'morning, Cap'n. I don't know about Pippin, but since you assigned me to help her with the latrines, I'm just a little ticked at you I got such a dirty job.

:)

[Billie]

Good morning, John, and thank YOU! Love today's essay, and the graphics were a cinch to do. Dutchess had asked if I would post the thread again this week...she was so busy hostessing such an active thread yesterday, I searched for most of the graphics.....then when I talked with her later she told me she had saved some really neat protest graphics, too. Maybe you'll post some here, Dutchess? I love that cartoon one!

[Diver Dave]

Mornin' Billie, John. Another excellent commentary, JH2. Makes me want to shout, "YEAH! Right On, John!!!

And then you follow up with that article by Richard Benedetto. Thank God for men like our Commander-in-Chief and Arden Battle, MMCS USN and JohnHuang2! Atta Boy!!!

[Billie]

The sailor smartly saluted his commander in chief. His commander in chief smartly saluted him back. But then Bush reached out and shook the man's hand, put an arm around his shoulder and talked quietly with him, well out of the earshot of those on the tarmac. They posed for a picture and then the sailor presented the president with a black baseball cap emblazoned with the name of his ship, the USS John F. Kennedy, an aircraft carrier better known in Navy circles as the "Big John" and now in port here.

Oh, golly, John - thank you for posting that here, because I probably wouldn't have had time to check out the thread today. I would love to see the picture.

A great essay on the Pro-terrorists!!!

I witness the anti-American sentiment every Friday! These people hate our President and they hate our country.
The article about Arden Battle and our President brought tears to my eyes and pride in our military and our country. Thank you, John!!

[Billie]

Thanks, dutchess! Yes, I have been a busy bee this week. :)

I miss our daisy so much, and miss dansy's and Lori's more frequent presence here....hope the training session is almost over, dansy, and Lori, I hardly know how to begin to tell you how much we are all thinking of you and the emotional and physical stress you're going through. Take care of yourself, too - we miss you and pray that GrammyBear is steadily improving.

Morning, Meekie - cold and damp outside - the hot chocolate is very welcome. :)

[Billie]

Good morning, Rus - still having to take an ice and snow break from work?

[MeekOneGOP]

You're welcomed.

It sure is cold and rainy. Pippin said that it's as cool here as in 'Merry Land'...

[Diver Dave]

I've volunteered on many occasions in the past and it sounds like the call for help has gone out again. LadyX is gonna need help manning the oars so I'll man the starboad oar so you won't be traveling in circles. I'll take care of the hull inspection, too. Lots of experience and I work cheap (thought that would get your attention).

[Billie]

Good morning, jw - oh, how I wish daisy were here to enjoy that picture!

And then you had to go and mention all that yummy breakfast food - sure makes my banana and toast pale in comparison!

[Billie]

Libby!!! I finally am here at least not too long after you posted, so I can say good morning to you! I read many of your posts, but it's usually the day after when I see you were here! : (

[JustAmy]

Thanks, Meeky, I needed that!!

[jwfiv]

Ahh, a bacon lover, eh? Makes me hungry, too...)

btw, I think your Billie Rose Butterfly graphic is extreeeeeemely cool.

[Billie]

Hi, Dave - BOTH of John's postings were great reading this morning, weren't they! Am so glad he's ours at least once a week. :)

[Billie]

WOW! It's Amy! You're here, I'm here. I don't believe it! Hi, JustFRiend!

[MeekOneGOP]

You're welcomed !

[JustAmy]

Good morning, Billie!!!
Another wonderful presentation!
I've been looking for a special gif for you but finally decided that I would be so far behind by the time I found one that I'd better just give you more flowers.


Thank you for our daily thread!!

Welcome aboard, Diver Dave.

Billie:
We are going to be at sea several months and many times it will not be easy. If you have a legitimate handicap, we can of course put you on light duty. Otherwise, continue with digging latrines.

LadyX:
What's this about only a ten mile hike this morning. As you can see by Billie's whine, we need to get this crew in ship shape before we sail Tuesday. Take 'em out for another five.

I will be checking out the hotel buffet.

I didn't miss it.
