Here's a picture of me as a tadpole with my sister when she was a girlene...

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!
*Girlene* ping...where is you?
I feel a photo coming on? And it’s in your size.
;)
Wow. I’m flattered. Ummmm. Where or where will I wear such a “dream” of a costume. Maybe I should check the fashion police schedule before donning my new duds. For that matter, if I’m going to put on that kind of a get-up, maybe I need to check the police schedule. Wouldn’t want to spend a night in lockup and have all the other gals be jealous.

Girlene, Red must be hiding something in his first post. I know who has a lot of time to search for it.
Isn’t he a lil sweet cheeks? (Did you invent ankle socks for men?)
Yes. I called them “mankle socks”.
For real? Awwwwwww. How cute. (Sis is a cutie, too.) Brown shoes with white socks. You actually look shy in that picture! What happened?
I would be kind of curious when we started the Haditha Marine Ping list though. I tried Googling the phrase and only it went back as far as December 6th (it was before your time).
Whew, you are right, you need a lot of stamina to look back 10,616 times.
Mankle socks....way to go, now everyone is going to steal that idea!
I’m still a creature of the underbrush.
Good thing I read that twice.
Lily, on the other hand, is a creature of the sunlit plains.
We miss you when you’re not here.
Lily, Red’s first post secret is safe unless you have more patience. I made it back to May, then gave up. Did you know Red was a tow head?
May of 2007? You still had two years to go!
Knock knock.
