How Many Untold Stories Are there like this???
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 10:30 PM by ls317
Sgt. Robbie Doughty motors around his hometown of Paducah, Ky., in his retrofitted pickup with a big to-do list: drop off his 20-month-old son, Derek, at the day care center; open a pizzeria; learn to live with artificial legs.

1. Can you imagine the questions from his son???
"what happened to your legs Daddy? how did they get cut off? why were you fighting with other people Daddy?"

The poor kid will not know of the implications of his questions until he's 25 and paying outrageous taxes to erase the debt this damned administration piled on us.
