Must retire – the 0500 Reveille approaches relentlessly.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer, already mounts the parapet.

Do poor Tom some charity, whom the foul fiend vexes!

Good night, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America!

Godspeed our Troops around the Globe – especially those in harm’s way – by virtue of their service and sacrifice we continue to live in Freedom!

Good & Plenty

September 12, 2012

I have to admit that I’ve got a sweet tooth. Of all the candies I love, Good & Plenty is near the top of the list. Life is good when I have a handful of those luscious, sugar-coated licorice pieces!

There are a lot of good things in life. But like a feast of Good & Plenty, the goodness is soon over. Even the best of the good things can afterward leave us feeling empty and even regretful. So when the psalmist declares, “I said to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord, apart from You I have no good thing’” (Ps. 16:2 niv), I am intrigued. We all know that God is good. But when was the last time we embraced Him as the ultimate good in our life?

The psalmist explains just how good God really is: He is our preserver (v.1), our total goodness-giver (v.2), our counsel and instruction (v.7), and the One who makes known “the path of life” and fills us with joy in His presence (v.11). Now that’s what I call good!

Unfortunately, too often we let lesser “goods” eclipse our acceptance of the everlasting goodness of God in our lives. The fleeting nature of lesser goods will ultimately disappoint us—you can count on it. Only God is truly good! And there is plenty of Him for all we need.

Oh, taste the goodness of the Lord
And savor all that He has done;
Draw close and give your praise to Him—
The holy, sovereign, faithful One. —Sper
God alone is good. Don’t settle for second best.

Read: Psalm 16

You are my Lord, my goodness is nothing apart from You. —Psalm 16:2
Bible in a Year:
Ezekiel 28-30

WELCOME TO THE


(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our
AWESOME
Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

Our local DC Metroland weather report

You prefer logical to emotional appeals. You like well structured arguments.
You are very clean and tidy. You take pride in taking good care of your possessions.
The Old-Fashioned Car Test

Happy Hump Day to everyone.
Another cool morning.
Seems like someone flipped a switch and now
we have low humidity, cool morning/evenings, and mild days.
Perfect fall weather.

We're gearing up here at work
for the end-of-year madness.
I'm trying to get ahead of it so that
well before Sept. 30 we'll be drumming our fingers
while other finish their part. LOL
I know...dream on.

First, I need to post and check out pings, then
I need to get ready for the morning walk.

But, please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops and their families entertained.

The Canteen is

Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

Don't mean to wander - my heart is full of things past this evening. My glass is lifted to my Uncle Joe, to the Fallen of 9-11, and to all who have stood up in defense of our Freedom!

We have a lot of those days as we get older, don't we? Don't apologize...it's nice to have good memories.
Good morning CMN ((HUGS))
