~Favorite City Songs~





Kings of Leon - Manhattan live


Well
I could dance all night
And some of the day
That's how I play
That's how I play

I say who are you
No matter who you are
So you dance all night
And you dance all day

I say
I say

Gonna build a fire
Gonna smoke it up
Gonna sip this wine
And pass the cup

These avenues and
these reseviors
We gonna show this town
How to kiss these stars

I say
I say

You've come to kill
Gonna spend it high
Your parents grieve
I know they are right

And then talking to you
Well they calm you down
So it's all for you
who let you down

I say
I say
I say
I say

Just wanna take you hand
I'm gonna drive you home
Just gonna keep on
Keep on, keep on
And you gonna have a rest

George Strait - Amarillo By Morning


"Amarillo By Morning"

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone. Everything that I've got is just what I've got on. When that sun is high in that Texas sky I'll be bucking it to county fair. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo I'll be there.

They took my saddle in Houston, broke my leg in Santa Fe. Lost my wife and a girlfriend somewhere along the way. Well I'll be looking for eight when they pull that gate, And I'm hoping that judge ain't blind. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's on my mind.

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone. Everything that I've got is just what I've got on. I ain't got a dime, but what I got is mine. I ain't rich, but Lord I'm free. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be.

Good morning Old Sarge. A lot of that job reminds me of fire and guard duty from AIT. Checkout lists for each facility.

I have to check about 100 locks and doors late at night. Turn on security lights and inside lights go off. Turn on various alarms, etc.

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, fatima, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
Well first up Publius posted Summer in the City
which put me right in the mood
to start clicking links.

The DC Metroland weather report

~ Today...Sunny.
Highs in the lower 80s.
Northeast winds 5 to 10 mph.

~ Tonight...Mostly clear.
Lows around 60.
East winds 5 to 10 mph.

Okay, who is sending the hot, hot weather to the east coast?
We've been perfectly fine and now
weatherman said storms and mid-90s on the way.

Time for me to make my rounds.
But, you stay right where you are.
Don't leave the room...I'll be bock!

Remember, the Canteen is

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

REMEMBER THEM - DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above.
Honoring those who have served before.

Sadly, the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem have all passed away. But they live on in the recordings they made and in a new generation of Irish musicians inspired by their example.



Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
