Mr. Magoo....I would give ANYTHING if my kids and grandkids could know those memories. Thanks for that post. It's the best one I've seen! :)

[MistyCA]

We will probably have to ping them to it....not too many here right now. :(

[HiJinx]

Shhhhh...wait 'til they're here, then ping 'em!
Or do you want a whole bunch o' people hangin' around our hot tub????

[Mr_Magoo]

Most Excellent, Misty!

I am always impressed when someone can create new lyrics to a song.

"Magoo and Blackie found the jokes for today"

Well, I try to find jokes that
a)the troops would like, and
b) won't get me banned! :-)

[MistyCA]

LOLOL!!!

[MistyCA]

I am sure we are all trying not to get banned! :) Well.....sort of......anyhow.......:)

[Jen]

I think 'some' Canteeners are pushing the envelope...

[Dubya]

And I thank you. Thanks for the ping.

[SAMWolf]

That's great Misty. I love it. I'm gonna steel it and put it on my home page.

[Jen]

It's very cozy but not crowded with just us four. Shhhhhhhhh. Maybe they won't see us over here.

[HiJinx]

Oh, I agree...what happened to that bottle of Merlot?

[Dubya]

May we never let the memories of the American soldier die.

[Jen]

There's some left. You want a glass?

[SassyMom]

ROFLMHO....#369... You've got that right.

Well all, I'm just popping in to say hi. I probably won't be around much this weekend. I will check in when I can.

Gurlz, have fun this weekend. :)

[Jen]

You can't leave till you see #410!!!

[HiJinx]

Love one, thank you!

[4TheFlag]

I only came to feed my alligators!"

ROTFLMAO Jen, GOOD one, and WHAT a sight it was AFTER saying that, LOL!!!!

[SAMWolf]

steel = steal

[Jen]

Cheers! (clink, clink)

Snow Bunny, you always do such a wonderful job on the themes for the threads,
and this one is a favorite!
It's interesting to get to know more about the friends we have here.

That is especially true of this one featuring you, HiJinx.
Our opinion of you already is a most positive one, and it gratifying to see how you were shaped,
what you have done, and what you have become.

My own two sons were military brats until they were 14 and 15, and always expressed appreciation for their disciplined upbringing and the benefits of living in so many places.
I always stressed not to regret leaving behind friends they made and locations, but to look FORWARD to the new ones ahead.
(They were fortunate to be just 14 1/2 months apart in age, so had a built-in Best Friend,
and were never really lonely.)

That helped them in adulthood, adapting easily to moving around as dictated by their careers.

Thank you, HJ, for exemplyfing the quality of our great family of veterans at Free Republc.

To those seeing this who are on active duty, we so appreciate what you are doing - the continuation you are of those who stand between us and the enemies of this wonderful Republic -
our beloved America.

We pray daily for you and your families.
