Subject: RE: B.S. George W Attacks Boy Scouts
I have to share a true story about my youngest son. When he was about 8, it came to his attention that "they" were starting a cub scout troop in our neighborhood. An informational meeting was held one evening at the Church, just down the street from us. My son's mother and father dutifully walked with him to the basement of the Church. At the beginning of the meeting, the preacher rose, asked us all to stand, and started the meeting with a prayer.
My son's father (that's me) and his mother dutifully bowed their heads with everyone else. I can still see, and hear, young son Chris ask in a very loud voice "WHY'S EVERYONE LOOKING AT THE FLOOR?"
True story. To compound the problem, his mother and I started laughing and we just couldn't stop! We left the meeting early.
