THANK A VETERAN

HAPPY NOVEMBER!!!

Remember, Thursday is more than just a day off -
it's a day to THANK A VETERAN.

It's a day to set all else aside & remember we're Americans.
Think about everything that means & if your heart doesn't swell with pride, thank a vet on your way out of the country.

Sounds more like a welfare leach then a vet. A$$holer

I don't think A$$holer is a word.

Around 6 years ago Ms Rose suggested a few of us start our own blog,
That suggestion was so wise.

Wonder if Ms Rose got a birds eye view of a whurly bird today?

ROSE said...

YAY! I not only got a bird's eye view of a whirly bird, I got to climb all over it & everything! Not just 1, but 2!! Good times, man, good times!!

All you veterans, please accept this heartfelt THANK YOU for all you do, all you give & all you sacrifice in the quest for American well-being.

Thank a vet today. If you can't find anything to thank a vet for, at least wave to one on your way to the passport office.

Does this old hound dog smell a hint of jealousy in that last remark?

ROSE said...

Ya know, "thou shalt *not*" is so yesterday. I hereby declare this a "thou shalt" world. Really, isn't that what we all want, anyway? >;)

Oh-oh is that an invitation or a threat?

Here's one for ya Ms Rose,

That's not what the bible says.
Actually, I think it was thou mayest not.
Murder is murder, plain and simple.
How would you feel if the US were occupied by another country?
Suddenly the term terrorist takes on a new meaning.
It goes from scum of the earth murderer to freedom fighter instantly when applied to us.
Oh, I know, because I speak the truth, that makes me a commie or welfare leech or whatever half witted little name you can squeeze out of your narrow little mind.
But, whatever.
This is America, and we are all entitled to our opinions, because just like a$$holes, everybody's got one.

ha ha you got the wrong man I think. got into something lately. I got the same ancestors as Arthur Friend. my GGGGrrrreat granpa was a brother to Rosanna Butler who married Willis Friend. their parents were JEREMIAH and MARGARET JANE[chapman] BUTLER OF Butlers bend[two run]. Margaret was reared at RED HOUSE, the old Dave Legg home just below Ivydale. Now what I've been leading up to is that JOHNNY APPLESEEDs real name was John Chapman, I believe, so that very likely we're related to JOHNNY [APPLESEED] Chapman. how you like them apples? HIyo GOLDEN DELICIOUS found your pappy. came from OTTER[Ivydale] he did by golly. we still got stray Chapmans running round here. to be cont.

That didn't make a bit of sence,

That's the difference between being sane and insane.

Like I said before a mind is a terrible thing to waste but in this case its many minds with many waste. Is there intelligent life in Clayberry?

just think, next summer we will have egg suckers and corn dodgers and a farmers market and a cleaner greener ELK river full of helgrammites and hell-benders, fewer logs these days and maybe a new high school so the scammers can scam us again. a casino with handicap access so's I can get to the one armed bandits. not talking about jerry and randy. maybe wes all will get log ponds with running water. Darn, hit the bottom line.
