I think Beamer wants to say hi. Beamer is the Canteen Mascot.

Let me introduce you to the man who will be introducing the models momentarily. Looking every bit as smashing as the models, I give you the inimitable Mr. SAMWolf. Take it away, Sam!

Our first model is.....uh-oh... looks like they're not quite ready for prime time. Say, have you heard the one about....?

Here's Whoever, looking like the vision she is, or is that.... isn't?

Mama_Bear's looking like one fine Mama, isn't she? Something about those California bears!

I tell you, that DaisyScarlett doesn't just look good, she can COOK, too!

Everybody loves a redhead! Here's the Canteen's sassy redhead, SassyMom....

Ah, Victoria Delsoul.....with a name like that, you know she's gotta be beautiful.....

Do blondes have more fun? This one certainly does, and is more fun to be around than anybunny could ever imagine......SnowBunny, Canteen Hostess Extraordinaire!

Here's the other Canteen Hostess, Billie. She's the ornery one, you can tell by the way she moves, you don't wanna cross her. (Watch those graphics - not too big, please!)

Thought you might like to see some of the ladies responsible for keeping the Canteen kitchen full of surprises. That's Mountaineer on the left, then Iowa Granny, and uh....who is that on the right....oh, that's who on the right.

One last look at some of the lovely ladies of the Canteen, and then we'll......
GUYS! Oh, geez, GUYS! Louie, Diver, what th'?.......

Ok, let's try again....Left to right below are some of the lovely ladies who grace the Canteen regularly with their presence, their wit, charm, talents, prayers and support for our troops: Mountaineer, Victoria Delsoul, LadyX, Whoever, D4now, Snow Bunny, Aquamarine, Teacup, SusanUSA, DaisyScarlett, Iowa Granny, SassyMom, Mama_Bear, Spookbrat, and Billie.

You did a wonderful job. That's the first time I've ever been the shortest one in the bunch though. :)

Well, we know why we're here, but there's still room to have a little fun while we do it. Snow Bunny and I started this Canteen on October 7th - the day we delivered that first little airmail "package" for Osama. We'll be here until the troops come home....... :)

[SassyMom]

LOL... snake bite medicine, yep that's what my grandfather called it.... :)

[Victoria Delsoul]

Good afternoon, everyone!

Oh Billie, what a fantastic job! I love it.

I'm bookmarking this thread.

[Billie]

You're so cute, trying to take credit for my production. What a kidder.

Shoot! It was worth a try anyway. :) Did you notice how both you and Bunny have exactly 14 outfits. I tried to show complete impartiality. :-)

I noticed that. I think I need to go shopping! :)

[SpookBrat]

Stay safe and hurry home. We love you!!!!! God bless and take care of yourself. "Keep your feet dry". (I never served in the military but that's what Lieutenant Dan told Forrest in "Forrest Gump", so that's the only advice I can give you).

[The Thin Man]

A little more help? Look at the credits!
You had a cast of hunnerts working on it this year!

Hehehehe! That'll teach Billie to take all the credit. (even if she did do it all)

[Severa]

Hey everyone *grumbles* Friggin VA Beach weather sucks! Went to WalMart at 5:30pm yesterday and it was nice, sunny, high in the 70s. By the time we left an hour later, the sky was pitch black and it was pouring rain, lightning everywhere! I got soaked getting kids and groceries in the car. It finally stopped raining about 2 hrs later.

Today it's windy and highs in the 50s *grrs* And my husband gets home in *looks at clock* less than 24 hrs. Gonna be COLD on that pier.

YES I will take pictures don't worry *s* Cause the most recent good pic I have of my hubby is from June of last year when he was in BESS (Basic Enlisted Submarine School).

[Victoria Delsoul]

Great job on the show.

I totally agree! Wonderful job.

[MistyCA]

How neat! What a job you did, Billie! YEAH!!!!

[Billie]

Hi, Ron, the connection is ST.LOUIE1. :) I never saw these li'l dollz until Louie started sending them - Mama_Bear, Snow Bunny, and I all have them on our profile pages, compliments of Louie.

They are the cutest things! Several others have been posting them since then, but as far as I know, the LouieWolf introduced them to FR a few months ago. :)

[MistyCA]

LMAO!

[Billie]

Ah! I found it in my self search - evidently it didn't wipe out any comments to us. I believe you said something about getting your USO Canteen fix. :)

[Billie]

I think I had as much fun with the "credits" as the "models"!

Uhhh, I mean T Man did - he told me so. :)

[SpookBrat]

I have a true story to tell you all.

I dreamt last night I decided to do my part in the war on terror and join the Army. With DH at work in Florida, there was no one to watch the kids, so I made my kids join with me. All three of us were in boot camp together and I kept yelling at the drill sergent person because he was yelling at my kids. So I had to do lots and lots and lots of extra push ups for being disrespectful.

What a nightmare! LOL

[Cyber Liberty]

(Watch those graphics - not too big, please!)

That meant war...

:^Þ

[Aquamarine]

ROTFLMAO!

[MistyCA]

Spook, that is too funny! Are you into dream analysis? Wonder what that one means!!! :)

[Mr_Magoo]

At least I am not walking around the room pinching everyone . . .

;-)

>>>pinch<<<

[HiJinx]

It means she's one Momma who's not letting anyone, not even that big ol' mean Drill Sergeant Person, mess with her kids!!!
