USO Canteen Freeper Style

War has come to our shores. It was committed on American soil.  We have been able to live in Freedom only because of those who have fought in the past wars giving life, limb and all the sacrifices for us to live in Freedom and go about our day without fear.

On September 11, 2001, that comfort, that feeling of living in a land that would not be attacked ended.

William T. Sherman said it succinctly, "War is hell."

The day has come for this Nation and its people to understand that there is a risk in losing its freedom, and in reality there always has been. We have ONLY stayed free because of the sacrifices of our military, our warriors.

This is about saving the future of America. Aristotle said, "We make war that we may live in peace."

We are seeing the American Flag flying at homes now more than ever in my lifetime. We are seeing the American Flag flying on vehicles and people wearing Flag pins and small Flags on their clothes. America is united in the cause for Freedom and for our country to WIN against the evil that came upon our land to kill and hurt us. To change our way of life and to destroy America which is US, you and me. To take away our precious Freedom.

This is the Freeper version of the USO Canteen. Where soldiers could come and feel a small part of being at home. It is a place where you that have family in the military can post a thought to a loved one that might be able to read it far away from home. A place where we that support our military can help support them, post to them, fun graphics showing the price in America and our troops. Poems, quotes, cartoons, or articles of how America is behind our troops.

Those in our military are our Nation's warriors. Let us join hands, fly our Flag and let the world know how important our warriors are to us....And that our MILITARY, our Warriors, are America's TRUE HEROS!

This old man went to the doctor. The doctor says "Whats the matter with ya"?
The old man says "I can't pee."
The doctor says "What age are ya?'
He says "I'm 97."
"Ah" he says "You've pee'd enough."

Now, you KNOW you should have addressed this to our Dave, too - who is, AHEM! a blonde. (Not that that has anything to do with it.) :^)

Hi, Dave!

[RaceBannon]

It feels like 60 in Connecticut right now!

[dansangel]

Thanks, Billie. That was a beautiful tribute that Snow Bunny did. I was very surprised and very honored when she asked for his picture.

I made a promise to myself that I would avoid FR and do some writing today. ***~~sigh~~***

The best laid plans of mice and men.....LOL

Have yourself a wonderful day! {{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}

[Billie]

Oops! Morgan's a she cat.....ok! I guess LBGA needs to find her and put HER in the picture, too. Wonder if Sam still has that pic.

[Aeronaut]

Good afternoon, Aeronaut! Ready for football today?

Good afternoon. Sorry, not at all a fan. You have my blessing to enjoy it, however, I'm not a crusader against it.

[Billie]

That does it. What have you done with my T Man? I know you are an Alien and you've done something horrible to him. You give him back!

[Aquamarine]

Did you like my jokes Billy? I'm not getting any feedback, are they too dicey?

[Aquamarine]

Make that BILLIE!

[Billie]

You're not a football fan? (What a man!) I have to confess I am not either, but it seems the thing to do, getting close to Super Bowl, to pick a team, and I just picked a team that I know those I LIKE like!

I love the NBA though!

[whoever]

.. "I'm drowning, you moron..

You didn't say, but was HE blonde?

Or is that redundant?

[Aeronaut]

Actually, the only sports event I've been able to watch in the past year was the recaps of the Tour de France. I know that would drive most folks here crazy, but I used to race a little bit a few years ago.

[4TheFlag]

UHH OHHH, NE 14 PGH 3, almost to the half....

[SAMWolf]

This one?

[Billie]

Well, it does help when you spell my name right! :^) About the jokes......yes, the one about hanging the wrong man is very funny! :^) I'm sorry - I usually try to respond to posts addressed to me, but not always when they're not.

[4TheFlag]

Hey there who! Hope you're having a GOOD day!

[Snow Bunny]

FallGuy said to tell you..... he is standing right here....

"I LOVE you Billie ! Go Rams!!!!! "

He loves your post Billie and you ! ( big smile)

Good morning beautiful Billie !

[Aquamarine]

Thank you, and please respond to me anytime you feel like it. : =)

[Snow Bunny]

Freefly, you for your post on yesterdays thread. I am answering it over on the new one Billie just did so you can come and watch football with us.

I love thinking of how our troops might be watching football on the ships. Can't you just hear them yelling for their teams. giggle.

[SAMWolf]

Beamer is trying to watch the game, Morgan wants some attention.
