Thank you, whirlwind. We normally have one of John Huang's essays every Thursday - always a treat - but his computer is on the blink so he didn't get one to us to post today. We do have a variety of topics each week - as dansy said, we have a regular Military Monday thread every week, and Thursdays are reserved for John's Two Cents, Fridays we post a T.G.I.F. thread that runs through Sunday. Tuesdays and Wednesdays threads may be serious, silly, sweet, pretty, or cute, but always fun. Hope you'll join us often. Let us know if you'd like a ping. :)
