I got perfume...hubby got a chair.

OOOOOOO-kay. Either that was some expensive perfume or one really cheap chair. Or it's a typical male-female thing like at my house. ;-)

No lace involved!
What? No antemacassar, er, doily on the back of the chair?

... wish I had a chair ...

While Iraqi Army soldiers are on patrol in central Baghdad they pass a man painting the Iraqi national flag on the wall of a bridge on Wednesday. President Bush warned yesterday that a drawn-out fight over war spending will only harm troops in Iraq and scolded Congress for going on vacation before the matter was resolved.

 

You won't see images of  Nancy Pelosi wearing her painters hard hat  during her recent trip to Iraq anywhere else but on the Free Republics Canteen World News Service.

 

 

 

An Air Force F-22A Raptor gathers condensation clouds around the hull as it performs in the 42nd Naval Base Ventura County Air Show at Point Mugu on Sunday near Ventura, Calif. The aircraft is not flying supersonic.

 

You won't see images of condensation clouds on the National Network News programs whenever the Speaker of the House  spits all over the U.S. Constitution either.

 

 

On Wednesday President Bush greets troops inside a Humvee during his visit to the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, Calif.

 

The Sargent First Class insisted on authenticating with the Old Man before accepting the CIC into his little less than adequately armored HumVee world, in a special report in the latest Time magazine.

 

 

 

President Bush poses for photos with troops during his visit to the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, Calif., on Wednesday.

 

Hey Mister President, is that a Pledge Pin on your uniform?

 

 

 

Petty Officer 2nd Class Brian Tewart of Pennsylvania and his mother, Karen Tewart, are reunited Tuesday during the homecoming of the submarine Minneapolis-St. Paul at Norfolk Naval Base, Va.

 

 

 

Army Pvt. Ryan Stultz, 19, of Big Fort, Montana, checks the canopy of his parachute during the pack phase of a parachute rigger's class Tuesday at Ft. Lee, Va. At the conclusion of the course, students will jump with the chutes they have personally packed.

 

In the upcoming sequel to Pulp Fiction, the biggest mystery for movie goers is anticipated to be...."What's in the parachute pack?

Howdy Ms B! How goes the Gorebal warming?

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Well I have to say that my place of work does care about the troops and Veterans and their families by donating for care packages or adding additional minutes to phone cards purchased for our Troops over seas and other things.
So it was nice to hear that we as employees now openly can show our support for our Troops.

Not that it mattered to me whether I can or not.
I’ve always done it out in the open and thanked a soldier when he/she was in the store and I get a chance.;)

[al baby]

Yes But more importantly

God Bless our Troops

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Ya need to sit on it with a screwdriver in your back pocket and "accidentally" split the cushion....*snicker*
