Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
Hooking up words and phrases and clauses.
Conjunction Junction, how’s that function?
I’ve got three favorite cars that get most of my job done.
Conjunction Junction, what’s their function?
I’ve got and, but, and or.
They’ll get you pretty far.

And!
That’s an additive, like this and that.
But!
That’s sort of the opposite,
not this but that.
And then there’s Or. O-R,
when you have a choice like this or that
And, but, and or get you pretty far!

Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
Hooking up two boxcars and making ‘em run right.
Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice,
(Hey that’s nice)
Dirty but happy, digging and scratchin’.
Losing your shoe and a button or two,
He’s poor but honest, sad but true,
Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
Hooking up two cars to one
When you say something like this choice
Either now or later
Or no choice:
Neither now nor ever.
(Hey that’s clever)
Eat this or that, Grow thin or fat
Never mind, I wouldn’t do that
I’m fat enough now!

Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
Hookin’ up phrases and clauses that balance, like:
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
He cut loose the sandbags,
but the balloon wouldn’t go any higher.
Let’s go up to the mountains or down to the seas.
You should always say Thank you,
Or at least say Please!

Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
Hookin’-up words and phrases and clauses
in complex sentences like:
“In the mornings, when I am usually wide awake, I love to take a walk through the gardens and down by the lake, where I often see a duck and a drake, and I wonder as I walk by what they would say if they could speak, although I know that’s an absurd thought.”

Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
Hookin’-up cars and making them function.
Conjunction Junction, how’s that function?
I like tying up words and phrases and clauses.

Conjunction Junction, watch that function!
I’m going to get you there if you’re very careful.
Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
I’m going to get you there if you’re very careful.

You Are a Noun
You are very concerned with the material world and what is actual.
Facts interest you, and it's likely that you keep up with the latest news.

You do well with ideas and concepts you can actually see. You are a very visual person.
You are the type who knows every person and place in town. You're very well informed.

You Are an Adjective

You are a very expressive person. You have a way with words, and you’re never at a loss for what to say.
You can describe something perfectly. You can paint a picture with your story and make people feel like they were there.

You are fanciful and dreamy. You tend toward being a little dramatic. Everything is a big deal for you.
For you, a day is not simply nice. It’s “beautiful,” “idyllic,” “balmy,” or “superlative.”

I didn’t take the quiz but I’m pretty sure I’m a dangling participle.

Evening, Kathy.

Apparently I’m a conjunction, and I like connectivity, but sometimes I still feel like a verb.

And you?

Knee is doing okay, thanks! I was supposed to get an epidural cortisone shot for my back today but could not have it done because I'm still on blood thinners from the tendon surgery. Had to reschedule. Otherwise, all is going according to plan.

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!





CPO Raymond J. Border, USN, Navy Mobile Construction Battalion 74, KIA Afghanstan 19Oct2011



I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)


Eternal Father, Strong to Save



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, amid these who heeded the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!



Taps
