: I remember Viperash from the old days on AOL.
: He is a Vietnam Vet. When he spoke the
: things he said rang true. At the time I
: didn't know he had his own web page. There
: were a group of regulars in the
: "room". I used to spend hours
: watching the chit chat flow by.
: I can't recall most of the names but if I
: was to see the names again I would
: remember.People like Beansimple,
: Hondo,Linda,Crashed1fx, and on and on.Many
: times someone would make a statement and I
: would be amazed. Amazed at the stereotypical
: flavor of it.I would not say anything but I
: had made my decision of what they were.They
: did not ring true.One of the screenames that
: used to make odd statements came to mind the
: other day. Out of curiousity I typed his
: screename and the word Vietnam into
: "Google". About four lines down
: was his name and something related to
: Vietnam. Clicking the link I see a copy of
: military information and records. It seems
: pownetwork/phonies had built a case against
: him.Suddenly my suspicians of his lies were
: confirmed. At least it seemed that
: way.Records are not always as accurate as
: some think. They(the permanent ones) are
: only as accurate as the last clerk that
: transcribed your 201 file to a 214. But in
: any case the words of a vet ring true to
: another vet. At one time in my life I could
: even spot them a block away. Now it's more
: difficult. The words they say though and the
: way they say them give them away.
