Car Links	THE CANTEEN SPORTS CORNER SPECIAL Do you love cars, motorcycles, and music? Today is your thread. We wanted to share with our troops a little reminder of home. As they are defending our freedom, we wanted to bring them some really cool choices for transportation. We've also asked some familiar names to share their favorite cars, motorcycles, and music. We'll share that with you a little further down. As usual, we provide links on the left and right hand side. The regular sports links are on the right. Click on the images and hyperlinks. A special thank you to MoJo's 8 year old son, Bobby. If you like the cars and motorcycles on this thread, you can thank him. He thought his mommy didn't have a clue and decided to help her out. Thank you, Bobby! (Be sure to check out his favorite car the Dodge Viper. It is the third picture at the top!!)	Weekly Thread Links

Awww..thanks everyone!! Name: Never4Get Dream: Knowing that Burka Man and MoJo are out on the road. He has decided that lounging on the beach in his beach chair is the best place for him. So? You know where to find him. Idea: To hide from Ma's kids while they are driving. Thank you to everyone that participated! We hope you've enjoyed our little bonding experiment. Until Next Week! Oh! Here's some music for the young troops out there that don't like any of the music we've played so far. Enjoy! It will be gone by tomorrow. So? Listen while you can! Thank you!!

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are,God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

Bless This House

 

Bless this house O Lord we pray; 
Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout,
Keeping want and trouble out: 
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, 
Let thy peace lie over all;
 Bless this door, that it may prove 
ever open to joy and love. 

 

Bless these windows shining bright, 
Letting in God's heav'nly light; 
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, 
with smoke ascending like a prayer; 
Bless the folk who dwell within, 
keep them pure and free from sin; 
Bless us all that we may be 
Fit O Lord to dwell with thee; 
Bless us all that one day we 
May dwell O Lord with thee.

Good morning, Aeronaut and Otto, and thank you both for your dedication to the flyover of protection for our troops' Canteen, a place where we offer a "touch of home" for our troops, our veterans, their families, and our allies.

Unfortunately, my dream car is still in pieces.
Mechanicals are done. Paint & body are done. Now for top & interior (and time to do it.)

So, in the meantime, I'll just hafta cruise around in the ol' Stoodybaker.

About the bikes.
I was at the local Moto Guzzi dealer in Prescott the other day. I told the dealer that I had passed a new Moto Guzzi Titanium going the other way on my way into town.

He said: "Oh yeah. It just left here. She is a test rider for Harley Davidson."

Cool.
