Just in from Long Cut

I'm back in town! Please tell everyone at the Canteen that Short Cut REALLY enjoyed his first b-day with his Mommy and Daddy...we took him to Sea World in Orlando to see the big fishies (and whales, and seals, and manatees, and dolphins, oh my!). He got a ton of presents from friends and family, too. He even got a college fund set up, courtesy of his grandparents!

I'll be busy getting caught up at work for a few days, but please, tell everyone that I got their pings, and give them a hearty "THANX" from the Cut Family!!!

FReegards,

Breaking news off AP wire report that witnesses are claim they hear LOUD Explosion in Central Baghdad

NO Word YET what is that

[Old Sarge]

Greetings, Canteeners, Troops,
and All the Ships at Sea!

Well, Demon Cat has joined Sarge in ushering in Hell Week at Fort McCoy - the final phase of the training that Sarge has been on since May. And what a deal! Twenty-four hour operations, constant computer work, briefings in front of VIP's - all designed to see how much ankle-biting pressure you can handle.

And insult to injury, Internet access is now down to almost nothing - which is why Sarge is making a late-night, drive-by post to the Canteen this early Tuesday. But hey, the gang over in the Sandbox has it far worse than Sarge, so just suck it up, right?

So, on to a few Personals before sign-off:

TONKIN/DIVALOCA: Just yet another fantastic thread for all of us to see and share! The lights are on for another day...

MOJO/HIJINX: Monday Mayhem sees the first prize go out to Jinx this time. We'll see what happens NEXT week...

BEACH/BETSY/RADU: I don't see you ladies except in passing, so I wanted to include you in at least one day, when I say HI!! to just y'all...

STAR/BETSY/KATHY/SPOTSY/MS. B./AND THE REST OF THE GALZ: Sorry that dancing is pretty much out for a few nights, but as we all see now, there's a few more eligible fellas to pick up the tune, so CARRY ON!

BENTFEATHER: Speaking of dancing, the Poets' Dance was WONDERFUL Sunday night. I always look forward to the time when we shall spin once more, so let's make it soon!

Sarge will be back tomorrow, so in the meantime, Y'all Have Fun!

SARGE!! I needed you this evening. LOL! I needed someone to have a beer for me. Are you sorta enjoying this new phase? Learning new stuff? Relearning old?

[Old Sarge]

{{{{{ KATHY! }}}}}

Have one FOR you?!? I'd rather have one WITH you - it would be Miller Time, Beer-Thirty, and all those other times of kick-back-and-relax.

But not until Thursday, at least...

And I'm learning new stuff, re-learning things I forgot, and teaching some dirty tricks to the next generation. That's what NCO's do, after all...

[Spotsy]

Sarge! Are you allowed to disclose what Hell Week entails?
Good luck to you and your fellow troops.
We will be here to offer morale boosts.

BUMP for Morale!

[Spotsy]

Corrupting the young ones - teeheehee. You are a character!

[Kathy in Alaska]

BARNEY!!!! Cool guys.

Although not officially on the National Park Service staff,
Barney assists with lawn work on the White House grounds.

Oh, my, Spotsy, where DID you come from? Shopping again?

Coffee on the cafe - I don't remember the last time I did that...

[Kathy in Alaska]

Spotsy, did you eat? I just had scrambled eggs with bacon bits, and a piece of toast. Very good. I think I'll make some egg salad to take to work tomorrow for lunch. Just finished hard boiling the eggs.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Diva, now we are going to India, huh? Thanks for all the effort you put into the history lessons. HOpe everything is going well for you.

[Old Sarge]

Ladies, I hate doing this: but I go back on shift in 8 hours, so sleep is key.

Just wish now I hadn't splurged on Mountain Dews during the day.

Pass the good feelings to all here, and I'll try and see each other, same time tomorrow night - I hope...

'Nytol!

John Fitzgerald Kennedy he's NOT ...
