[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

USO Canteen FReeper Style looking for people to
help post threads, graphics, links, prayers, jokes etc each day.
Full or Part time help needed.
Pay = Knowing that you helped someone in the military know that they are not forgotten.

Credit to HiJinx for this quote.

"Each day we take some time to pass on a message of support
to our active duty personnel, their families and veterans.
Some of us spend hours on end in the Canteen, and others just post once.
Whichever you doesn't matter, it's getting the message out to those we support that matters!"

Hmmmmm, I wish I'd been that lucky. I did that, too....3 times. At least it's loading, however slowly, now. It wasn't loading at all before.

I'm glad to be here finally. Got a lot of catching up to do. LOL!!

I hope you, and all your furry and feathered friends, are doing well. :-)

[Dubya]

Lot of trouble here. I have restarted several times and its a little better for awhile. Very slow posting today, slower than most days.

[Long Cut]

Hey, Feather, I just recieved that command photo I told you about yesterday in my email. I have NO idea of where or even how to post it, though.

It actually looks pretty cool.

[Soaring Feather]

Long Cut,

You have FReep Mail

[radu]

It's a relief to know I'm not the only one having trouble. I was afraid something might be wrong with our 'puter.

It's early. I've got all night to catch up on what y'all have been doing and see if I can contribute to the Canteen. :-)

[radu]

WED. NIGHT BIBLE STUDY

"Vulture" Appetites
Colossians 3: 1-10
Rules for Holy Living

1Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
2Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
3For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.
5Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.
6Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.
7You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. 8But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.
9Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices
10and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. --Colossians 3:2
While driving along a highway, I have often seen vultures soaring high overhead, swooping down, and then rising up again with the air currents. Every so often, a small group of them can be seen sitting right on the roadway, tearing apart and gobbling up the carcass of some unfortunate creature. I get the impression that these ugly birds are on the lookout continually for what is loathsome and repulsive!

Some people are like that. Nothing seems to satisfy them more than feasting on what is sinful, corrupt, and immoral. The books and magazines they read, the TV programs they watch, the conversations they engage in, and the activities they pursue reveal a vulture-like appetite.

How much better is the spiritual diet the Bible suggests:
"Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-- meditate on these things" (Phil. 4:8).

What kind of "food" do you prefer? Don't be like the vulture. Rather, "as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby" (1 Pet. 2:2).

Jesus Said " I am the way, by no other name can you be saved".

Welcome home Tonkin.

New FBI Warning... Local FBI warning In Pennsylvania!

The FBI has issued a warning in Lancaster County.
They suspect a terrorist may be hiding among the Amish community.
This photo provided the first clue that triggered the investigation:

Yippee, it's Friday! Welcome home. Nice callers? Weather report? Driving conditions? *HUG* I hope the weather cooperated for "helo ops" night. And that all went well and safely.

I'm sorry to hear that. I know how much you look forward to it each week.

I hope things are smoothing out for you. I've been concerned.

[Long Cut]

Got it, and just sent the pic. Let me know how it works, I'll be checking in and out for a while.
