Walk down memory lane when there's nothing in the news
August 26, 2007 | RedRover

Posted on 08/26/2007 5:32:12 PM PDT by RedRover

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!

Red still dances pretty well for being a half century old.

Red's the one with the mustache. :-)

LOL. Thanks a bunch, Justa! I see Pink made it to the Grand Finale, but I was too late. I’m not sure who the other chick is. Is that you, lily?

We heard you enjoy cooking, so thought a new apron may come in handy.

With gloBULL warming you may not need this, but we thought we would play it safe.

It’s good to be here, ticked! I hope I’ll just keep better, like a good wine, rather than sour and curdled like the wine I can afford!

Well! You will miss the rest of your gifts! We will all just enjoy them until you get back in the morning. ;*)

I hope you had the bestest birthday ever, Red. You are a credit to the human race and so many of us appreciate you so very much. Have a good rest! Tomorrow is the first day of the down hill slide.

Good Night! Kissing monkey

It seems he's going to bed early. You know he turned 50 today, so who can blame him. Maybe we can re-open up the bar?

Night, Birthday Boy!

I saw the bar. I swear I saw Mrs. Butterworth, but I must be mistaken.
