Tyler, I know you must be asleep by now, but I wanted to let you know how much I thought of the poem you posted earlier Flanders Fields...really speaks to me right now as I wish all monkeys a very happy and safe Memorial Day. I am going to get off the computer right now, have my last smoke, and pray for all of our men and women who are fighting/have fought for our country and give some thanks. To all who have family, children, relatives or were once in the military yourselves, God Bless You!! And God Bless America!!

You know, the British are real sticklers for calling the male dogs "dogs" and the female dogs "bitches." Every time they say "bitch," I keep looking up at the TV screen expecting to see Glenda.    

U are tres funny ! ! !        
And devilish.    

Moi? Noooooooo....I'm a veritable little angel.

Yep, but I am holier than thou today.    
Tomorow I will be back to myself.      

[mishy]

Sunfreak, I am here, but by the time you read this, I'll have taken my leave. Am also saying prayers for you, dear monkey friend...Good night and sleep well..

[klaasend]

GOODNIGHT ALL!

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

John McCrae: In Flanders Fields (Published: 1915)

Just had to post it.

Tylergirl, and other Good Monkeys  Hope you don't mind me adding these to your post:




If it weren't for our active military and our Veterans, we wouldn't have our Freedoms and one of them would be that we would never had add the honor of meeting each other here!

There has been some discussion about
Theresa Croes-Fernandes Pedra not prosecuting anyone in MEP. Maybe the tides are going to turn on Aruba.

Mornin' Klaas, I see you're logged on.  I've been searching the threads for the avatar you made the other night with the baby on it.  I thought I saved it that night but I can't find it anywhere on my PC.  Could you please post it again for me?  TIA

Thanks, Robots,

Not sure if the dogs would get into maple syrup or not.  It is expensive here, like liquid gold, the real stuff.  Will try the grits first and see what happens.

Indy,
How is that grandbaby doing?  She is a right good sized young lady, no low birth weight there!  Will be a good baby because of that, sleep through the night soon and everything.
