Busy day and stopped at Micky Ds on the way home Must have had a dozen idiots pull outin front of me and all the rush of the season I was about done. Micky Ds had line I had to wait in for about 15 min. Was getting close to register when this little piece of fluff struts in the door followed by her larger than me escourt ape walking behing her. Jeans and shirt she had on were straining to hold things in. Yeah I looked!! Boyfriend or whatever took a seat and sent her to order. She took a look at the line bounce to the front of it and stepped in front of me as I was starting to order. I said Excuse me young lady but the end of the line is back there. She sputtered a little and went and reported thing to her feller. He came stomping up and stood staring at me trying to figure out what to say. At lest I think he could talk. I gave him a smile and said carefull young man you don't get more than you order. He looked at me several seconds turned and collected her and must have decided to eat somewhere else. Girl behind register was cracking up. Everyone in line was grinning I think. And here I stood thinking ' Old man you are lucky you didn't get your butt handed to you..... Warden chewed on me all the way home!!!!

Soldier A soldier stood glancing at the dead He felt so pensive, and bowled his head Blood and gore painted the ground Tall men stood in melancholy, and made no sound Trying to stand brave, he wiped his tear A Canadian soldier must be strong, and show no fear A glorious victory but many soldiers lying sore May they rest in peace, for them there is no more war With his hand on his heart he turned to leave And whipped the rain from his skin with his sleeve He was contend, him and his country were free That’s when he thought, when will the next war be?

Here is a photo of my granddaughter with her first motorcycle at Christmas, this was the first time she ever stood still or quiet long enough to really learn anything, she must have really wanted to ride it, as she stood there for nearly ten minutes while granddaddy taught her the very, very basics. This one will travel 2.5 mph and we can barely keep up with her. The laughter, oh the laughter of a girl with her first bike. Priceless! We won't encourage her to ride barefoot but, it was just too hot for that Fleece Christmas suit and shoes that day; totally strange weather in the south this winter. Happy Trails.

At the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918 the armistice was signed ending WWI. In my younger years (a long long time ago) we would observe 2 minutes of silence at 11:00 each November 11 to honour those who stood, and still stand in harms way. Unfortunately, that tradition has not stood the test of time and we pay our respects by searching for the best deals on Veterans Day. So, for those who may have forgotten the significants of Veterans/Armistice/Poppy Day... and to my fellow brothers/sisters in arms [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8poZshcDj8g]www.youtube.com/watch?v=8poZshcDj8g[/ame] Stand tall, stand proud Black owl Combat certified crime crusher
