Wonderful pictures!
My mother went to DFW yesterday morning to welcome the troops, and with all that she said, *I* was almost in tears with pride for these men and women. I don't know if she got any pics or not *sigh* and she is at a gun show all day today so there is no finding out till tonight. If she got any, I will see what I can do to get 'em posted.
Hair; Great Pics, loved the poster on the wall. Looks like the troops had a great time.
Smaagee - Thank you for your service. Thanks to all of troops for their service.
Great review, IMO. That is a good looking knife with some kewl accessories.
That proto HH knife I got in the auction is my daily carry now. The conventional blade is more useful than the tanto style of the original for my use. Still carry 'the original' on special ocassions.
Excellent pictures! What a fine lookin' bunch of guys!
I love the banner, too!
Welcome home, smaagee!
Ack! Story's in trouble again...Mr. Wrong has redeemed himself kinda sorta, and he's really very intriguing! Kind of an Edward Rochester type now...rather blunt and brooding but ever so deep and interesting.
Durn...now what do I do??
Time for church. Maybe somethin' will come to me during the travel time.
You know, a couple of them are still single! ;~)
Good morning all!
smaagee, hope you all are more bright-eyed and bushy-tailed this morning than we are! ;~D
Good morning!
Have Mr. Wright challenge Mr. Wrong in a duel to the death, and whoever's left standing gets the girl.
No? Well... you could... show him being mean to old ladies and dogs. Or just let her realize that Mr. Wright is so much better ;-)
Excellent review winmag, I'll post that along with the other part on Monday.... better traffic than on weekends, what do you say?
It's pretty neat to hold this stuff... and try to picture the environment these guys were living in the last year... Was fascinating to hear the stories, ecurbh and ramius and I really enjoyed meeting them. :~D
I gave out my email address, and I am hoping to see some of the pictures they have to share when they get home and can forward them on.
I think that's fine, if you don't mind fixing that one typo while you're at it.
I think I'll post the reviews here first, just to give the folks here first look and first chance to take a shot at it. With luck, I'll have another review today.
I'll get the typo :~D
It's called a "challenge coin", and most large units have them made up for small awards and as tokens of appreciation.
The "challenge" comes in at the bar, where someone slaps down his coin on the table. Everybody else has to produce their own coin. Those without coins have to pay for the drinks of the others. If everyone produces a coin, the original challenger gets to pay for everyone.
I suppose a 66 post spam would be frowned upon...
I will post anything I get. I hope to have some Thanksgiving day pics too.
Crystal and her mother and brother will be at my house and also Steve's brother Danny ("Ironman73") and his family. Don't know about Steve yet though.
I won the bet. The official time of toilet hugging...0935 am. The title went to Aaron just as I had suspected. Thanks you guys for a great time. The guys went on and on about it today and the others were kicking themselves for not coming out with us. You guys are awesome. We have some stuff we gotta do tonight, but we are hoping to get some time the next few days to meet your horses. Thanks again all.
Steve and crew.
P.S. Andre had quite a scare when he got pulled over on I-5 after only a few miles. Got a warning though.
63 spam posts wouldn't be quite so bad...
Hey we had a great time.... most of us are too old for carousing very often (ouch) but it was such fun!
Sure glad you got home safe and we didn't have to bail anyone out!
We're available anytime for getting together to play with the horses! Have horses, have saddles and have camera ;~D
Repeat 65 times...
