    And a belated happy birthday to the Marine Corps.

    ------------------------------------------------

    Should anyone happen to see the documentary on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers-it's usually shown this time of the year-please take time to watch it. It's a very interesting and moving piece.

    I've never seen that Kipling poem before. A very appropriate one for today.

    Killearn Kitties,

    I was going to use another one, but it was a tad too graphic, even for the dog house.

    I just wanted to tell you a what happened on friday..
    I know four people that work in the area that are Veterans..

    I saw Eric (Navy) in the hallway and said to him, "Happy Vet's day..."

    And then I realized that it probably isn't "Happy" -while I kicked myself he told me that I was the first person who had mentioned it too him (It was around 2 in the afternoon when I saw him.....)

    "Thanks, you are the first person that mentioned it and that means alot to me!"

    --------------

    I went down stairs to talk to Claudia (USMC) and mentioned the MC B-DAY and thanked her for her service.....Her face lit up and she was pretty jazzed that someone remembered....


    I felt pretty good and they were pleased that someone remembered...It was the least I could do for them.....

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.
