If you know a Veteran, someone in your family, friend of the family, neighbor, who served their country, take a brief moment of your day to thank them. Thank them for the sacrifice they made for the better good of their country.
We at Free Republic, and the USO Canteen FReeper Style, are thankful for every service member in our military, who has served our great nation.
So, to the men and women who answered the call, in both times of war and peace, thank you.
.
Message from Snow Bunny to all those who visit the Canteen.
This is how I think of the USO Canteen Freeper Style. It is like a cottage down a road, a place where a weary veteran can spend the night.
Since it opened, it is magical how so many Freepers who post here, feel it too. It has been so dear how the Freepers kept making it a cottage - a home-type of place that had a huge living room for them to visit in and a dance floor, a library, etc.
Many Veterans have written to me, saying that the Canteen is like home to them for the first time since they served.
This is your Canteen - a respite from our busy and sometimes troubling world. Make yourself at home.

Greybird, you deserve an award. [Graphic omitted] I, apparently, made a mistake about how this was to be classified. (God forbid I ever manage to understand the arcane and arbitrary rules that seem to make "General Interest" a ghost town, while putting threads like this in under "News." The rationale is still beyond me, and I doubt I'm the only one who's mystified.)
You, apparently, Victoria, think that anyone who makes such a mistake deserves a "dunce cap" for even asking.
I think this says much more about your lack of civility than it does about me.
At least Snow Bunny ended her posting with a benediction. I'm not sure how I should take it, but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt, and thank her for it. She at least didn't take issue with someone asking questions, as such, as you seem to be doing.
Oh, by the way: The FEMA security certificate apparently is for the link to citizencorps.gov, and any such certificate that doesn't have a consistent internal name is a hazard to others' secure Web use. It can be used by someone spoofing FEMA's site to get past FReepers' browser security, and to plant ActiveX applets or other pieces of malicious software code that are akin to viruses. If they "accept" the certificate, that is, as I did not.
FEMA is endangering others in not getting someone competent on line to take care of this security hole. Snow Bunny may be endangering others here by using such a link. I hope she will remove it in the future.

Nice song, thanks Cob.
