The FR Canteen is Free Republic's longest running daily thread
specifically designed to provide entertainment and moral support for the military.
The doors have been open since Oct 7 2001,
the day of the start of the war in Afghanistan.
We are indebted to you for your sacrifices for our Freedom.

Joe Morris flavors his ice cream with ingredients ranging from chocolate and strawberries to green tea and dried chipotle peppers. Hes one of three ice-cream makers for a successful Texas company known for its quality, creativity, and innovation. But Joe hasnt forgotten why he does it.
He told reporter Ricardo Gándara that one of the longtime employees always reminded them, Why are we making ice cream? Its a happy food. Were here to make people happy. And thats why Joe Morris makes ice cream.
We know that its extremely important to remember the reason for what we do as followers of Jesus. If we forget, we become like the disciples when a dispute over who was most important created anger and division among them. Jesus reminded them that even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many (Mark 10:35-45).
If our goal is to share the good news of Gods love with others, we wont become impersonal or harsh if someone resists or ridicules our appeal. As we follow our Lords path of loving service and sacrifice, we are reminded that He came to serve and save.
Thats the reason for everything we do.
Read: Mark 10:35-45

Oh well don't want to complain
because before we know it
it'll be winter and we'll be shoveling snow. UGH!
Although Ma likes that stuff.

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

Hi, Ma!
You Are Proper
You are cautious and guarded. Whenever possible, you choose restraint and moderation.
You find getting caught up in details to be a waste of your time. You focus on the big picture instead.
You pride yourself on being detail oriented. You never forget about anyone or anything.
You are tactful and polite. You are well bred enough not to offend anyone.
You know, we use the word “predator” a bit too liberally these days. More often than not most of the the “wolves” we are faced with anymore aren’t predators at all, they’re scavengers. They won’t mess with anything that’ll fight back. There are some true predatory animals out there, and they truly hunt, but for the most part I think that most of these idiots are looking for the path of least resistance. They don’t want to get dirty. “We’ll rob the old lady”, “Let’s abduct a kid”. A defensless target is an easy target, right? The solution for that is simple, refuse to be food. For the other, the true predator, the solution isn’t so simple. They are hunters. They stalk, they lay in wait. They kill. Those are the ones that will let you know that you’ve got a fight on your hands. Not fighting to get away, but fighting to get to you. All the posturing in the world won’t change their mind. You have to understand going into it that there will only be one left standing. Who will it be? You, or them? Maybe it is as simple as it seems...Victory, or nothing.
