AuntiE Loc: 45th Least Free State

Last evening on a forum, the subject of grandchildren entered. A member was speaking about his grandson was a good kid, another said his was and another was diplomatic about entering the fray.

Here is your chance. There are rules. With Aunti, there are always rules, right. :roll: :-)

They CANNOT be great just because they are yours. You have to have something better than that. Th gentleman last evening was proud because his grandson had learned a great deal about he Constitution and was able to see where it was being ignored. Maybe they started a food drive. Maybe they take time to listen to what you have to say when they visit.

We have one member, who shall remain nameless (Slatten49) who has twenty-two. Heaven help us with the length this forum could progress with just his.

Ready, start.....GO

NO POLITICS :!: :!: :-P :!:

I feel like I'm being set-up! :oops: Yes, the Sgt. Major and I have 22 grandchildren, within our "blended" family. We have been married about 20 years, and each brought their own brood into our family. It has grown, since!

I will think a while before making occasional entrys onto this forum. I cannot risk or afford the overload on my computer or electrical system in my house with a novel on grandchildren.

I will say that they are all special in that they put up with a crusty, cantankerous, old Marine like their grandfather! For that, each deserves a medal for tolerance and understanding! Mostly, they just tolerate and pity this old fool. :roll: :lol: :mrgreen:

You are a mean woman, AuntiE! :hunf: :shock: :lol: :lol:

How is it mean for me to provide my fellow site members a way to share with us their special grandchildren?

Geez, even I could have started your grandchildren bragging with L of softball wonderfulness and talent, though she does have to wear a pitiful color. :lol: :-)

The only pitiful, sad color she wears is the reddish-pink of embarrassment I provide her with my appearances by the dugout, during the games! :thumbup:Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

You actually go into the dugout to harangue the poor child? :thumbdown:

Although I am aware you were he coach for a long time, do you somehow feel the coach of the Lady Longhorns is not up to the task of guiding her?

No, I have been "banned" from the actual dugout. I have to settle for just above it, in the stands. I can issue forth embarrassing moments from such a vantage point! :lol:

It is obvious your son and daughter-in-law raised a wonderful young woman to endure such embarrassment. :(

A Marine is only pathetic to the L*****t Progressives. Even when the Marines come to their rescue.

I may need "rescuing" after my last PM to AuntiE. I revealed our probable visit during the holidays. In doing so, I told her of our likely d********g behavior and contemptible eating habits!

I told her we would be ashamed of ourselves, in lieu of her absence. I doubt she sees any possible regret on our parts.
:shock: :mrgreen:

I am not speaking to your buddy. He hurt my feelings. :mrgreen: :cry: iIt will concern me if he participates in contemptible eating habits; however, he is on his own currently. :twisted:

Some Marines are pathetic when they are unkind to gentle, kind site confederates.

Are we in need of an "intervention", here, folks? :shock:

As you are the cause of his hurting my feelings, one has to question how you could be of any intervention assistance. :cry: :cry:

So, as I understand it, we are both "in the doghouse"?

Would some "puree'ed" BBQ serve as an apology? :shock:

I take full responsibility for my buddy, Saltys', behavior. He was simply, loyally, following my lead. He should not be punished for my egregious behavior. :-( :oops: :roll:
