Grew up on a farm. My Mother sent me to another farm about 12 miles one day because she had paid a man $10 for an English Setter puppy. I was to pick out which dog I wanted, male or female, and get the papers so I could register the dog with AKC. Picked out an orange ticked female, 6 weeks old. Driving the puppy home, I was wondering what to name the dog when “Tammy,” by Debbie Reynolds came on the radio. Tammy, the dog, had at least 52 puppies, all registered, in her lifetime.

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you for all you do.

Thank you, fatima, for preparing the Canteen
for today’s activities.

Got to post and then check out some of the songs.
Will be in lurker mode most of the day,
cause I have a lot of things to do today.
I will respond when I can.
But, please stay right where you are.
Chat up the military and/or their families.

Remember, the Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale
of our military and our allied military
and the family members of the above.
Honoring those who have served before.

I’m going with Tom Waits’ song “Martha”. One of the best songs of unrequited love ever written, IMHO.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9Mse62NFl4

Operator, number, please:
It’s been so many years
Will she remember my old voice
While I fight the tears?
Hello, hello there, is this Martha?
This is old Tom Frost,
And I am calling long distance,
Don’t worry ‘bout the cost.
‘Cause it’s been forty years or more,
Now Martha please recall,
Meet me out for coffee,
Where we’ll talk about it all.

CHORUS
And those were the days of roses,
Poetry and prose and Martha
All I had was you and all you had was me.
There was no tomorrows,
We’d packed away our sorrows
And we saved them for a rainy day.

And I feel so much older now,
And you’re much older too,
How’s your husband?
And how’s the kids?
You know that I got married too?
Lucky that you found someone
To make you feel secure,
‘Cause we were all so young and foolish,
Now we are mature.

CHORUS

And I was always so impulsive,
I guess that I still am,
And all that really mattered then
Was that I was a man.
I guess that our being together
Was never meant to be.
And Martha, Martha,
I love you can’t you see?

CHORUS

And I remember quiet evenings
Trembling close to you...

This is one of the most popular "name" songs, but I don't think anyone has posted it yet.
