I love this man.
I never saw this! I bet it wasn't on TV--the CIC dressing up and getting down and dirty with the crew. I think he just cemented himself 5500 votes today.......
Watching him fly onto that carrier was about the most exciting thing I have seen in a long time. My heart was about failing and I was cheering like I was at the Final Four. AND HE FLEW THE PLANE!! Just when I think it's possible to admire him more....... Then he got out and kept shaking hands and shaking hands and taking pictures and shaking hands and hugging and patting them on the back and more pictures..... I was amazed. I shouldn't have been, but I was- he was taking all the time he wanted to talk to the crew. It was wonderful. And the f-f-f-f-f-f-fli--fli---flight suit.........................don't even get me started.....
Then tonight's speech. Did anyone else feel like it was a little more of the "old" W??? Know what I mean? Lately he's had to be so stern and making sure the world (read=France) knows we are going to do what we say we will. Tonight was a much softer- it had a little bit of triumph in it, but also we got to see W's heart a little bit at the beginning and end when he was talking about those that died I wanted to cry right along with him. It's been awhile since he's let us peek inside and see his tender heart. Makes me love him all over again. ;-D Thank you, God.
Do you think the man has the slightest idea how GOOD he looked in that flightsuit??? I hope Laura gives him an INCREDIBLE homecoming tonight!! (Did you hear E.D. on Fox and Friends say that Laura had herself a HOTTIE??)
NOW......while I was away last night, Mr O and I (among other 'collateral benefit' kinds of things we were doing) discussed those leg harnesses and flight suits (and where I could find one to buy HIM).
If anyone has a Navy surplus store near them, I am definitely interested in shopping there!
Now, about Steve......here's the picture I took where the pumpkin lady obliterated the President.......
I think the votes of 5500 families is more likely!
