Good to hear that. I'm pretty much over my cold as well. I slept pretty much all night long last night.

Good to see people getting better...

FAFA and anyone else who lurves their 5D.... http://cpn.canon-europe.com/content/mas​terclass/eos_5d.do Section 10ish was particularly interesting...I didn't realize how to set up the Custom function on the mode dial. Wicked cool, going to use that for my studio stuff!

Link me at home please....no speakers at work.

ROFLMAO! Write it anyway.

Hmmm that dream could be misinterpreted due to the censor. Everyone please dream of good STUFF and forgive my potty mouth.

Potty mouth forgiven. Not sure I had time to dream.

Side note on the insignia Dan drew. Three stripes now are given to Senior Airmen. The rank of Sargent is no longer in the structure. When I went in it was Airmen Basic - no insignia; Airman - 1 stripe; Airman 1st Class-2 stripes; Sargent - 3 stripes; Staff Sargent - 4 stripes. While still in they added Senior Airman which took over 2 stripes, Airman lost their star and Airman 1st Class was 1 stripe with a star. I think the brass were bored and had nothing better to do then to mess with the ranks and make it take longer to reach NCO status.

There is your trivia for the day.

As a medic we wore our rank as tack pins on the lapels of our white uniforms. I achieved the rank of Sargent when my parents came to visit while I was at George AFB. They were able to be there when our CO presented me with the rank and my Dad pinned on my new stripes. It was our, "you've reached adulthood" moment that each of us kids had at some significant point in our early 20's with our dad. *wipes leaky eyes*

Sure wish I could find the pictures. I'm sure I have them, somewhere.

Very cool moment!

Morning all...bit of a tragedy in the area last night (not trying to be a downer) as there was a murder/suicide...the lady had made the news a while back for taking her firearm to her child's soccer game....her husband allegedly shot her. Can't help but wonder....nah. I'll leave my thoughts to myself. Their kids were home. That's what bugs the heck outta me. At least one is Blondie's age.

Eeks. That sucks.

G'mae all.

Oh, I can't say I'm "better". I'm just not as sick as I was...

So far i have avoided any fall illness. I think it's because i no longer have kids in school. Schools are natures virus breeding ground.

Despite having lungs that are crappy I am a pretty healthy girl .I remember while in the hospital getting a lung biopsy , the doctor coming in and telling me you are so healthy but we got bigger fish to fry

So I have had the flu and a cold so far this year and thats way more than I like .I"m going to say this cold was Andys fault he works in the public alot ..another bredding ground for colds and flu

HAHAHA.....we have swine flu going around in ours. We've already had a couple of cases.

Honestly though, I rarely get sick. But, I teach high school and they are germaphobes this year.

Becky ..passes tissues with a smile .Sometimes memories are bittersweet but I"m always grateful to have them .(((((((((((((Becky)))​)))))))))

Hi Tiff , oh I bet you hear and see alot
