Isn’t it precious? I could love one of those very easily! But I’ve never heard of them.
Thanks yorkie! Like your cool graphic, The Troops Do Rock!! I love every single one of’em!
Yes, its awesome! My son just rang my phone and said “Mom, have you heard the best news ever?” I hated to confess I already knew but I did tell him I just got through posting that! He said he bet Keith O. wasn’t the only one from that goofy network that had made donations. They just haven’t been caught yet....like that “Spittin’ Chrissie Matthews”. He is as nutty as they come!
Early Monday morning, November 8th my son Jacob leaves for Basic Training, he starts his training on November 11th, Veterans Day.
Jacob told me and my wife that he is going to be an EOD
His reasoning? he said, Dad, I don’t want to kill anyone, our guys are dying over there because of these IED’s, I want to save their lives by disarming them.
That is my Son, Jacob. 21 years old and he wants to save the lives of our guys. God I love that boy and we are going to miss his presence around here so much.
He was baptized in his Church just a few short months ago and we have watched our once innocent little boy accept Christ as his Savior and his first mission is to save lives.
Please keep Jacob in your Prayers as he goes thru training which is extensive. I have never been more proud of that kid as I am today.
I am an Army Vet and my wife, a Marine.
Thanks for posting this, Mr. Mayor! It is very touching and while I know how proud you are, it still stings hard for you!
Bless Jacob’s heart for wanting to do this for his country. Its a bigger blessing that he has given his life to the Lord and he knows the right way.
My thoughts and prayers will be with Jacob, you, and Mrs. Mayor! God Bless All of You!
Prayers up for Jacob! Sounds like you’ve done an amazing job raising him, Dad! :)
Prayers for and Godspeed to your son, Jacob..I know how proud you must be..My gratitide is great to your wonderful son.
May God Protect Our Protectors.
Glad you liked it, Teenie!!

Hope you are doing good today, Conor!
Thanks jaycee, I did read about Olberman today and got a laugh out of it. Sad to say, they will probably let him come back.
Thank you pam. I may be going away in the morning, not sure yet. I hate ‘short planned’ trips, lol.
I know I’m missing a lot of pings here and apologize to all!
That is sooooo funny, now I am ROF! Love it!
