Pirate Armada

Just checked out a site of a fellow member of the Pirate Armada The Blue Star Chronicles. Now I am ordering my legion of readers (currently 0) to stop by and check it out. I haven’t had a chance to check it out yet but am now glad I did. Damn job keeps me busy, maybe I should move to fwance?

Well the stop reminded me of something. At our last American Legion meeting the Commander showed us a picture of one of our members, Navy intel type in Iraq, with none other than Donald Rumsfeld the Secretary of Defense. That ought to give the libtards gas. He also showed us a photo of himself and another member giving his wife a blue star banner. To bad they weren’t doing that when I was in the USN cause my parents would have had two. My brother was a Combat Corpsman at the same time. Have a lot of military types in my family going back to the British in the 1800’s. That’s all I list in this post, we have found quite a few in the genealogy research.

As for the care packages, they’re great. My mom use to send them and when it arrived I would get a phone call, ‘Wilson, get your ass up here you have a care package’. The only time there were more people in the shop was payday. This was the early 80’s. One thing to remember about them is to also be creative. Once I got a Braille Playboy that was a hoot. As for packing material, use popcorn. If you can use a box big enough for this. Put a plastic bag in the box and line the bottom with 2 or 3” of popcorn. Put the rest of the stuff in there and fill with popcorn. Tie the bag off to make it as airtight as possible. It will stay eatable, hay my mom sent them from central Oklahoma to the middle of the Indian Ocean and it didn’t take log for the popcorn to disappear after I opened it.

Also ladies, send your hubby/boyfriend etc a letter and perfume it. I guarantee he will carry it in his pocket and sniff it on a regular basis, it will mean a lot. Ya he will catch some grief from his buddies, but they are just jealous.
