USO Canteen FReeper Style ....Themeless Thursday .... August 22,2002
FRiends of the USO Canteen FReeper Style SAMWolf and Snow Bunny

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.

Sweet talk Pizza Hut into doing the same thing the Outback Steakhouse did?

Did you hear about them taking steaks to troops in Afghanistan?

After my grandmother died I came across a lot of pictures of her as a girl with her 13 brothers and sisters, etc. I took the tapes and put the pictures on video with her own narration. It was pretty neat. Yes, I was very lucky to have thought of it. :))) My grandmother also raised her kids on her own. In fact, both of my grandmothers did. They were a couple of very resourceful, tough women who taught me a lot! I was always sorry I never had a grandfather, but at the same time, my grandmother's were incredible role models. :))

"How are your kitties today?"

I'm allowing them to live.....for now. That's only because they didn't cripple me permanently. LOL

I'm still trying to figure out if you're a Dr. Bukk fan. The hilarious 'redneck' posts are right up that alley......AND I LOVE IT!!!!!

Hello, young lady.

As I am moving into a new residence, I probably won't be significantly online for a while...and wished to wish you well.

You are the epitome of class.

God Bless yourself, your husband, your home, and your family...
