Well, Sarge got back to the Home Detachment on Saturday, and what followed was two days of whirlwind family fun, buzzing around Louisville and the locales. Sunday was a trip to Huber's Farm in Starlight, IN, for some farm-fresh fruit - Missus is trying her hand at Raspberry Preserves - and Black Angus Steak - Sarge's appetite, you know...
Well, sliding back into civilian life looks kind of easy today; at least, until the rest of the week...
Now, for a few Personals:
MOJO/BETSY/TONKIN: Cult Movie thread, eh? We-ee-lll, Sarge has a few flicks of his own, which will be for a subsequent post;
KATHY/STAR/BEACH/MOJO/BETSY: Thanks for all of you wonderful Galz, for the cards, letters, care boxes, and goodies that you sent throughout my recent "trips". You were the hit of very barracks I stayed in!
MS. B/SPOTSY/FAWNN/BRAD's G: Hoping to see more of the Galz later this week, for more fun and adventures...
TONKIN/RADIX/KJ/USVET/HIJINX/ARROWHEAD: I'm back with ya, Fellas, so The Boyz are back in town!
And honest, Sarge will be in the area all day, so Let's Have Fun!

Read: Isaiah 61:1-3
The Lord has anointed Me . . . to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning. —Isaiah 61:1,3
Bible In One Year: Psalms 60-62; Romans 5
There's a story of an eccentric old man who carried an oil can with him everywhere he went. If he passed through a squeaky door or a stiff gate, he applied oil to the hinges. His practice of lubricating made life easier for those who followed after him.
Nearly every day we encounter people whose lives creak and grate harshly with problems. In such situations we face two choices—either to aggravate their problems with a spirit of criticism or to lubricate their lives in the Spirit of Christ.
Some people we meet carry unbearable burdens and long for the oil of a sympathetic word. Others are defeated and feel like giving up. Just one drop of encouragement could restore their hope. Still others are mean and sin-hardened. Such people can become pliable toward the saving grace of Christ through regular applications of the oil of kindness.
When we receive Christ as our Savior and Lord, the Holy Spirit indwells us and equips us to bless others. If we're prepared to pour out God's oil of helpfulness every day and everywhere, beginning at home, we'll minister Christ's beauty and the oil of joy to many hurting people.
Perhaps the old man with the oil can wasn't so eccentric after all. —Joanie Yoder
Good morning Everyone. Good morning to our AWESOME Military and our allies. Thank you for all you do. I hope you have a wonderful week, regardless of where you are.
Ok, now since there are already over 300 posts, I am not even going to attempt to get to them first thing this morning. I will try to jump in throughout the day and read them as I can. Maybe I'll be caught up before I go home this afternoon. So, please don't think I'm ignoring you if I do not respond to your ping right away.
Ok, now I saw some new faces in my brief excursion through page one. So........this will be for all the visitors and newcomers that are at or were at the Canteen.....this is for you.........
"Local Hero" Hugely unappreciated.
My copy of "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" is about 3 1/2 hours long. Now I'm dying to know what was in the "director's cut" of over 5 hours. I don't see how it could be any more funny than it is!
Dr. Strangelove
Shoot, a man could have a good time in Dallas with this!
Freddy: This is the moment. Well, dear, are you ready?
Inga: Yes, Doctor.
Freddy: Elevate me.
Inga: Now, right here?
