FReeper Canteen~May~National Military Appreciation Month~May 5, 2005
May 4, 2005 | bentfeather/Canteen Crew

For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday...
Thank the Veterans who served in The United States Armed Forces.

~May~ National Military
Appreciation Month~



We thank you, you who volunteer
To join the military to protect
what's here...
The Constitution, the Rule of law,
Our way of freedom loved by all
In this wondrous land of ours
Whose Stars and Stripes flow freely
O’er the land, whose seas are free,
Don’t tread on us... we are too, proud
To let you turn us into dust!

We appreciate your bravery, your valor,
Your honor, your gallantry,
Thank You for all you do.
And let Freedom ring the whole world through.










The price that's paid for freedom made
an entire family terribly sad.
A nation must know the price that's paid
of blood, of tears, of love,
greater than any made
a life for freedom paid.

May our gracious God touch the hearts
and ease their pain.
Their loved one did not die in vain...
A Hero walks tall in a lofty land
of peace and will be forever young,
In the Mansions of the Lord.

Amen

Please don't pick on Darksheare too much.

We are co-kings and solemn brothers of the Knights of the Holy Order of The Eradication of the Entire Species of Electric Can Openers.

We're not just blowing smoke. We're serious! We're talking genocide here!

Next will be.....well, we haven't decided yet. It's a toss up between toasters and microwave ovens but their could be a dark horse.

To: El Gran Salseron

Good grief - you can have mine. I hate those things. I would much rather use my good old hand cranker. Or give me a P38 and get outta my way. Those electric models are for the bird. I have done my share however - I think I've killed about 4. :o)

See ya tomorrow.
