68-69TonkinGulfYatchClub and FRiends of the Canteen

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.

You're doing a wonderful job keeping the Canteen together, Tonkin.
I have a photo of my nephew who is on the USS BELLEAU WOOD. He's in the 11th MEO, whatever that means. I would like to post it here soon.
Thanks for keeping the Canteen alive!

Various thoughts from my "voices":
Man does not survive on words alone, despite the fact that
sometimes he has to eat them.
To repeat what others have said requires education; to challenge
it requires a brain.
Plan ahead - it wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark!
I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.
Why should a person suffer in silence when they can moan, cry,
whimper and complain.
Faith is believing in something common sense tells us not to.
You can't scare me - I'm a school bus driver!
Death is life's way of telling you that you're fired!
You know you're getting old when the candles on the cake cost
more than the birthday cake!
Love is like a blind elephant, if it doesn't find a way, it will
make a way.

Hi. I was earlier flirting with a Korean era Army nurse over on another thread. He looked good in uniform too.

"Ugly, ugly drive to work. The whole city is a sheet of rain. Everybody on my route drove swiftly through door high puddles Sliding and fishtailing at all intersections. A white knuckle drive." Kathy, are you sure this wasn't Jacksonville?
The best combination we found was a HEAVY 72-1978 Cadillac El Dorado with front-wheel drive
This reminds me of an old Johnny Cash song, about a guy who slowly steals a caddy off the assembly line...and it kinda goes like this:
I got it one piece at a time, and it didn't cost me a dime- you'll notice me when I come through your town.
Gonna ride around in style, gonna drive everybody wild."Cause I'll have the only one there is around.
Well, it's a 49-50-51-52-53-54-55-56-57-58-59 automobile.
I'm not showing my age, my 16 year old discovered this.
