As always, he would like to say...

"May God bless our troops! Welcome to the Canteen!"

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE :

Fifty-one years ago, Herman James, a North Carolina mountain man, was drafted by the Army.

On his first day in basic training, the Army issued him a comb. That afternoon the Army barber sheared off all his hair.

On his second day, the Army issued Herman a toothbrush. That afternoon the Army dentist yanked seven of his teeth.

On the third day, the Army issued him a jock strap. The Army has been looking for Herman for 51 years.

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

(IMO, flip-flops are another sure sign of spring!!!!)

Thank you, Colonel, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities. IMO, not only is the NFL trying to convince us that baseball is not our favorite past time, but so is the NBA (sorry EG). To me it seems basketball is on ALL the time. Give me baseball anytime.

Here's a link to some more firsts in baseball. Click here to view Foreign Born Baseball Players.

Oh, speaking of favorite past times, jumping to a little different subject, I watched a little of the race in Bristol, TN this past weekend (while we were in Applebee's), which was nearing the end of the race, and was surprised to see what looks like cheating to me. Near the finish line I saw drivers bumping the cars in front of them out of the way. Mr. Busch won that race by bumping the lead car in the rear. Shame. Shame. So, much for the best car and driver.

Colonel, Colonel. I see one thing you must have overlooked. What about

But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. Don't change that channel. Put down that remote. Don't leave the room. Keep your eyes on your monitor. Cause...............I'll be bock!

Now remember, the Canteen is

So, come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS

As to your answer to the question about which player was worth the money he was paid...the only one on that list that I would say yes to is Nolan Ryan. He is also a good man. But, that's just MY opinion...and I am not much of a baseball fan. :o)
