that to the British, who didn't bother, and were scrambling for manpower.

                  Good old jouster2, where people are pining for Herbert Hoover.

                    Teddy Roosevelt would be off the list.

                        It amuses me when I read Trax's signature at the bottom of his posts. "The first gun fired at Ft. Sumpter was the death knell of slavery". Guess he doesn't know history or doesn't care, but has he ever heard of Harper's Ferry?

                          You'll have to ask the guy that made the quote.

                          Don't make presumptions and you'll be better served.

                          Why do you believe political fervor should be universally displayed across all groups?

                          Trump had rallies, but what demographic goes to rallies anymore? Biden had low attendance, but who's in the White House? See where this is going?
