HALLIBURTON?!?!?! i thought you had principles james... some ethical standards maybe... they are under criminal investigation for overcharging their clients (ie. the US ARMY) no wonder their employees can make so much $$

It's pretty narrow minded of you, or anyone to ever question MY principles, or my ethics. My values have led me down a nearly solitary path for most of my life. My sense of right and wrong has alienated me from my friends for longer than I have known you. I have written off more people in my life due to MY over blown sense of right and wrong than I care to count, even to the point of guilt by association. I rarely drink. I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. I don't steal. I don't lie. I don't cheat. I have never been arrested. And I have never been to jail. I don't have faith in god or my place in heaven. I live my life that way because it's the right thing to do. If I was lacking in principles I would be in prison or worse for the premeditated murder of a certain some whose LACK of morals led him to steal the ONE taste of happiness that I have enjoyed in my mostly miserable life
