A need for prayers...
Glad you are enjoying my attempt here Burke. 8D
Thank you for the update Beth. The fact that your Mom was able to type her update and make it coherent shows how determined she is. She’s going to be okay. I can feel it. Thank God for good doctors who know so much more about treating stroke victims. We will continue to pray for her recovery and for patience to stay the course during therapy. Prayers also for her family as they cheer her on. God bless all of you.
You are most welcome, oh High Queen of the prayer circle.
The Lord is mighty and our pal FrogMom is a solid servant of our savior and daughter of our nation.

Good evening to all y’all. I sort of over did it on the humor earlier so I’ll give you a break for awhile. I hope today was better than yesterday and tomorrow is better than today. Prayers continue from the PacNoWest of course.
... and the prayers and encouragement continue from Missouri and/or Arizona. I can’t seem to control where we are it seems.
Amom can always be our bright hearted joke provider — we always need that.
Good evening Burke. Glad to see you around, wherever you ARE. Hope you are doing well.
OK boys and girls. It’s THAT time again. Time for a little humor.
An F-111 was flying escort with a B-52 and generally making a nuisance of himself by flying rolls around the lumbering old bomber.
The message for the B-52 crew was, “Anything you can do, I can do better.”
Not to be outdone, the bomber pilot announced that he would rise to the challenge.
The B-52 continued its flight, straight and level, however.
Perplexed, the fighter pilot asked, “So? What did you do?”
“We just shut down two engines.”
And one for the road...
Army fitness report
British Military Officer Fitness Reports
The British Military writes OFR’s (officer fitness reports). The form used for Royal Navy and Marines fitness reports is the S206. The following are actual excerpts taken from people’s “206’s”....
- His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of curiosity.
- I would not breed from this Officer.
- This Officer is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definitely won’t-be.
- When she opens her mouth, it seems that this is only to change whichever foot was previously in there.
- He has carried out each and every one of his duties to his entire satisfaction. - He would be out of his depth in a car park puddle.
- Technically sound, but socially impossible.
- This Officer reminds me very much of a gyroscope - always spinning around at a frantic pace, but not really going anywhere.
- This young lady has delusions of adequacy.
- When he joined my ship, this Officer was something of a granny; since then he has aged considerably.
- This Medical Officer has used my ship to carry his genitals from port to port, and my officers to carry him from bar to bar.
- Since my last report he has reached rock bottom, and has started to dig.
- She sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them.
- He has the wisdom of youth, and the energy of old age.
- This Officer should go far - and the sooner he starts, the better.
- In my opinion this pilot should not be authorized to fly below 250 feet.
- The only ship I would recommend this man for is citizenship.
- Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap
- This man is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot.
THANKS Beth for the update.
We’re still praying for you FrogMom.
Keep up the good progress/rehab.
Another day of hard work is here. Your FRiends are praying for you and sending their best regards. May your heart be lightened as your loads seem heavy.
Good evening FM. Hoping you are doing better every day. Happy V Day to you tomorrow. Hope you get LOTS of goodies. Keep up the good work and I look forward to more good news reports in the near future.
Now for the daily dose...of humor.
A very shy guy goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the other end. After an hour of gathering up his courage he finally goes over to her and asks, tentatively, “Um, would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?” To which she responds by yelling, at the top of her lungs, “No, I won’t sleep with you tonight!” By now, the entire bar is staring at them. Naturally, the guy is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his table. After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologizes. She smiles at him and says, “I’m sorry if I embarrassed you. You see, I’m a graduate student in psychology and I’m studying how people respond to embarrassing situations.” To which he responds, at the top of his lungs, “What do you mean $200!”
