Articles I - VI

Army

Cape Kennedy

This is what I grew up with for space travel. We would vacationed in Florida and I went to Cape Kennedy before it was Cape Canaveral. I have a very old and bad Polaroid of me standing with this in the background. I don't know which one it was.  But my love of space has always been with me; born I believe from my mother's interest in space. I love the night sky with all the stars alive and shinning.

Animal House

What can be said about this? A classic.

Kemper was even offered the opportunity to have it made there. I am glad we didn't. Still, it might have been cool. And who know what would have happened, had that had happened. Would we have gotten the crap people of the last 4 administrations of Kemper? Would Kemper have survived? Would have, could have, should have....whats done is done.

Still love this movie. Always will.

Another country free

If we help we are condemned. If we don't we are condemned. I would rather help out and and been condemned than do nothing and watch bullies win. Does that make the US the world's police force?

Flag of the US

To me there is no prettier flag than that of the United States. The history behind it. I hold it in very high regards.

And men and women who I respect, love and honor, also feel the same way I do.

America

Have we forgotten what we had to do to be free of England's tyranny? That was nothing to whats going on now.

America was founded

Yes.

Always say "Yes"

Yep! You never know. 

The dice never lie. 

Always be yourself

I used to get asked, when I was in my Star Trek monster maroons, who was I trying to be. No, I wasn't Kirk; I was just me.

All you can do is laugh

Been to that point? I've bee there so long. That's why I always have a smile on my face.  What else can you do?

Romantic old fashioned date

I was raised with that old-fashion thinking. But at the time, girls and then women, still thought that even a goodnight kiss would lead to something. Or at least that how it seemed to me. If I go out any more, I'm not even thinking that. I'd just like there to be a second date

Alignment Chart - Star Trek

I agree that the Romulans are Lawful Evil while I would think Klingons more Chaotic Neutral or Neutral Evil. They might be Lawful Evil, but with definite Chaotic tendencies, despite their 'codes.' Just my opinion.

Aliens of Star Trek

Just a nice picture of a lot of the aliens of Star Trek. 

Aliens invade the moon

This one of those memes that you think; 

hmmmm, you know, that's right. 

Alice

No Cheshire Cat in here, but a kick-ass looking Alice. I have always liked this guy's art work. Cheesecake, sure. Still like it.

Airborne School

In my younger days, I would have done this in a heart beat. 

AIRBORNE ALL THE WAY!

Airborne!

Airborne! Gaskill probably loves this meme. 👍

US Air Force

 I love the memes about the different military branches. 

Ain't scared

I have known a few guys like that.

Hat toss

This is a great action shot.  Having thrown my hat in the year 6 different times, there is something, and the only way I can say it is, orgasmic about it.  This shot is also very nostalgic for me; I wore a yellow sash just like them. The last time I threw my hat in the air, it was the beginning of a new chapter. A new life. I thought that particular life would go on forever. I was wrong. It took a while to readjust. I miss those days and those people so much at times it hurt.

Abrams Star Wars

 I love these memes. 

He should apologize

I am not a fan of Jon Stewart and I am really not a fan of J J Abram's Star Trek. He has hurt the Trek universe in my opinion. And while I don't think it happened like this, I think its funny and so true. JJ should apologize what he has done.

About last night...

I liked this movie when it came out and I watched it a few months ago and its still funny. Decent soundtrack. Brings back the memories of the 80's.

What came you here to do?

“And now, my brethren,

What came you here to do?

When you joined our mystic circle,

Had you a purpose in your heart

To be of service to your fellow man,

And perform your allotted part?

Or came you out of curiosity

Or motives personal in view?

Tell me brother of the square,

What came you here to do?

Have you failed to grasp the meaning

Of the symbols of our chart?

Have you learned to subdue your passions

And make improvement in your art?

Do you always, always uphold the trusts

On which we firmly stand,

Teaching the Fatherhood of God

And the Brotherhood of Man?

Have you been willing to id the brother

When life surges were fierce and wild?

Have you offered cheer and comfort

To the Mason’s widow, wife and child?

If you have done so, my brother,

You are a Mason good and true,

And can give you a correct answer

What came you here to do?” 

The Masonic News

I read this on a pamphlet on the first time in my lodge when my father, a Past-Master took me to join. I have always been glad that my father and Chief saw me return my degrees.

A wolf

Enough said. 

A true leader

A dear friend loves McArthur.  I am more a Patton man, but then I also hold Audey Murphy in high regards.

A Man

I agree. 

A Knight in Shining Armor

Someone once told me:

If she needs to be rescued, shes not the one. 

If she wants to be rescued, she is really not the one. 

I got to stop looking for princesses in towers. They are there for a reason. I want the one who has escaped hers.

A Free People...

Always have been and always will be a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment. And love George Washington.
