God Bless Our Military
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Mama_Bear; Dansangel; Dutchess; Aquamarine and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation's leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions.
Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult and devastating day that faces each of us and our country. Protect and guide our Military that are now being called to duty, strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the perils which beset them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Mornin' Aqua.
Offering up a snappy salute to our Armed Forces past and present. Thanks guys and gals.
Time for me to answer my civic duty and respond to my jury summons. See ya later.
Have a great day y'all.
To: Aquamarine
Good morning, Aqua. A fine Military Monday to you.
(This hostess graphic is another unique creation by Billie.)
I see all the cats look exactly the same except for a blue one. Ain't that just typical of Billie.....trying to hog all the attention! :-)
We'll have to fix that!

That sure was a good idea of yours to get rid of Billie's image. Glad I could help. :-)

Jury Duty can be so exhausting sitting there in that box all day trying to determine which lawyer is telling the truth. Thanks for doing your civic duty which is nessessary in order to have a civilized society.

Good morning, Miss Aqua...) Thank you for our Military Monday.
Here are two pics I took a couple of weeks ago, in Telluride, CO...pioneers, miners, their wives and children are buried here...and Veterans, too.
One gravestone spoke of a man who died a soldier in the U.S. Army, during the WWII years, in his middle forties.
I walked around for a while that afternoon, paying my respects, reading names and wondering about the lives behind them. Time and many winter snows have rendered some of those slates blank, or difficult to make out, but they all tell a classic story about people coming from all over the world to the American West to work hard and live free.

To: Aquamarine; Billie
Thank you ((((((Aqua)))))) for bringing us "Military Monday" giving us all the opportunity to remember and pray for our selfless protectors.
Dear Father, Please place your bloodline of protection around each and every one of our Military Members. Keep them safe the way that they work hard, sacrificing their comfort and time with their families, to keep us safe. We ask this in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
(((((((Billie))))))) - love the kitty-kat graphic!

Major FYI and warning.
August 8th, someone posted this news story at FR(don't go to the link...this is just a reference):
http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=10933 US smart bomb technology unit to move to China
More outsourcing madness of our time
By INQUIRER staff: Friday 08 August 2003, 09:11
A REPORT IN A LOCAL US newspaper said that a Magnequench unit in Valparaiso which specialises in so-called smart bomb technology is to be outsourced to the People's Republic of China.
The Valparaiso unit makes 80 per cent of rare earth magnets used in smart bombs.
The proposed move has drawn a storm of protest from local politicians Pete Visclosky and Senator Evan Bayh, who are calling for the House Armed Services Committee to review the Department of Defense (DoD) contracts with Magnequench.
According to the Chesterton Tribune, these politicians want the Treasury department to release a report investigating a sale of Magnequench to a consortium which included Chinese interests in 1995.
The proposed move will mean the loss of 225 jobs in Indiana, but the politicians also say that aside from the individuals and families concerned, national security is at risk for such technology to transfer. µ
L'INQ
This website, theinquirer.net, has a worm scripted into "Email this Article to a Friend"
I had clicked through to send them article to someone...it whiped out my whole system.
I have no idea if the story is true or not...but the website is definately a 'set up'.
I'm posting this now from Kinkos while I search for new device drivers. I'm logged here at FR as calpernia. I had to create a new user name to give you a heads up because I didn't remember my Calpernia password; nor can I access my pop mail to retrieve it.
I don't know if you want to post a warning to that thread or not; but it is a good heads up about articles posted from theinquirer.net
Anyway, I left FR and went to the domain link to see if this site had the 'email/send this story to a friend'. It did. BUT, the script to send this story was an email worm.
A few hundred dollars later....I'm just barely up and running.
When I was at Kinkos Saturday night downloading driver devices...I had freeped mailed Admin Moderator. I don't know what came of that....
But I don't think FR should allow posts from sources that what to sabotage our systems.
Be back when I'm recovered IT wise.

Wow, that's terrible. If it's a link off of that native site, I do hope the Admins got the article down fast. I'm very sorry that happened to you.
