Queenie!

Thank you to you and your fellow judges for the Poetry Contest.

The Sailor is tonight grateful to be the winner. (Of course, he won't live this one down because it was announced last night. Hehe!)

However, Rodriguez will be excited to be getting your Poetry Book because she loves Poetry. She's one Sailor that would love to win a Poetry Contest.

*HUGS*

I love Blackie's always positive, spot-on catch phrase:

"We are winning ~ the bad guys are losing ~ trolls, terrorists, democrats and the mainstream media are sad ~ very sad!
~~ Bush/Cheney 2004 ~~

My prayers for a speedy recovery.

Hi Little Diva!!

*HUGS*

How sweet of The Sailor to give his award to Rodriguez, I hope she enjoys it.

The Poetry Contest was tons of fun. It was a pleasure to be a part of a positive event.

Prayers for Blackie, but though I don't know what he did have, I can guarantee you that he didn't have a spontaneous epidural abyss; I don't believe anyone has. But I would like to know what it translates into.

Seeing as this is the Sports Corner Canteen thread... I've got a question for the WWII buffs. Is there a D-Day significance to the yellow/red paint on the nose of Bobby Labonte's D-Day Chevy that he'll drive Sunday at the Armed Forces Family 400 at Dover?

probably a spontaneous epidural abcess. Rare, but dangerous infection of the spinal column.

Really? That is nasty. I remember him saying a week or so ago he thought he'd caught a cold.

He told me the pain he suffered Saturady was the worst pain he ever felt.
