Having read a number of your posts, I can't recall seeing much of any disagreement between yourself and I. I have no doubt I would have been proud to have served with you, although like you, I do not care for either water or air service. I preferred terra firma. It led to my being hit, but...at least I fell only a short ways! :wink:

BTW, my step-mom was both nurse and clinical psychologist.

Glad to have had this informal introduction :!: :thumbup:


May I just say to all who served, I am proud of you. Thank you for your service. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks for taking the time. Out.


One rarely, very. very rarely, gets to decide their next duty station or deployment. We go where told and do our best regardless of the circumstances. Everyone wearing a uniform is deserving the respect of those that didn't wear one. Aside from the Bergdahl's of course.

Just found this obituary among some old papers. Thought you might find it of interest.

New York (UPI). Veteran Pillsbury spokesman Poppin' Fresh died yesterday of a severe yeast infection and complications reusulting from repeated pokes to the belly. He was 71.

Doughboy was honored at one of the largest funeral ceremonies in recent years. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, the California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, Cap'n Crunch, Tony Tiger, and many others.

The graveside was piled high with flours as long-time friend Aunt Jemimah delivered the eulogy. She described Doughboy as a man who "never knew he was kneaded."

Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Still, even as a crusty old man, he was a roll model for millions.

Doughboy is survived by his second wife, Play Dough. they have two children and one in the oven. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes

So often we shorten the name, like you may become just the 9th. Any time you wonder, ask - we are happy to let you know, and include you.

Are you part of our Prayer Team? Stop by that site, it's not just prayers, it's funnies, our lives - now there's funnies, and odds and ends. Another Christian always more than welcomed. In fact, about 2-3 pages back, on that site, is a list of all who love Jesus. Our Armageddun keeps the list.

This is the site: Prayer Team: Members welcome #5

We also have a more serious praying site - but that too can include some 'funnies.' that one is: Praying for America--through the Psalms of David #2

Please visit.

And just as you figure out that NPP is a man, a post will come up that sounds as it it is written by a woman (or you hope that it is) and is signed SWMBO That is my wife She Who Must be Obeyed (SWMBO) We are just trying to keep you on your toes. After all you are a MARINE!
