Time to Give Thanks...

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I would like to start by publicly giving thanks for

- My job(s)
- The rascals on the OT
- A great country
- My health

Bless all you hooligans and scallywags!

Spent the last three days in Casablanca and Tangiers Morocco, then on to Algiers. I do not care how bad life it, these people have it worse.

The things we take for granted are unknown for most of the rest of the world.

Imperfect? Yes.

Welcome back, Joe. Rest well and happy T'Day.

Sea,

Not back yet! In Algers tonight and Saudi Arabia tomorrow. Four hours in the sandbox picking up "pax" and then on to Dubai. Arrive there at 0400 in the morning then off for two days...

Then on to wonderful India, Pak and Afgan for two days. All the garden spots around the world. Personally it would be nice to just be in a place where you can drink the tapwater, not to mention having a turkey dinner. Home on 20 December I believe but who knows. Been on TDY for 7 weeks by that time.

Anyway, there are a lot less fortunate in this world than us, so time to look at the good side.

Joe

And may I also give thanks to a Mr. Tony Romo for being the QB that the C-Boys need. The boy is a rockstar. May his passes be true and his running game strong. Here Here!!!

Here here - well said Mike!

I have some great friends, a great family, I have a good job in a great country.
On top of that, you guys make me laugh, and I have plenty of beer in the fridge and whisky on the shelf. I'll make`sure I have a drink or two to you all tomorrow!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Lube,

Glad to see Romo doing well but wish it was for someone other than Jerry Jones!

Rant off!

Seahawk,

Thanks and hope to get up there someday. Up and around this morning and have two hours to do the three "S's" the back to the airplane.

Remember what this holiday is about and give thanks for it! Thank you Lord for everything we have and thank you for watching over us!

Joe A
