FReeper Canteen ~ Canteen Kids: Who's Your Favorite Engine? ~ Feb. 1, 2006
Loves The Troops! | Shorty Gigglelips

Posted on 01/31/2006 6:06:46 PM PST by StarCMC

 

Hi!  My name is Shorty and I am 4 years old!
First I want to say thanks for trying to keep us safe to all the soldiers out there!

Today I want to talk about my favorite TV show,

Thomas the Tank Engine

The show is all about Thomas and his friends.
Some of their names are Gordon and Percy.

My favorite engine is Emily, because when I play with my Emily in the living room, her wheels go deep in the carpet and I can pretend it's snowing.  Here's a picture of Emily:

Emily is green and she doesn't have a number.  Instead she just has some squares.

Another engine is James.

He's my second favorite engine because he's red and red is a pretty color.  James is number 5. 

There's a new engine called Molly.

I don't know much about her yet except that she's yellow.

 

Here are some fun things you can do online with Thomas:

Play games and more at Thomas' site!

 Some printable activity sheets here!

 Lost of stuff to know about Thomas here!

I hope you like my thread.  I had fun telling you about my favorite TV show.

Who is YOUR favorite engine?

Mornin' Beachy.
I don't guess we're gonna get a winter here this year.
It was scheduled for last Wednesday, but we didn't even get below freezing.

Ok, I know I've been gone a reallllllllllllly long time, but it's good to see all the same people around. I have to get ready for work, but I'll leave you with some morning military humor:

The elderly American gentleman arrived in Parisby plane.
At French Customs, he fumbled for his passport.
"You 'ave been to Franzz before, monsieur?" the customs
officer asked?sarcastically.

The old gent admitted that he had been to
France previously.

"Zen, you should know enough to 'ave your passport ready for inspection."

The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."

"Impossible. You Americans alwayz? 'ave to show your passports on
arrival in Franzz!"

The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look.
Then he quietly explained, "Well, when I came ashore at
OmahaBeachin '44 I couldn't find any Frenchmen to show it to!"

Especially when you consider it was sent to me by my 83 yo uncle, a WWII vet & Silver Star recepiant...his brother (my other uncle) died on the shores at Omaha beach.

It makes it even sweeter. ;o)
