[Soaring Feather]

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

"teh owrk tehre ot fo.."

It's okay......blackie and I speak "Ewok"

[Darksheare]

Not my cup of tea, actually.
I like the hair color, her eyes, and figure, but she vaguely reminds me of Demi Moore.

[Darksheare]

Actually, I think it was more 'Grinwid' than 'Ewok'.

[Kathy in Alaska]

It has not escaped my notice. LOL! And are you going per usual?

[StarCMC]

I have NO IDEA!! I have paid ZERO attention this year. Little Al is always a favorite with me too. :o(

[Diva Betsy Ross]

For more of the festivities!!! Look Here:

Mini-Marathon to be staged for troops in Afghanistan Indiana National Guard 76th Infantry Brigade to compete in half-marathon abroad

GO TROOPS!

[StarCMC]

Ok - I'm out for a while again - I have SO MUCH to do today. Miss you all!! *HUGS!*

Hopefully next week things will slow up a bit and I can enjoy your company more!

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Yes I am! I got my plane tickets all lined up! YEAH! Except this year my Mom is going too. As much as I adore her.. I am boo hooing over this fact. I have told my dear Mother that there is no whining allowed at the Indy 500 weekend. (She will never make it!!)

At least she doesn't go to the actual race, so I have a chance at seeing some racin' in some peace and quiet!! (She is NOT a race fan!!)

To show what a dear daughter I am I am going to miss carburation day to go shopping with her, or some such silly nonsense.... (UGH!) :]

[Kathy in Alaska]

I lost my cable last night, but only for about 15 minutes, thank goodness.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good afternoon, my.....half day on Friday, or Friday off?

[international american]

I will have to bone up on my Grinwid.

[Darksheare]

Well, considering I thought it up for a short story.. even I have to bone up on it.
