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!
"No Marine was ever honored for what they received. Honor was the reward for what they gave." (Anonymous) CHIEF gave his all in many ways. He touched our lives and his friendship meant so much to all of us. He will live in our hearts forever, and his friendship will always be a bright and shining memory in our hearts and souls.

I can see clearly now
The rain is gone,
I can see all
Obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds
That had me blind
Its gonna be a bright,
Bright, sun-shiny day.
I think I can make it now,
The pain is gone
All of the bad feelings
Have disappeared
Here is the rainbow
Ive been prayin for
Its gonna be a bright,
Bright, sun-shiny day.
Look all around,
Theres nothin
But blue skies
Look straight ahead,
Nothin but blue skies

Hey there SB,
Sorry to hear about the SNAFU's in the job and all, things will work out though for sure, they always do..Have faith dear Lady...
I live in Rapid City, South Dakota, right now the GREAT White North.
Weather this time of year can be quite varied...64 yesterday and over a foot of snow tonite and tomorrow, it has been a Non-Winter for us so far, now this.....we can expect snow through June here...
To: Aquamarine
Maybe bad days are here because "the Ides of March are upon us." (almost) LOL I try to make everyday good though. Someday's are harder than others, but most of them are pretty good.
At least your dog didn't find a skunk to roll on.

You're doing great Louie. I'm proud of you.Shhhhhh.....don't let *her* hear you say that. She might be back. LOL
hahaha
Yeah, go on and laugh. It's not your bones. LOL

I think you're big enough to mess with anyone you want.
Sir Wolf included. : )
To: SpookBrat
M(r)s. Spookie, you are amazing!
You come on mid-afternoon and unburden your soul, you tell us you've fallen to the deepest depths of despair and misery, and then...!! What!?
You spend the rest of the evening consoling everyone else, that's what!
Are you really that unselfish? Is your heart really that big?! That must be what makes you such a good Canteener!
You hang in there...like you said, you've been here before, and survived. Our Lord will see you through it again!
If you need help, holler! We're here...

At least your dog didn't find a skunk to roll on. Not yet! On the side of the road that I take to town there is a dead skunk and whenever Daisy Mae smells it she always sits up in her seat and sniffs like she's thinking..."Yummmm, road kill..." lol!
To: whoever
"Have a nice night"
