'Women get affected by wars most'
2015-06-11
[DAWN] That nonsensical statement alludes to a novel, apparently written by a feminist Pak. Helen of Troy wasn't affected as, for instance, Hector or Achilles or even Paris. Despite her many talents, Galla Placida wasn't nearly as affected by war as Ataulf. More recently, the Flower of a Generation was affected by war more than were The Girls They Left Behind.

#6  Too busy chasing gurls

Um Mr. USN Ret, my problem was I caught one (or got caught by one, never been sure which) hence the 3A.

#3  Gonna go out on a limb here: Those killed or left better off dead are affected the most by war.

#2  P2k, mine was 3. Had a 3A deferment though.

My, admittedly dicey, memory is that the first lottery was thrown out because of some flaw in the mixing and I was thrown into the second drawing. Since it didn't effect me I don't remember what that number was.

I figure fluffy bunnies and minorities are next.
