[BITList] is it from a 76 year old in UK?

[COLIN TAYLOR]

Hugh

this has been doing the rounds for a while, and purportedly attributed to various American individuals. – and I am surprised at myself for passing it on.

when I received it, it was supposedly from bill cosby. I am sure bill cosby never did national service – nor is he 76.

Various rabble rousers put their own slant on the original to enhance their point of view then distribute it as usual via the internet.

in this case some one mixed it up a bit more than usual – bringing in national service, bill cosby and his incorrect age.

such views are meant to inflame and are generally the work of right wing nuts with time or their hands and hate in their hearts – nuff sed!

incidentally, this is bill’s comments.............

There's an email floating around - entitled "I'm 76 and tired" - purportedly sent by me. I did not write the email, I did not send the email, I'm not 76, and I don't subscribe to the ugly views expressed in the email. We are coming up to an important anniversary on Sunday, which is a day when we should all come together. Whoever wrote this email is not thinking about our country, or what is important. If you get the email, it's time to hit DELETE.

as you mention, unburdening the writers dislikes with  a few glasses of the uisge beatha would not go amiss and might produce a more balanced, mature and mellow approach to current tribulations - some of which will always be with mankind.

Colin,

Apparently.

Regardless of apparently, why doesn't he/she have a large glass (or two) of a decent malt, and relax a bit. I'd hate to be burdened with such a load of dislikes.

Hugh.
