Many of you have asked if there was another way to contact
our military men and women besides sending e-mails.
This might make an easy to do classroom project or office project.
Just click on the links in the graphic to find out what to do.

"The Doctor said, "I didn't say that. I said you got a heart murmur. Be careful."

You are on a roll, Radix, on a roll.

We will expect a picture of the jungle gym "thingy" that caused you such pain when it's all put together.

I may just burn the darned thing!!

I'm so mad at myself for being such a dummy! Aaaargh!

Aaaw, I won't make the critters suffer because their momma is an idiot. Once I can move again, I'll assemble it and get a pic. Maybe I can sweet-talk my hubby into putting it together. He hasn't offered to yet. I think I'm being taught some kind of lesson or something. LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

AP, thank you so much for all the wonderful graphics you bring to the Canteen. And thanks again for all the wonderful food you brought the troops for the holiday season. G-d bless you good.

Good Night!!!

For Pete's Sakes you have not driven the thing yet!

We have to do this ourselves?

Sheeeeeeesh!

Oh good night then Radix, Silly Rabbit!

[radu]

Chocolate is a vegetable!

I like this vegetable. Radu, it's not green!!

Chok-lit's the best vegetable I can think of. Yummy!! And yep, you can eat all you want, since it's not green!! (once you get past the 7-Up and soup stage, that is.)

[Soaring Feather]

Well since our driver has left us, once again LOL, I am going to turn down the cot too!

It's 3:15am now, say good night bentfeather!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good night and sleep well, Radix. God bless you good for the honor you help the Canteen pay to our troops. Thank you for your service to our country, and thank you 2LT Radix JR for your service to our country now.

[radu]

Good night, Radix. Sleep well. This was fun!

I'll keep my fingers crossed the Patriots win tomorrow. We don't need you in deep doo doo.

Oh my, we're both "Rads". Now that's a scary thought, isn't it? ROTFLOL!!

[radu]

Howdy!!!

I just now saw your post. I'm waaaaay behind (as usual) and struggling to keep up.

Good to see you. Hope all's well your way!

Jimmy received a parrot for Christmas. The parrot was fully grown, with a very bad attitude and worse vocabulary.

Every other word was an expletive; those that weren't expletives were, to say the least, rude. Jimmy tried to change the bird's attitude by constantly saying polite words, playing soft music... anything he could think of. Nothing worked.

He yelled at the bird, and the bird got worse. He shook the bird, and the bird got madder and more rude.

Finally, in a moment of desperation, Jimmy put the parrot in the freezer. For a few moments he heard the bird swearing, squawking, kicking and screaming and then, suddenly, there was absolute quiet.

Jimmy was frightened that he might have actually hurt the bird, and quickly opened the freezer door.
The parrot calmly stepped out onto Jimmy's extended arm and said, "I'm sorry that I offended you with my language and my actions, and I ask your forgiveness. I will endeavor to correct my behavior".

Jimmy was astounded at the changes in the bird's attitude and was about to ask what had changed him, when the parrot continued, "May I ask what the Chicken did?

Good night and sleep well, ms feather! I hope you have voice back tomorrow. Thanks so much for all the wonderful poems you found today for our troops. God bless you good and thanks for organizing tonight's ride. zzzzzzzzzooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmm!!!

[radu]

Good night, bentfeather. Get some rest and get well soon!

Thank you for getting out of your sick bed to show your support for our beloved troops.

Get-well HUGS for ya.

[Soaring Feather]

GOOD NIGHT TROOPS

WE LOVE YOU AND SUPPORT YOU!

BE SAFE!

[radu]

LOL!!!

Dang Kathy. Everyone's going to sleep. Guess it is late, though. Don't know if I can handle that ambulance but I know I can handle this sweetie. It rides smooth, too, which I definitely need at this point in time. LOL!! There's plenty of room for some of the troops who might like to come along.
This was taken the day my hubby brought the car home from Illinois. I was so excited I couldn't help but ham it up a bit.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Oh my radu, is this one of the ones you take to shows? I'm ready for a ride. You do realize that the "sedate crew" is here? Hehehehe! That would be us. My stomach is not up to any fast driving quite yet. OK, I'm ready.

Actual yesterday in Anchorage:

Hi 6F
Lo -2F

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! How do you stand it up there??! I'm sitting here with goosebumps just seeing this post. LOL

[radu]

We don't take this car to shows but we do take it to cruise-ins. They're kinda like car shows but there's no judging. Just hanging out together and letting folks come by and look at all the cars. "The Freakazoid" (our name for this wild thing) could use a new paint job to eliminate a few scratches. Til that's done, it's not really show quality. It's great to drive around in.

It really is smooth so it'll be perfect for your unsettled tummy and my bunged up back. Nice and slooooow is the order of the rest of the evening. Yep, the "Sedate Crew" is definitely the right name for us. giggle!!!!

Comr on, troops, sit back and enjoy the scenery as we cruise.

[Kathy in Alaska]

"BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! How do you stand it up there??"

More clothes! I don't do the skiing, snowmachining, hiking thing any more. Too many "old" problems, but when I do things like the zoo with my niece, you wear more clothes, and stop to warm up a strategic places. LOL! Maybe just living here makes you blood change. My whole family is born and raised southern California, but we love it here.

I really like this shot. The children all look so happy. I'm sure they're very thankful to the U.S. forces for remodelling their school in Kabul.
