    Rick good luck this weekend. Thanks for your service to our country. :)
    Have fun with the boots. May the Mini be with you as you try to quit smoking.

    For the boots. My last time I got out, they where neon green, with white zebra stripes, and Budweiser labels on the toes. They hung so low under the power lines that if a moving van or semi truck went under them, it would slam the top of the box, and wrap them tighter and tighter! Evidently it took a month before Fort Campbell got the power company out there to cut them down! :D

    11 Years of a military career down. I will never get the last 8 Years back, but it is time to start my life over again without the chance of getting that letter no soldier wants to get.

    This time, I did the boots in Watermelon pink, with silver stripes and soles. The 1SG even complimented me on keeping the tradition alive as I shook his hand and walked out the door a free man.
