Did you make it a whole day at work? And do you get some days off to recoup this week?

Hi Kathy. I did make it all day yesterday. Today I leave about an hour and a half early for back therapy. Then I'm off the rest of the week. Have a great Christmas.

Did someone say Christmas?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good to know that you will be up to par for Christmas. Being sick is not fun under an circumstances. Have a good back therapy session.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, ms feather!

It's snowing gently right now. It will be nice to have a few days off to just sit and look at the beautiful landscape outside.
I love how everything is white.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, Boys!!

txradioguy -- the last 60 days goes by the fastest, and soon you'll be home for good. I always felt the first two or three months was pretty fast, as we were busy trying to learn and do our jobs, the middle was the slowest, but the end was fast. I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir on this one. Keep your head down and come home soon.

ME????

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Did Someone say FLAG?

I am the Flag!

I am the flag of the United States of America.

My name is Old Glory.

I fly atop the world's tallest buildings.

I stand watch in America's halls of justice.

I fly majestically over institutions of learning.

I stand guard with power in the world.

Look up and see me.

I stand for peace, honor, truth and justice.

I stand for freedom.

I am confident.

I am arrogant.

I am proud.

When I am flown with my fellow banners, my head is a little higher,

my colors a little truer.

I bow to no one!

I am recognized all over the world.

I am worshipped - I am saluted.

I am loved - I am revered.

I am respected - and I am feared.

I have fought in every battle of every war for more then 200 years.

I was flown at Valley Forge, Gettysburg, Shiloh and Appomattox.

I was there at San Juan Hill, the trenches of France, in the Argonne Forest, Anzio, Rome and the beaches of Normandy, Guam. Okinawa, Korea and KheSan, Saigon, Vietnam, know me, I was there.

I led my troops,

I was dirty, battle worn and tired, but my soldiers cheered me.

And I was proud.

I have been burned, torn and trampled on the streets of countries I have helped set free. It does not hurt, for I am invincible.

I have been soiled upon, burned, torn and trampled on the streets of my country.

And when it's by those whom I've served in battle - it hurts.

But I shall overcome - for I am strong.

I have slipped the bonds of Earth and stood watch over the uncharted frontiers of space from my vantage point on the moon. I have borne silent witness to all of America's finest hours. But my finest hours are yet to come. When I am torn into strips and used as bandages for my wounded comrades on the battlefield, When I am flown at half-mast to honor my soldier, Or when I lie in the trembling arms of a grieving parent at the grave of their fallen son or daughter, I am proud. PLEASE FORWARD MY MESSAGE TO ALL WHO STILL LOVE
