So many great quotes & so true, we must be ever vigilant. I hope you will forgive me pointing out there are two words missing from the Winston Churchill quote. “Never was so much owed by so many, to so few.”- Winston Churchill  "Men need to hunt. She obviously understands this. She’s offering herself as prey. Not easy prey. But willing.”

aliljaded, thank you for such sincere words. We all need to knee for those who lost their life so we can be free. It is a sad day but let us hug our family members and friends, enjoy our freedom that so many gave their lives for, may they look down to see that their lives did mean something. I for one, will raise my glass (or beer) and say, 'Cheers' to them, with the greatest of respect. happily collared, branded la kajira of MASTER ADOMIS4U2
