In memory of my Mother 12/7/1939 to 2/7/2009

Been a ‘lurker’, a ‘member’ or an ‘unperson’ for about ten years now. Just returned [12/24/08] after a brief ‘hiatus’. I’ll add and remove things here as the spirit moves me, but for now...

I was a medic in the US Army [hence my screen name]. I spent the coldest winter of my life at a place called 'Camp Colbern' in the Republic of Korea [1975-1976] as a member of the 3/81st Field Artillery unit. If you served with the unit, check out the link - we may have froze together or you might find someone you remember.

As of today, 1 July 09, I've changed my home state flag from Massachusetts to Texas. I'm hitch-hiking to Dallas from Boston starting 2 3 July 09 [It's still raining here. Getting caught on the road in bad weather is one thing, but knowingly venturing forth into it is crazy!]. It seems like Texas is the last place in the country where the inhabitants still have sense.

Here's the route I'm going to take. So if any of you FReepers see a skinny old guy wearing a 'Cubs' baseball cap, please give me a lift!
Any FRiends in the Dallas area looking for a good employee are encouraged to send me a FReep mail!

Pet Peeves:

1. The present administration.
2. Massachusetts.
3. Sanctuary cities.
