Good morning, Everyone. Good morning to our

Thank you, Star, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

Now for the latest DC Metroland weather report

Since yesterday was Father's Day and I was not here I want to take this opportunity to tell all you Dads out there that have stuck with your family how proud I am of you. Here's one thing that jumped out at me in this story

(his father deserted them in 1936)

there were 12 children and yet the father felt he deserved to abandon the family.
I'm ashamed to see that there are so many men who abandon their families when things get a little rough.
For those of you men out there who believe they have the same right, shame on you.
So, yeah...those men who stay against all odds deserve to be praised and recognized.

My dad was many things and many of them not nice but he stayed with his wife and eight children even during times when things were not so good. He started out a really good dad but somewhere along the way and for some reason the good dad got lost. But, my mom has said that one thing that is important to him these days is for all the kids to come home during the holidays.

Not sure if you are a good dad? Not sure how to be a good dad? Try this link if you need help learning how to be a great dad.

Time for me to make my rounds. 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

REMEMBER THEM

And, all of our other allies

I think FR is having Monday morning Blahs

My pinger seems to be out of commission

and

it’s taking a long time for ..... everything....

((HUGS))Good morning, Beach. There seems to be a problem with FR this morning. Folks might want to book mark this thread temporarily until they get it fixed.

How's it going for you this morning?

Morning, beachy.

GM, dear.

all is well, but it looks like we're "going to get it" again this afternoon. our regional STORM-watch leader has already called me this morning to tell me that: "you've got the duty from 10PM to 3AM.".
