Merry Christmas to everyone. I hope you are all waking up to find out that Santa gave you everything you wanted. They say that holidays like this are supposed to be spent with the family but since I couldn't do that this year, I'lls ettle for being here with my friends in the Army and my friends here in the Canteen. God Bless and Merry Christmas.

John

Hey John, My two daughters (5 & 11) are thankful that guys (and gals) like you keep us safe. My youngest wants you to also know she is glad you kept Santa safe last night and she hopes you have a good Christmas day.

Do me a favor and post your Unit #/info so I know who to watch for on today's news.

Thank you for sharing your airport story last night, btw. I plan to go backwards to that thread later tonight or tomorrow morning when I have time to send a thank you to the "food angel" you encountered!

Today's FEEBLE attempt at humor:

Has it come down to this????

 

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible,
low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral, celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable
traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all . . . and a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2002, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great, (not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country or that it is the only "AMERICA" in the western hemisphere), and without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith, choice of computer platform, or sexual preference of the wishee.

By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms. This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely
transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of
the wishes for her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.

 

Merry CHRISTMAS!
