A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....08-15-05....Military Monday

Billie, The Mayor

[Pippin]

A good idea.

I have a problem, tomorrow I'm supposed to sub for ohioWfan in putting up the "Day in the life..." thread, but now they're predicting t-storms for the Mid-Atlantic states

I'm not sure weather or not to go on ahead and post the thread or get somone else

Of course I could wait and see what tomorrow is like too.

I'm probably gonna post the thread around 6 0r 7 in the evening.

[Darksheare]

Understood.

[Lone Red Ranger]

I'd like to add my brother-in-law, who is an Airborne Ranger, currently active in Iraq. Previous campaigns include Bosnia/Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, and Haiti. JD is an outstanding soldier and leader, an excellent father to his adopted son and husband to my sister, and a thoughtful, disciplined and warm-hearted individual, a singularly loyal friend; truly an American in the finest tradition of the service and the heartland.

We are blessed to have him in our family. The Army and his platoon are hardened and strengthened by his presence. America is safer for his protection for his contribution and answer to the call to duty. He is loved. He continues to give more in return than one can honestly be asked to give.

[Pippin]

LOL!

Your tagline! :o)

[Darksheare]

Thanks!
Been rotating them a bit today until I get one that suits.

[Pippin]

I need to chang my tagline

Although I rather like this one. :o)

[Darksheare]

I've been goofing with mine for most o the day so far.

[Pippin]

You'll find the right one! :o)

[Darksheare]

Possibly.
;-)

[LadyX]

**LadyX** laughs at her error...

It really is hard to figure out some names as to gender - like "Disgusted" and "Nonconformist"..:))

Do become a regular here, and keep us informed about your son and family.
Dolly, shouldn't she (and son) be listed now on the Military Prayer Box List?

[LadyX]

Now that FR is back to functioning, I can now see that you already have added Jemian and her son.

Our list grows, and it is a privilege to lift all of them (and the unnamed) up to be protected and strengthened.

[snugs]

I have company tomorrow Pip so I cannot assist. I am just thankful that I have never had thunder storms bad enough that would make me consider not going on line. I have only heard of a couple of instances in the UK where a thunderstorm has taken a modem out but I understand that in the States it is much more common.

[Pippin]

Especially in the Mid Atlantic region.

BAND OF BROTHERS

They're a band of brothers
Who fight for our freedom
Who risk their lives
And get mistreated.

They go to a place
So far from home
Where freedom is not a value
Their people own.

They go with pride
Courage and commitment
Fighting each day
Fighting each minute.

Sitting in trenches
Of dirt and mud
Watching and waiting
For the enemy to come.

They're there for a reason
They know what for
They're there to bring freedom
Through this operation of war.

[luvie]

Hi--I'm kinda here. Trying to get some housework done and not succeeding! I haven't seen it, yet. Is is a new movie or on DVD? I sure want to, though, after all the good things you said about it.

Thanks--I loved doing it!

Take care of that back! I feel for you!

[DollyCali]
