Walk down memory lane when there's nothing in the news

Pink said to me recently, we've come a long way. So that set me reminiscing...

Who among us can forget that day in January when Girlene asked to be added to the Haditha Marine Ping List?

Or when lilycicero wondered what "ping" and "BTTT" meant (but hoped they were crude)?

Or when pinkpanther111 showed up and helped us find biographical material, or when she spread the word about the defense fund here and here?

All that got me thinking about some of our "firsts".

Like the first defense fund thread.

And the first posts by Darryl, Theresa (on our totally fun "A Haditha Marine Father Has a Question for Alan Colmes" thread), and Mrs W.

So I agree with pink (want to see her first post ever?), we have come a long way. And it's about time we said so! Also, with the SSgt Wuterich hearing coming up, I figured we could use a thread to just hang out when nothing else is happening. It beats FRmail--which sometimes gets a little hard to follow.

So here's to us and to seeing an end to this job we started!

Thanks, Red.

You know, there were a few big pains on the Haditha threads that have gone Code Purple. (I think at least a couple were chased there by jaz.)

Remember these guys?

[lilycicero]

Confusing question mail call.

[RedRover]

Hmmmmmm...

[RedRover]

I think I have solved your confusion. Now go watch this. (Unless you have still have your embarrassing uti problem.)

[RedRover]

[RedRover]

Pokey left a surprise in your begonias.

[RedRover]

Yeah, that's what they all say.

[jazusamo]

LOL...I’m busted!

Looks like everyone else hung it up already. I’m looking forward to tomorrow, hope it goes well.

[lilycicero]

You are a big bag of tricks.

[RedRover]

Goodnight, partner! We meet, once more, at dawn!

[Girlene]

Thought I'd help out, Red. It's the official Green Room Thread now

[lilycicero]

Thanks. I was expecting a devan in this room. (not a hideabed)

Where’s the pepsi? What kind of host is Red? Didn’t your mom teach you to put out some chips?

[Girlene]

How about this green room instead? Much classier, if I do say so myself.



I was wondering the same thing. Where's the munchies? How about some cheese and crackers to start with, Red?

[jazusamo]

Hey! That’s more like it but beer, pretzels and sausages would be more appropriate than cheese and crackers, dontcha think? :-)

[lilycicero]

Yes, put out the sausages (with the tiny toothpicks) and Chex mix. And if I catch Red double dipping his chips in the sauce again, I am leaving.

Just found this on my desktop, and decided I had to yet and are if my BB will work. Yeah it does! A pain to use though. Think i’ll stick to a real keyboard, this is too slow — almost as slow as my brain!

Just don’t think the HTML will work. B ;)

Back to the desk I go.

Ain't technology grand! It makes spelling mistakes just as bad as I do!

... decided I had to yet and are if ... should be decided I had to try and see if -- darn 'predictive' spelling!

[lilycicero]

Ain't technology grand!

And fancy!:)
