At the FReeper Canteen!

C'mon and take a break ! Walk on over to the water cooler and lets chat. Post your thoughts, opinions, news of the day, rantings, ravings, pontificates, hypothesis, hyperboles, your soap box cause, your mantra, your baggage, your garbage, your blogging, your secrets, whatever you feel would make talk around the water cooler real interesting!

Please remember that The Canteen is here to support
and entertain our troops and veterans and their families,
and is family friendly.  

 

 

A new business was opening, and one of the owner’s friends sent flowers for the occasion. But when the owner read the card with the flowers, it said. “Rest in Peace”

The owner was little upset and called the florist to complain. After he had told the florist about the obvious mistake, the florist said, “Sir, I’m really sorry for the mistake, but rater than getting angry, you should imagine this: Somewhere there is a funeral taking place today, and they have flowers with a note saying, “Congratulations on you new location.”

Cammie up your kid!

Here’s one for you Kit Up! readers in the process of breeding your own QRF. Huggies is introducing a new piece of camo kit for your spawn. The new Limited Edition Huggies® Camo Diapers will be available at Walmart from September through November 2011. For every pack of Huggies® Camo Diapers someone purchases, they will donate diapers to Operation Homefront via the Every Little Bottom program (up to half a million). Operation Homefront is provides emergency assistance to military families in financial need. (Huggies, Walmart and Operation Homefront are also partnered up to host five large baby showers across the nation for expectant military wives whose husbands are deployed. You can find more information at www.huggiescamo.com, where you can also send personalized e-cards for deployed personnel if you’re so inclined.
