Mornin', everybody ! Happy Pancake Day !!

79 degrees as I post this, headin' for a Cold Front high of only 92 today !

Have a cup while you FReep !

For those who prefer hot chocolate.....

[beachn4fun]

order ketchup and prepare to be mocked by anyone present, including the folks taking your money.

Oh yeah. I can understand that. I think ketchup ruins the taste of a good dog. It is ok on fries, but not on a dog. I know many people who like ketchup on a dog, but not me. And, I don't live in Chicago!

[SouthernHawk]

One for All and All for ONE!!!

[beachn4fun]

Morning meekie. Isn't it too hot for hot chocolate. Does it come in "iced" hot chocolate?

[SouthernHawk]

Good Morning Bentfeather. Thanks for the Dragon poem from last night.

You are my first choice for "Poet Laureate" if I ever become President! (neither one of us should quit our day jobs any time soon) LOL!!!

[SouthernHawk]

(HINT: you forgot GOOD LEADERSHIP in your list!)

Everyone here has been so good to LadyHawk and me. I am glad to be able to help someone else in return.

[Soaring Feather]

Good moring beachn!

I hope to have some sun today, for the weather to calm down a tad. Right now it's nice here, but I imagine it will change in a NY second!

I have to do some computer work today. I do a newsletter so it will be a typesetting day. Then the dreaded mailing list has to be updated. :-(

How are you and what is happening in your neck of the woods?

[SouthernHawk]

Hmmmmmm, a misbehaving son? NOT!!!

Sounds like a good explaination though. ***GRIN***
(You had to be there)

[Soaring Feather]

Good morning Southern Hawk!!

My goodness, I accept your nomination!! LOL
That would be swell!!

[tomkow6]

Hmmmmmm, a misbehaving son? NOT!!!

[SouthernHawk]

My dragons and I thank you for accepting!

[beachn4fun]

Oh, sorry to hear that you were on the receiving end of this one (he he).

Dragon Slayer, and Damsel Saver, Sir Galahad!

things are ok so far in my neck of the woods (actually as I work close to the city (DC) it is more like a jungle!). It is hump-day, after all. A bit over-cast today. Guess I'll have to take my umbrella when I go for my "almost-daily" walk. Have fun with the newletter.

Good Morning Canteen and Troops!

A blond was driving home after a football game and was caught in a really bad hailstorm. Her car was covered with dents, so the next day she took it to a repair shop. The shop owner saw she was a blonde, so he decided to have some fun. He told her just to go home and blow into the tail pipe really hard and all the dents would pop out.

So the blonde went home, got down on her hands and knees and started blowing into the tailpipe. NOTHING HAPPENED !!!! She blew again, only harder this time. NOTHING HAPPENED !!!! Her roommate, another blonde, came home and said, "What are you doing?" The first blonde told her how the repairman had instructed her to blow into the tailpipe in order to get all the dents to pop out.

Her roommate rolled her eyes and said "HELLOOOO"...... " YOU NEED TO ROLL UP THE WINDOWS !!! "

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Did I miss breakfast? Waffles, mmmm. (^;

Thank you all so much for what you do for the troops - and for FR...an oasis of sane and funny and kind.

Need a kick - along with the coffee, pancakes and companionship...some morning reading, in case you missed it:

It Ain't Necessarily So. [Soldier's letter from Iraq]

Andrew Sullivan linked the letter (and FR!) to his websight yesterday. A few more people today know that our troops rock (and our press needs a spankin').

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Oops, sorry Radix. Thanks for hosting breakfast this morning.

The Iraqi people needed those Hussein boys dead. They were so brutalized. More here:
