My friend Tommy in Nam

My friend Tommy and myself last year

Paulie, I would be honored to have you as a bodyguard, but there is no way they can keep this Veteran out of that cemetery. Remember when Obama closed the Veterans memorials. He is not even close to being a Vet. The Vets there, many WW2 Vets just kicked down the barricades and went in. No...

Paulie my good Buddy. When you get to my age lets see if you are in the shape I am in. I have the body of a God. :eek2:

My friend Sue, (Tommy's wife) were planning on going to the Military cemetery to place wreaths on the graves of Veterans on Dec 19th. We had reservations to go with a bunch of other people and Veteran organizations. We got a call yesterday that it is cancelled because of Covid unless you are...

This morning I changed more water than I ever changed in my life. I thought I collected 40 gallons from the surf yesterday but it was actually 50 gallons. I heated it up real fast, after I diatom filtered all the chopped up seaweed in it. My tank is 125 gallons but it has a lot of rock and...

After I went to buy some sneakers and when I came home I put something big on my workbench. It hit my fire extinguisher which fell to my steel workbench, on the handle of course and the thing let loose. My entire room, including me was full of white powder. I couldn't see or breathe and had to...

This morning I wanted to buy a new pair of sneakers so I called "New Balance" which has an outlet near here. They make some of their shoes in America and I will only buy American shoes. They also have a 40% off sale. So I call them to make sure they have the US shoes, They do not, and I have...

It was cold and very windy. I had to keep moving the car forward as the tide was coming up. Do you see the thing on the piece of wood to the left of my car? That is the power supply for the pump I have in the surf pumping the water into the car. I forgot it there and didn't notice until I got...

I collected 40 gallons of water just now. Because I take it from the surf, it is filthy. Filled with chopped up seaweed and you can hardly see through it so I am diatom filtering it and warming it up. It is 55 degrees.

Diana thats a Hawkfish. There are a few types.

I think these guys are spawning. I haven't seen eggs but she seems pregnant to me.

I have a beautiful pair of 6 Lines and I "think" they are spawning but they move so fast I can barely get a picture of one of them.

I know he is. I am soooo glad I retired and don't have to do any of that "W" thing any more (work) :)

Someone on another forum asked me to post the link to this battle I was in and I figured I would also put it here for any War Buffs. I posted the link to this battle a few times. It was the worst day of my life but thank God for PTSD as I remember very little of that night. Firebase...

Thanks Mickey. I think I like what the Police told me. Just do it and don't say anything. I am sure submitting that form will open up a can of worms and being they don't know what they are doing, it won't turn out well. I am 71 years old, what can they do? Throw me in Jail! :huh:

My wife has MS and can't mover her right leg any more at all so I won't let her drive. I got her a new car with the condition that I can install hand controls. I got the hand controls and tried them out on my car. It is basically two tubes, one goes to the gas and the other one to the brake...

Diana, Like you I consider myself a Patriot. I also try very hard to only buy American. Last week I went to 5 or 6 places to get American tires on my car. That isn't easy because tires don't say where they are from and it is all in the serial numbers. I also wouldn't buy a foreign car...

Today on Veterans Day I went to the Military cemetery where my friend Tommy is buried to place a couple of American Flags on his grave and pay my respects. I was there a while as I broke down. Tommy was one of my best friends for over fifty years.

I like them and I would take them. They look good from here.
