I have about a tenth of them back. I have a lot in text files..and the tinypic link still works. Problem with tinypic is it won’t work all the time..and they sub graphics.
I have a sweet viola good morning graphic subbed with a porn graphic...That porn graphic is diplayed somewhere in FR archives right now!!!...with my name on it.

I lost most of the downsized or cropped pictures.

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
AWESOME
Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
Major KUDOs to 2nd Lt. Sophia Hilaire on the new record. And, WOW! Is she awesome or what?

The DC Metroland weather report

~ Today.....Sun and clouds mixed. High 52F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.

~ Tonight....A few clouds. Low 33F. Winds light and variable.

Hum, well, they weren't quite right about overnight temps. It was a chilly 26 when I got in the car.

At least it seems God got tired of my whining and moved the cold back north! Thank you Lord! hehe

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 ALWAYS

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

REMEMBER THEM
