Re: .57 cents
I always check out stories before posting them. Most of the time they are true in regard to the basics, but embellishment occurs by others who want it to sound better.

Re: .57 cents
Temple University is a bastion for homosexual rights...It's sad to see the degeneration of morality in this country and the world while some folks major on minors.

Just get in the habit of checking out stories before sharing them. (MP shared some good links above.)
The story is true, except that it has been embellished, and considering the simple power of the original, it really didn't need to be. (We know YOU aren't the one who embellished it.)
Ferd is good people, I didn't take it personally, I just feel bad because I thought it was a good story and "I" was duped enough to post it.

What is interesting is that even the sites that tell the "real" story have differing stories.
One (Snopes) tells the $10,000.00 story and the other (Truth or Fiction) tells it quite a bit differently.
Good Story nonetheless!

No need to apologize, but thanks all the same. I really enjoy your political arguments.

We only post about checking out stories because too many times we did the same thing that you did. LOL!

True or not. Still uplifting. Thanks for posting it. Kinda like reading a book of fiction. It may not be true.... but its still a good story.
Like Star Wars. "A long, long time ago.... in a galaxy far away....". Not a true story (or is it?), but a good one anyway.
