~ SPORTS DAY IN THE CANTEEN ~     The Canteen Doors Are Open! Yep! Another fun filled Sports Day for all of our Troops, Veterans, and their families. (Oh yeah! For Canteeners and lurkers as well.) Anyhoo, the Canteen Sports CEO (That would be Mr.Tonkin for those that would like to file a complaint!) would like for us to keep things simple for Sports this week. So? Being that we have no power over such things, we are going to take him at his word. After all, he's the CEO and he always knows everything. Right?  The right hand side provides all the sports information you will need! So? Have at it kids! Have fun!! (In all honesty, we don't want to bog down the thread opening anymore. We'll keep it short and simple. Anything else we'd like to add will be posted on the thread itself!)   CANTEEN SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS 1. The Cincinnati Reds, not the Chicago Cubs, are currently in First Place in the National League - Central Division. Please make note of that. Be sure to pester Cubbie lover, tomkow6, about it. He'll appreciate it. 2. No! This isn't Da Bears season yet. So? The CSC CEO won't care what we write about in the Canteen. (Don't tell him Da Bears will be bad again this year. Hehe!) 3. The French Open is currently going on. Anyone care? We didn't think so. Besides, all the American men are gone. Wimbledon is next for us. WooHoo! 4. Anyone see the Indy 500?? Isn't it nice that we all know how to say Buddy Rice? It sure is. Nice to see an American win it again. 5. *YAWN* The Yankees are in first place again. Different year, same story. Poor BoSox fans. 6. If you want to end your football career with controversy, sign up to be the head coach at Colorado. McCartney, Neuheisel, and Barnett. What a grand school. (Although, Barnett wasn't fired.) 7. Just an observation: The British papers and people love two things more than anything else. They love soccer and sex. Kind of convenient since they both start with "s". They are obsessed with David Beckham and who he's with or isn't. Looks like his wife Victoria is becoming the Hillary Clinton of Great Britian. Sucks to be either one of them. 8. We know what you're thinking: WHY ISN'T IT FRIDAY ALREADY? We hear ya there!	SPORTS LINKS mouse over to see the link!

I'm glad that you and Mr.B were able to be there to show support for Beau and his family. God was there too.

RIP Spc Beaulieu

Good Morning Kathy,

Just heading out the door, let us remember that today is D-Day, and that cost of freedom has never been free. Thank a vet from today and yesteryear that we are free.

[Johnny Gage]

Sorry to hear that! I hope he gets well soon!

I applied for the Coast Guard Academy way back when, and made the finalist list, but didn't make it in for physical reasons. So, I've always been interesting the Coast Guard.

I gues if they are shipping the ships to Iraq, it wouldn't be too bad a trip. But I would relish crossing the ocean in a 110" footer. <Maybe we should send the Eagle over as well. It's still better than anythingthe iraqis have.

[kjfine]

Glad that you like those bandaids. LOL!!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

She is beautiful!!

[Military family member]

I think I applied to the academy more to sail on the eagle than anything else! :-)
