[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

I don't fish, either. I was just wondering if fishers really did wear polarized glasses which allow them to see into the water. And asked if you are left handed because statistically, most draftsmen and even more architects are left handed.

Welcome to the Canteen, MamaB, where we honor our troops, our veterans, their families, and our allies every day. We are here 24(mostly)/7/365 to provide a place for our military to stop in, pull up a chair, and enjoy a joke, hear a song (requests taken), read some history, enjoy a cyber meal (no calories), hear about our families lives, join in the silliness, and just relax.

[Soaring Feather]

Prayers up.

[tiamat]

Just got back from another dumb lunch meeting. LOL! They cut into my FReeping time. How's Caitlyn doing? A birthday is coming. Tired of pizza yet? Are you still doing the llama thing?

Hi Tiamat! I hope MamaB will find the haven she needs here...you ARE a smart lady!:) *Hugs*

[tiamat]

Lessee.

Caitlin is addicted to a completly silly PS2 game called "Katamari Demacy"

She is also into anything Japanese. (We are taking her to Benihana for her B-Day...SSHHHHH!

I only let the kids order pizza once a month now.

Doing the llama thing, but the leaders of the club are having some problems, so we are late getting started this year

Caitlin will have a different llama to show this summer, as Frosty became comepletly surly. (Rotten beast. Glad we gelded him!)

Other than that, Spring is late. We actually had snow here TWICE this week.

(And look at me...whining to the Alaska lady about it, too! LOL!)

[tiamat]

Bentfeather is sometimes called "Queenie".

She posts good pics, too, and is also a resident DJ.

[tiamat]

And I'm modest, too!

(((((HUGS RIGHT BACK)))))

[tiamat]

MamaB, have you met Darksheare?

He's completly crazy, but he is very sweet and usually not too dangerous.

He hangs out here sometimes..

[txradioguy]

[txradioguy]

[tiamat]
