This thread Will never die!

Found this today:

"Changing the date merely to create three-day weekends has undermined the very meaning of the day. No doubt, this has contributed a lot to the general public's nonchalant observance of Memorial Day"

VFW 2002

 

Hello again earthlings. Prepare to be devoured.

 

Thinking about the 4th this week...and my inner pyromaniac...

The Night I Painted The Sky
Jimmy Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer

I CAME FROM THE NORTH ESCAPING CONVENTION
THE MODERN INVENTION THAT WON'T LET ME BE ....
TO THE SHORES OF ST. MAARTEN WITH MY DICTION ADDICTION
TO RESTART THE FIRE A DREAMER'S REMEDY...

Verse
INDEPENDENCE DAY AND ALL I REMEMBER
WAS A MIDNIGHT RAINBOW THAT FELL FROM THE SKY....
AS I STAND ON THE BEACH I SLOWLY SURRENDER
TO THE CHILD IN ME WHO CAN'T SAY GOOD-BYE ....


Chorus
THE ROCKETS IN THE AIR
AND THE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE...
PUT AWAY THEIR DIFFERENCES FOR AWHILE.
OH I AM STILL A CHILD WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING WILD......
THAT WAS THE NIGHT I PAINTED THE SKY


Verse
I DUG IN THE SAND LIKE A BOY, ON A MISSION
AND THERE IN MY HANDS A PYRO'S DELIGHT....
A BOMBADIER, A NIGHTTIME MAGICIAN
I SPARK THE SKY AS THE ROCKETS FLY FROM VIEW ..


Verse
OH THE MORTARS THEY ROAR IN ANTICIPATION....
PRECEDING THE SIGH OF THE UPLIFTED EYES .
IT SHOWERS US ALL IN SULFURIC SENSATION....
THE COLORS SHINE IN A FIERY RHYME TONIGHT .

Chorus
THE ROCKETS IN THE AIR
AND THE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
PUT AWAY THEIR DIFFERENCES FOR AWHILE...

I AM BUT A CHILD WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING WILD.......
OH THAT WAS THE NIGHT,
THAT WAS THE NIGHT,
OH THAT WAS THE NIGHT I PAINTED THE SKY
PAINTED THE SKY.......





You can listen to it here...Pretty song.

My wife's K5 Blazer is starting to piss me off
maybe I'll run it over with my new truck

 

Anybody else getting logged off when using Today's Post hotlink or am I just the lucky one?

 

Ya know, what's worse is that even if they find the person(s) responsible, and go to trial. These psycho's will spend the rest of their life getting 3 squares a day, room & board all at the tax payer expense.

yes, there are some sick people out there, watch your six and teach your kids to watch their six too!

 

Nope...you're not alone. It's been doing it to me for a couple of months.....

 

Never had a problem with it

No problems here either. Everything loads just as fast at home or at work.

I'm using FF 3.0.12 at both locations.

 

I'm using FF as well....It only does it on "Todays Posts" not "New Posts"....go figure. No clue......

 

God's been putting on one heck of a light show in these parts the last few days.....




Of course, losing power, internet, phone, etc...was a tad inconvenient, but sorta nice at the same time....

 

WOW, that is purdy!!!

All we're gettin' here is rain, rain, rain, and guess what, more rain.
