Yes the drawing is good, but the line is incredibly lame.BTW the characters look pretty much the same, but they have different names from day to day – I could get into this more if the characters names remained the same and we delve into their lives to learn more about them. Orrrrr maybe the whole things is just B.S.

Looks like I’m the only one whose first thought was the Semaphore version of ‘Wuthering Heights’. When I went to look for a video of it, I found this from The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain – “Wuthering Heights”.I highly recommend them. They do a particularly nice job ot the theme from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly and the theme from Shaft, both linked in the stuff on the right side of the page.
To LinguistI know, I know. I didn’t want to frighten him away.Oh and don’t forget.You also have a Texas Trooper here.Thats me.Go to TXDPS main website. Look under Recruiting. Look for Hurst Texas. Yep sir. There I am.I post on my personal computer with me. My Agency has so many firewalls, debuggers, online checkers (what is that he is looking at?) so I have my own WINDOW TO THE WORLD.They dont mind that.
Is the Irish Rover a scoop or a schooner?One long mast or several shorter ones to catch the gales?Got 90 feet to waterline. Great for making way.Did the first mate get drunk and break into the Captains bunk. Then eat up all the corn?Let me go home. This is the worst trip I ever been on.Hoist the John B sail. See how the main sail sets.Never would believe that I was in the ARMY.
To all in the HoodMongo gone. I will not make the Tiki tonight.LONG LIVE MONGO.The beans will bring alittle comfort.To LinguistGalleon? Cooooool!May your sails stay full and wind at your back.Which direction Captain?Oh that a way towards that bright star and on to sunrise.Goodbye Mongo.Journey well.
I will truly miss Alex, as an athlete, actor, commentator, and as a genuinely nice human being. His wit, honesty, and love of life, was taken away too soon, with the onset of dementia. May he be at peace.
Glad to be there Sheriff. Always got your back.I know I know the front is better.But I’ve always been a back man.It is what attracted me to my wife.She looked sooooooo good in dos jeans.Ask anyone who knows me I love the Rap SongBaby got Back.Will dance liked a crazed white boy to that song.And it is not pretty.To LinguistMMMMMMMM! Donuts.And a gun range with real guns. OMGWill give a look into.Been on for 32 years. Old hand. Keep the young’uns in check. “Calm down boys Calm down. Just wait he will get tired of being Tasered.”To carry it I had to ride it.Got a lighting bolt pin for it.Liked it better than pepper spray.It only lasted 5 seconds. 5 LONG SECONDS.And with hernia surgery fixed by steel mesh below the belt line?Shocked in places I did not know could be that bad.Afterwards.The endomorphins kicked in.Got to feeling sooooo good. Wanted to do it again.They just told me to go sit down old one. Was 59 when I got it. Oldest one in the Department to have it done.Kids do not do that at home.
I loved that show.Noticed the clothing.Mod stuff from London. Fashion Capital at the time.Had my own Nehru Jacket. Dark green of courseBright color blue bell bottom pants and a vertical blue and white striped wide collar shirt.And of course platform shoes.That was the photo of me and the career guidance counselor in my year book 1971.Boy did I need guidance.Later in 71 it turned to OD green then camo back to OD finally sent home with a thank you and a serious attitude problem.But got that all Fixed.Still dress in the blue pants and vertical striped blue and white shirt. Left off the platform shoes. Have to be careful of loosing balance.That part will never leave.Still a MOD.

Oh and while I am picking on the Navy.When I won the Draft Lottery in 71 I along with a mutlitude of the now soon to be cannon fodder flowed our way from the Student Union building on U of Maryland campus towards our fate.Down the mall towards the main highway cutting through the campus we trudged.We stopped at the highway. Behind us freedom, home cooking, classes in pottery making, philosophy, safety.Across the road layed the sharks, bottom feeders waiting for the fresh meat. RECRUITERS Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force, even………MARINES.All walking back and forth licking their lips in the feast to come.One by one we made our break like crazed wildebeasts darting between the cars suddenly grabbed up and pulled apart by the clutches of our predators.Some of us……….waited for the crossing light and crossed at the crosswalk.Only too to be grabbed up by THEM!I was spared the grabbing and tearing. I showed them by showing that I was a verile male, confident, strong, proud, and above all………….ducked and covered dodging them at all costs. Tossing others to their fate shouting “Take him not me!”The feeding had subsided so I could now window shop. I knew better than ever to go near the Marines. I honor them but I have a brain and can think. (Had a Marine General tell that that thinking was not in the best interest of a Marine.True story)I wanted to fly, planes, anything aircraft, the joy of flight.Went to the Air Force. “Nope not taking applicants.”Coast Guard. “WHAT?”Navy. “No flight stuff but what about NUCLEAR ENGINE TECHNICIAN.” Fancy huh? Submarine. Under water for months, cramped quarters, share bunks? I said “What about the Thresher? You know the one that sunk with all hands and you cant find it?” Navy response “NUCLEAR ENGINES! C’mon.”Then I remembered a story from my dad who was a seaman. He said beware of the Navy. If you join you have to serve time in the “BARREL” I went what? He explained. I wanted nothing to do with that.Went to the Army. “Of course, my son he droned. Welcome and yes we will let you fly.”Damn bastard lied. Sent me to Nam. Yeah I got fly WHILE BEING SHOT AT!!!!!!But all in all. I still got to fly.
Veteran…. I know Sheriff MonkeyBlues sometimes needs a monkeyspeak translator…. but it’s partly his Texmonkan accent. which shouldn’t be strange to you. LOLHe’s trying to tell you that, though he has moved away, you’re both from the same fairly small place!Teh innerwebs is amazing.Now, if somebody here tells me he or she went to junior high on Wheelus Air Force base, or graduated from Madison Central High….. I’ll be completely flabbergasted….

I’m pretty sure that a flag with a red X on a yellow background means “Cancel the Yellow Fever Warning”.Not sure about the tassels.
SusanSunshine Premium Member over 11 years ago
Meanwhile, here we have another wonderfully accepting and enthusiastic Ballard St. couple.Not “Howard, put down that silly flag!” or “Howard, you’re supposed to be mowing the back yard.”No worries about acting his age or what the neighbors think.Just a genial acknowledgement of his activity … which he happily pursues with no thought of looking ridiculous.
