  1. Go for it Tom. Glad you got a camera.
  2. Hang around and ask a lot of questions and you can be just like him. :D
  3. Dang Tom, I thank God you're OK. I hope the law catches up with them before someone gets seriously injured or killed. What idiots!!!
  4. OK, curiosity finally got the best of me as I couldn't figure out why out of all those pics Ray never got a pic with his dog's face in it. I emailed his neighbor Bruce and he snapped this one of Ray's dog. Now you know the rest of the story.

  9. The Vet They soar in jets above the land, They sail beyond the seas. They march across the desert, They crawl between the trees. No matter what the role they play Each chooses to protect The lives of all Americans. For this we owe a debt. Today, and every single day 'Til each returns safe and sound, Please say a little prayer with me For the troops: air, sea, and ground. God Please... Grant them courage, When times seem bleak. Grant them strength, When they feel weak. Grant them comfort, When they feel all alone, And most of all, God, Please bring them all home. Author Unknown

  11. The Soldier He was getting old and paunchy And his hair was falling fast, And he sat around the Legion, Telling stories of the past. Of a war that he once fought in And the deeds that he had done, In his exploits with his buddies; They were heroes, every one. And 'tho sometimes to his neighbors His tales became a joke, All his buddies listened quietly For they knew where of he spoke. But we'll hear his tales no longer, For ol' Bob has passed away, And the world's a little poorer For a Soldier died today. He won't be mourned by many, Just his children and his wife. For he lived an ordinary, Very quiet sort of life. He held a job and raised a family, Going quietly on his way; And the world won't note his passing, 'Tho a Soldier died today. When politicians leave this earth, Their bodies lie in state, While thousands note their passing, And proclaim that they were great. Papers tell of their life stories From the time that they were young But the passing of a Soldier Goes unnoticed, and unsung. Is the greatest contribution To the welfare of our land, Some jerk who breaks his promise And cons his fellow man? Or the ordinary fellow Who in times of war and strife, Goes off to serve his country And offers up his life? The politician's stipend And the style in which he lives, Are often disproportionate, To the service that he gives. While the ordinary Soldier, Who offered up his all, Is paid off with a medal And perhaps a pension, small. It's so easy to forget them, For it is so many times That our Bobs and Jims and Johnnys, Went to battle, but we know, It is not the politicians With their compromise and ploys, Who won for us the freedom That our country now enjoys. Should you find yourself in danger, With your enemies at hand, Would you really want some cop-out, With his ever waffling stand? Or would you want a Soldier-- His home, his country, his kin, Just a common Soldier, Who would fight until the end. He was just a common Soldier, And his ranks are growing thin, But his presence should remind us We may need his like again. For when countries are in conflict, We find the Soldier's part Is to clean up all the troubles That the politicians start. If we cannot do him honor While he's here to hear the praise, Then at least let's give him homage At the ending of his days. Perhaps just a simply headline In the paper that might say: "OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING, A SOLDIER DIED TODAY." Author Unknown
