*Veterans Day*!

The day to salute our members of the United States Armed Forces

Both Past and Present.

A day to remember those who have given a part of themselves

to the country that they love.

To the Freedoms we so enjoy.

I am a veteran too.

I served my country for over 2 decades.

Proudly Served!

Many of my friends served with me.

Mark from Chesapeake,

Steve and Eric in Charleston,

AJ and Bret who are still serving,

Ed and Tim in Virginia Beach,

Candy, my sister

John, my father

My Grandfather, Van

and so many others

it would take pages to list them all.

We all proudly wore the uniform.

We did what we had to do.

To keep this country and her people free.

Many have died doing what we did and

today they are looking down on us and smiling.

Proud to have given what was most precious,

their lives, for they are the real heroes.

From the sands of Iwo Jime, the shores of Anzio,

Kuwait, Iraq, France, Germany, Grenada, Pearl Harbor

to New York, Washington

Our soldiers and sailors carry the flag.

Today we stand a little taller, a little prouder!

Because today is OUR Day!

If you see a veteran today,

shake his or her hand

and tell them thank you.

To all the Vet's that see this,

MY THANK YOU!

For I salute you and the service

you so proudly provided!

I am proud to have served with you!

A Plan to help France

President Bush has authorized the Joint Chiefs to begin drawing up a battle plan to pull France out of the fire again. Facing an apparent overwhelming force of up to 400 pissed off teenagers Mr. Bush doubts France's ability to hold off the little piss-ants. "If the last two world wars are any indication, I would expect France to surrender any day now", said Bush.

Joint Chiefs head, Gen. Peter Pace, warned the President that it might be necessary to send up to 5 marines to get things under control. The general admitted that 5 marines may be overkill but he wanted to get this thing under control within 24 hours of arriving on scene. He stated he was having a hard time finding even one marine to volunteer to help the ungrateful French out for a third time but thought that he could persuade a few women marines to do the job before they went on pregnancy leave.

President Bush asked Gen. Pace to get our marines out of there as soon as possible after order was restored. He also reminded Gen. Pace to make sure the marines did not take soap, razors, or deodorant with them. The less they stand out the better.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
