USO Canteen FReeper Style ~ Letter to the Military Lurkers ~ November 12th,2002
68-69TonkinGulfYatchClub and FRiends of the Canteen

Posted on 11/12/2002 6:31:56 AM PST by 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub

Dear Military Lurkers

As you have now noticed there have been changes to the Canteen.
1st of all let me assure you that the Canteen is here to stay.
Due to circumstances beyond my control I have assumed the duty of running the Canteen.
I could not even begin to explain what happened on this or on any other thread.
HOWEVER feel free to e-mail me at seaside611@hotmail.com with any questions.

It is my intention to keep the original purpose of the Canteen on track.
That purpose is to show our support for the military, their families and veterans.
Please be assured that we stand firmly behind you.
May God Bless and Protect you, my Brothers and Sisters.

At a nursing home in Florida, a group of senior citizens were sitting
around talking about their aches and pains.

"My arms are so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.

"I know what you mean. My cataracts are so bad I can't even see my
coffee," replied another.

"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a
third.

"My blood pressure pills make me dizzy," another contributed.

"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man.

Then there was a short moment of silence.

"Thank God we can all still drive," said one woman cheerfully.

Thank you, Sir, for your service to our country. The Canteen is here for our troops, veterans, their families, and our allies to have a home away from home where they are honored daily. We will NEVER forget.

They sure were. Thanks for sharing.

Your bird? Try looking over the cuckoo clock. I hear they fly over them.

How's this for inspiration? I love this picture

An extra set of wheels can come in handy sometimes.
