I've been in my own boat sitting out in this water looking at this view. Awesome!-Sandee. This is a Tip of The Hat to Sandee, my Co-Author and blog wizard.

The Blogger's Prayer

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck, manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly - all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house and take care of my family. Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life. And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.

Treachery at it's finest

Treachery at it's finest: when I was young and a little more foolish than I should have been.many years ago I was challenged to a race by a newbe to Chanute AFB.He had just got to the base and did not know the layout of the land,where the speed traps were,I on the other hand did.The fool was bragging on how his brand new car would shut any thing down. So I took him up on the challenge. I said that the race would be on the Highway from the base at Rantoul Ill. to the town of Champain-Urbana and back to the base. I knew were all the speed traps were and he did not.Needless to say I won,the race was for title of the loser's car.He was crying so bad that I told him I would sell the car back to him for a round of drinks in the whole bar!there was about 20 of us Airman there at the time.
Morale of the story; don't let your mouth get you A## in trouble. Or no matter how bad you think you are,there is someone around the corner who is badder.

  2. True, how true. Here it is said, "Don't let your alligator mouth overload your mockingbird ass." And I have been guilty of such overload.
