Well, you've read the notes, the notes were paranoid and schizophrenic, and now it is time for you to post until the adolescent cows come home.

Fascinating notes, bk. On my eighteenth birthday I had to register with the Government, but thankfully was never called for duty. I don't think they do that anymore, do they?

Very difficult notes for those of us of a certain age to read. It was a different time and place, and many of us faced a crisis of conscious during those days.

I was completely through the process with a 1-A-O classification. But the month that I had my physical was also the month that the Lottery was put into effect, and my birthday was number 245 - meaning I spent the rest of the years of my eligibility with my file in a drawer.

It is still the law that 18 year old men must still register with the Selective Service branch of the Armed Forces.

Sorry I have been E & T things have been a big crazy lately.

Dad had his surgery Friday, they had to slice his leg from buttock to knee to get the tumor out of his thigh. It had wrapped arpund the main nerve of the leg as well as the muscles.

It seesm that he has not sustained any nerve damage as he can still wiggle his toes and move his foot on command. We are still awaiting the results of the biopsy.

I will try and check inmore often - it will depend on what happens with Dad.

Mom and Dad (77 and 79) live here in town and they were chauffering me to doctors' appointments and running errands etc etc for the past several months, now it is my trun to reciprocate

BK,

I planned it a little differently, less dramatic than you and I didn't poop my pants, but I didn't have to go into the service either.

Good news so far about your father, DR vixmom!!

At least there are lots of leftovers in the fridge, so I don't have to think up meals for a couple of days.

Good morning!

It's overcast here this morning, but the rain they predicted for the morning hasn't happened so far. It may come later than they expected. Chilly, too, so I'll have to wear something a little heavier than last week when I go out later to lunch.

DR S. Woody.

I don't think I ever answered you about my favorite Brosnan Bond. I like GOLDENEYE the best. In fact, I think each of his four Bond films get progressively worse. I like TOMORROW NEVER DIES more than THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUOGH which is far better than DIE ANOTHER DAY.

In terms of box-office, they were all big hits, and each one did better than its predecessor. So, someone liked them. I really thought the first three were entertaining escapist fare. The last one, not so much.

Re: the draft. I was lucky and got a fairly high lottery number and never had to confront any decision about the serving in the military...an occupation I suspect I would have been utterly unsuited for.

RE: the draft

I had a student deferment during my four years of college, but immediately upon graduation, I was sent my preinduction notice (which bk talked about in the notes).

Now, I was gay and I knew I was gay, but this was the early 1970s, and one never knew then what information you imparted to the military would end up getting back to employers, housing managers, etc. Younger people today have NO idea the kind of discrimination being gay entailed during this era.

At any rate, though quite a few guys claimed to be gay to get out of serving, I kept it to myself. I had been assured that should I be drafted, I would not be placed in an infantry unit. With a college degree and practice teaching experience and a teaching credential, I was assured I'd either be serving as a clerk in an office, or with some political wheel-greasing, I'd be teaching the children of army bigshots on some military post somewhere. Since my family were great friends of Senator Strom Thurmond who was quite pwoerful in national politics at the time, I knew I'd have the pull to get a teaching appointment if I got drafted.

So, even though they never reached my number, I was fully ready to go in if I got called.

Today I'll be watching the DVD of Criterion's IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES for my work project. The movie isn't quite two hours long, but there are a fair number of bonus features attached, so it looks like I'll be working on this for most of the day.
