Eagles Dominion I will not forget...
We walked among the crosses
Where our fallen soldiers lay.
And listened to the bugle
As taps began to play.
The Chaplin led a prayer
We stood with heads bowed low.
And I thought of fallen comrades
I had known so long ago.
They came from every city
Across this fertile land.
That we might live in freedom.
They lie here ‘neath the sand.
I felt a little guilty
My sacrifice was small.
I only lost a little time
But these men lost their all.
Now the services are over
For this Memorial Day.
To the names upon these crosses
I just want to say,
Thanks for what you’ve given
No one could ask for more.
May you rest with God in heaven
From now through evermore.

Safetydude posted on Pet Peeves This is not exactly a pet peeve but my left foot is in a cast!
I hurt for a couple of months and then I went to the Quack and he sent me to have an MRI and somehow I have a broken toe and along with that I've torn something that allows the lubricating fluid around the the joint to leak out and maybe I've got bursitis.
I was doing just fine 'till I agreed to let Miss Tina come with me to my doctor's appointment. They ganged up on me and I'm off work for three weeks, just to start.
According to them if I don't behave I may need surgery!
This is the end of my first day and I'm going crazy.

Gerty Now, now, Mr.'dude...these are the times that try men's souls. (I read that somewhere. )
Think of this as more time to spend with us; more time with Miss Tina; that project you've been putting off; etc.!
I think there is something being sold out there that allows you to watch all kinds of movies from the past...even radio shows.
You can do it!

Safetydude I've heard about those machines...
End of Saturday, day two and counting.
On Mother's Day were having a little BBQ on the clubhouse patio and since I can't do much moving around I'm the griller.
Happy Mother's Day to all that it applies to.

Balogreene Mr. Safetydude, when I was about 25, I got a "bad sprain" to my left ankle. I kept it wrapped, used crutches for a while, drove my sister's automatic. After a couple of months, I went to an orthopedic surgeon who told me I'd torn every tendon and ligament in my ankle. It was mostly healed, but healed wrong. The front ligaments and tendons are too long, the back too short. I go down stairs one step at a time, the ankle just doesn't work right. I always say, listen to the Dr. you don't want to be crippled for life.

Number three in line to the Throne of England meets ???
Maybe she would be a fit in Chi-town but this does not belong in the White House.
Does she not know anything about Bess, Mamie, Jackie, Lady Bird, Pat, Betty, Rosalyn, Nancy, Barbara, Hillary and Laura?

Balogreene You know Safetydude, Sunday, on my way home from work, I was wondering about you. Hadn't seen you for a while, I thought. Glad to see your post. That is a pretty kitty. I know she is at the bridge waiting for you, and the rest of yours.

Balogreene I never appreciated Jonathan Winters, or Robin Williams, until I saw them on a story about Winters (I think it was 60 MInutes ). The two were friends from the Mork and Mindy days, and did a stand-up, playing off each other, in Winter's garden. It was hilarious. All improv of course. A brilliant mind. I am glad he lived a long life, and died naturally, as befitting a genius.

Eagles Dominion He was married to his wife for over 60 years, Joined the Marines at age 17 and served 21/2 years in the south pacific. Funny all the things you learn about someone after their death.
