Again!?!?! Wow, make sure you batten down the hatches, Connie!

We had brief thunderstorms down here, but very little wind. It’s starting...a little bit early, looks like.

[HiJinx]

That's all I can say for now - monitor's getting blurry.

Yep...I reckon it is. You carried on a fine tradition, Conor.

[ConorMacNessa]

I've done my best to live up to the example provided by my Dad - thank you very much for your service to our Nation. I could go on at great length about my family - we've rendered military service to the Nation since the Revolution. Numerous uncles served in WWII - cousins in 'Nam - nephews now. God Bless them all!

On 6Nov2012 – I’m writing in Ronald W. Reagan for President – his mouldering corpse will do more for our Nation than either of the major party nominees!

WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. "





Our Founding Fathers brought this essential freedom into existence against great odds through great adversity. It is under attack now in the defining Constitutional struggle of our times. We are called at this moment to bear Witness, to uphold and to defend this vital and First Freedom – without Freedom of Conscience, we have no Freedom at all!

Patrick Henry Addressing The Virginia House
Of Burgesses – 23Mar1775

It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

Hands-on Fathers are a vital part of the nuclear family - the single most important institution in our society - the bulwark of our social order.

Hear! Hear! Praying that this can be brought back into our society.

Djoo get the dishwasher alright?
I saw the show and it was fantastic! Better than I had anticipated. Full electric band , Lucas Hubbard on a Gibson SG electric guitar.
I had a bottle of beer and a corny dog

They were playing Wanna Rock and roll when I left. Lucas(his Son) wrote that with Cody Canada when he was like 12 years old, Ray was busting he was so proud.

Wanna Rock And Roll

It must be brought back! We are lost if it is not!

I’ve just started looking at our military service, and found out that my great-granddad served with the 16th Mississipi Cavalry in the Civil War.

Like you, my Dad entered service toward the end of WWII and I have uncles who served then and in Korea. Dad retired after a tour in Vietnam.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Glad you enjoyed the show....did you leave early on purpose?

Yes, I got the dishwasher. KitchenAid as recommended by our inspector. I was even able to get the same model. It will be delivered mid week, next week. She had to order the black one.

Happy Fathers Day. This one's for my Old Man. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2DQxzFSm9Fc

Naw, I knew “wanna Rock and roll” was a headliner end of the night tune so I headed out on a high note.
They played snake farm as I was going though the gate.

You come from a great family, Jinxie!

I have a GGG-Grandfather Cpl. William Murphy, born in Ireland about 1832, who came to America and served with Battery "C", Fifth U.S. Artillery in the the Civil War. He took part in every engagement of the Army of the Potomac from September 1861 until his discharge near Petersburg, Va. at the end of his term of service in September 1864. He was wounded by shrapnel at the Clump of Trees, Gettysburg, PA 3July1863 during Pickett's Charge.

My GG-Grandfather, John R. Brison, served in the 1st Virginia Light Artillery. Captured near Winchester, Va. in June 1862, he was imprisoned at Fort Delaware and ultimately paroled. He moved to Philadelphia where he met and married Julia Murphy, the daughter of Cpl. William Murphy. The story I heard is that William pulled out his service pistol and went out after John - luckily for me, he didn't get him, or I wouldn't be here.
