Congrats to your Mom and her service.
My wife was also in the Navy. She was our war hero! She was in country during Desert Storm. She would call me every now and then and it never failed, the call would end with another Scud missile going overhead and she would have to run off and get in her bio-gear. I have to say it was the hardest 6+ months of my life. When the bombing first started I took a week off work and spent it with her Dad. As a survivor of Iwo Jima, he wound up with a Purple Heart with 2 Stars for his service along with a Bronze Star, I figured he could help me get through her service at that time. He was such a great man. Raised a wonderful family. Darn, my eyes are leaking again. She wrote to us, her sons and I trying to make us feel better about her safety. She wrote one time and told us we didn't have to worry about her as there were 70,000 Marines behind her. We all wrote her back telling her we would feel a lot better if the Marines were in front of her!
When she came home we had a homecoming for her at my Mom's farm in NE Oklahoma. The youngest son told her never to do it again. He continued telling her that she had no idea how hard it was for him to get time off, he was in the Army, to come to the homecoming. He told her she had no idea how hard it was to admit to his Captain that it was for a returning soldier from Desert Storm. And admitting it was his Mother who was returning. He told her, "you have no idea how hard it was to tell my Captain that my Mother has seen more action than he has and he was in the Army Infantry!"
Well, everyone, have a good night.
Oh, congrats on winning the mod, Matt!
Thanks. That's two I've won recently. Maybe it's time to play the lottery. :thumb:

Wow, that's amazing. What a great thing she did. Jup, it's so hard to send a family member to deployment, but even my heart swells with pride for her service, and that of all our vets.

No, I was corrected and Gary is right, it is a vine. My BAD! :confused:
I know it is, and knew it then, just had to mess with him! Cuz....yanno......it's what we do. lol

Morning porchers!

I'm off n running in a little while...renting a car, going to the Dr. for meds for this acute sinus infection( hard to breath even thru my mouth...forget about the nose...it's totally stuffed up) I'm going to get a large humidifier for the main part of the house and a small one for my bedroom,too.

It's going to be in the mid-70's today! I wanna play outside! Maybe I'll get a fishing pole and go to the small lake close by here...

Hope everyone has a great day!

Japanese Sex
A Japanese couple is arguing about how to perform highly erotic sex:
Husband: "Sukitaki. Mojitaka!"
Wife replies: "Kowanini! Mowi Janakpa!"
Husband says angrily: "Toka a anji rodi roumi yakoo!"
Wife on her knees literally begging: "Mimi nakoundinda tinkouji!"
Husband shouts angrily: "Na miaou kina Tim kouji!"
I can't believe you just sat there trying to read this - you don't know Japanese. You'll read anything as long as it is about sex ... You need serious help! Sometimes I worry about you.

What happened?
The first settlers in Australia must have thought they landed on a far-away planet. Marsupials are the predominant native animal? Poisonous snakes and insects all over the place? Mostly desert?

Nope, don't speak Japanese ... but my imagination filled in the blanks just fine. :D

Good morning, Porchers. Getting ready to have my picture taken for our Church directory. It feels strange doing it by myself. I can't wait to get the new directory, however, I'm always surprised at how others have aged over the 20+ years I have been going to this particular Church. Last year, when I went to SE Texas and attended my grandson's HS graduation, I went to the little Church we attended when we lived there. Wow, I didn't really recognize anyone.
