SOUP FOR THE TROOPS
WELCOME TO THE
(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)
Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities
Sorry I'm late. Had a morning walk.
and now I need to get to work.
Bossman coming in later, too.
First, I'll get in my hellos while starting a project.

A sprinkle of this...a pinch of that...
During the mating season, male porcupines
bristle their quills at each other
and chatter their teeth in rage before attacking.
All porcupines at this time become very vocal:
grunting, whining, chattering,
even barking and mewing at each other.
Comets speed up as they approach the Sun
sometimes reaching speeds of over a million miles per hour.
Far away from the Sun, speeds drop,
perhaps down to as little as 700 miles per hour.
The 1,340-foot-long wall
that gave New York's Wall Street its name
was only 12 feet tall.
It was erected in 1653 by Dutch colonists
to protect against their enemies.
Songs with sexual or violent lyrics are not new.
Cole Porter's sensual "Love for Sale" was a hit in 1930,
but the tune was banned from radio for decades.
Blues singers of the 1920s and R&B bands of the 1950s
performed songs that were thick with the blatant double-entendre.
Additionally, traditional ballads of Scotland, Ireland,
and the American Appalachians
are filled with stories of murder.
I've got to make my rounds, quickly.
Have a meeting in about 30 minutes.
But, you stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!
Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS
PLEASE REMEMBER THEM ....

"Additionally, traditional ballads of Scotland, Ireland, and the American Appalachians are filled with stories of murder."
I'm sure there's no doubt about bawdy songs from there.
