make that angle
Thank you for the Dose :)
I didn't notice that until you pointed it out. Different, and I wonder if there's a practical reason for the design.
LOL! You never know.
Hi Jonny. Great to see you, also. I missed everyone the last couple of weeks. Thank you again for subbing for me.
These pics of Laura and the USS Texas are awesome! (And she looks great in white ;)
I agree. I especially like the one of her being shown the orange engine with the longhorn emblem. That would have been the photo of the day if it weren't for that great group photo of the Iraq-bound Marines in front of AF1.
Great photo, isn't it mystery. Gave me the chills when I saw it. That unit is not fortunate in that they were shipping out to Iraq, but they are very fortunate to have been at Andrews when the President landed. What a memory for each of those guys.
I was thinking the same thing ...
There's just something ... what's the word? I don't know, but seeing this first lady on this particular submarine fills me with a lot of pride.
Hook 'em, Horns! ;)
Hi, Buddy :) Hope you're feeling better.
Nice to see Laura wearing a skirt in a few of these pics.
She obviously prefers pants, but some occasions call for a skirt or dress.
I'm feeling better....I'll bbl..I have to take a bath..I just gave Brandon's his....
That is one of the best pics!...and those guys looked thrilled!!
It couldn't hurt, right? I'll just keep saying, "Hey, I helped pay for those commercials during the election! And I voted for him too!" Lol I'm sure they'll be impressed. Or maybe they'll take pity on me if I take both of my crutches with me and look extra pathetic.
I know what you mean about feeling a lot of pride seeing her commission that particular boat. (Don't know why, but subs traditionally are boats, not ships. Maybe there's a swabbie out there who can tell us why.)
They looked awed. Subdued because they're shipping out, but truly awed that the Commander-in-Chief stopped to wish them well.
That's the ticket! The people who will be impressed by donations are at the other end of town, under that big white Capitol dome.
MamaB, did you know that dogs are to be kept away from chocolate, and raisins, and onions? There are other things too. Poisonous to them.
(Don't mean to imply that you don't know this, but just in case....)
***What a coinky dink. I'll be there too. The fifth anniversary of 9/11 happens to be my first full day of interning at the Pentagon.***
A most auspicious coinky dink! Hope you get to see him.
