[Bahbah]

As darkness deepens and all comforts flee, help of the helpless Oh abide with me.

[Dog]

I have to say goodnight....see you all tomorrow.

God Bless President Reagan.

[alnick]

That's sad. I hope someday he realizes how President Bush loved and wants to emulate Mr. Reagan.

Maybe he will one day.

To Ronnie, the man who brought America back from the brink.

Twice.

Once in the 80's, and once starting today.

[Mo1]

Oh wow .. look at that sunset

Just Beautiful

[NautiNurse]

I wondered if it might be Delores Hope?

[PhiKapMom]

Am sure they are part of the Government photographers that are there to record every moment of his for history.

[WarEagle]

Hoist one for me, and include Lady Thatcher in that. Looks like she's not going to be with us much longer, either. The giants pass, leaving only political whores.

[Bahbah]

Me too, Kozak.

[Carolinamom]

Good night, sweet prince, and flights of angels sing thee to thy sleep.

[Jaded]

Tears. Well, more over the flag. I remember when my dad's flag was folded. Afew minutes later... anchors away.

Hush'd Be the Camps To-Day - Walt Whitman
Leaves of Grass May 4, 1865

Hush'd be the camps to-day,
And soldiers let us drape our war-worn weapons,
And each with musing soul retire to celebrate,
Our dear commander's death.

No more for him life's stormy conflicts,
Nor victory, nor defeat--no more time's dark events,
Charging like ceaseless clouds across the sky.
But sing poet in our name,

Sing of the love we bore him--because you, dweller in camps, know it truly.

As they invault the coffin there,
Sing--as they close the doors of earth upon him--one verse,
For the heavy hearts of soldiers.

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine.
Et lux perpetua luceat eis.
Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion,
Et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem
Exaudi orationem meam
Ad te omnis caro veniet.

I know, I know so have I . But God knows us well. He made this happen just right! Praise and honor to Him!

BTW does the cript open up or slide or what?

[hobson]

Not bad, not bad at all.
