A wee bit of scottish humor Ye Cana Fool a Scottish Caddy !




During his golfing vacation at Martha's    Vineyard - President Obama
had been slicing off the tee on every hole.

He asked his Scottish caddy if he had noticed any obvious reasons
for his poor tee shots, to which the caddy replied:

"Aye, there's a    piece of shyt on the end of yer driver. "
The President picked up his driver and    cleaned the club face, at
which point the caddy said:

"No, the other    end




...Lesson from my dogs~~live life like someone left the gate open ...
TERRIFIC WAY OF    THINKING!!!!!!





The Marines ..... always faithful, always dependable, always ready, and always there for you.

AFTER FLIGHT 77 HIT THE PENTAGON ON 9/11, THE FOLLOWING HAPPENED
A chaplain, who happened to be assigned to the Pentagon, told of an
incident that happened right after Flight 77 hit the Pentagon on 9/11.

A daycare facility inside the Pentagon had many children, including
infants who were in heavy cribs. The daycare supervisor, looking at
all the children they needed to evacuate, was in a panic over what
they could do.

There were many children, mostly toddlers, as well as the infants that
would need to be taken out with the cribs. There was no time to try to
bundle them into carriers and strollers.

Just then a young Marine came running into the center and asked what
they needed. After hearing what the center director was trying to do,
he ran back out into the hallway and disappeared. The director
thought, "Well, here we are, on our own."

About 2 minutes later, that Marine returned with 40 other Marines in
tow. Each of them grabbed a crib with a child, and the rest started
gathering up toddlers.

The director and her staff then helped them take all the children out
of the center and down toward the park near the Potomac.

Once they got about 3/4 of a mile outside the building, the Marines
stopped in the park, and then did a fabulous thing - they formed a
circle with the cribs, which were quite sturdy and heavy, like the
covered wagons in the Old West.

Inside this circle of cribs, they put the toddlers, to keep them from
wandering off. Outside this circle were the 40 Marines, forming a
perimeter around the children and waiting for instructions. There they
remained until the parents could be notified and come get their
children.

The chaplain then said, "I don't think any of us saw nor heard of this
on any of the news stories of the day. It was an incredible story of
our men there.” There wasn't a dry eye in the room.

The thought of those Marines and what they did and how fast they
reacted; could we expect any less from them? It was one of the most
touching stories from the Pentagon.

It's the Military, not the politicians that ensure our right to life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It's the Military who salutes
the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by
the flag.

If you care to offer the smallest token of recognition and
appreciation for the military, please pass this on and pray for our
men and women, who have served and are currently serving our country,
and pray for those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.



 "GOD BLESS AMERICA"


"SEMPER FI"
