So, at last night's American Legion meeting we discussed Poppy Day... I got ganged up on. They said that because I am the person who always brings in the most money for Poppy Day I should be in charge of this years Poppy Day event. Swell. Just what I need. I hate being in charge of things. It's much easier to just lurk in the shadows and do you part. I think what I'm going to hate more than anything else is counting all of that loose change we seem to gather up on Poppy Day. Maybe instead of counting up all of that loose change I'll just throw it into my change bucket and write the post a big check. The currency all get crumpled up and you have to almost iron it before you can count it too. Oh well... I shall do my duty and do it to the best of my ability. Anybody want a Poppy?

Get yourself one of those coin sorter with the paper, machines.
They cost 6.97 at Wal Mart.
Motorized Coin Sorter - Walmart.com
Me and Hubby got one when we were in charge of Poppy Day at the VFW for five years.
It saves a lot of time and headaches.
If you need help on any good hints at how to run things smoothly just PM Me BBD.

Spring has sprung and it's time for me to make my annual appeal to all yinz Coffee Shoppers to buy a new American flag for the summer season.
Nothing looks disrespectful, not to mention shabby, than an old, faded, torn and thread worn American flag. I'm absolutely certain that we all proudly fly the flag at our homes, and possibly our businesses. Flying a bright new flag shows our flag the respect it deserves. And it's easy to do! Here's a link to the American Legion Emblem website American Legion Flag & Emblem where indoor, outdoor and state flags are offered at most reasonable prices. Plus, they are ALL AMERICAN MADE! No Chinese-made American flags please. We still make great things right here in the states.
The American Legion gratefully accepted my old flag and they disposed of it properly and respectfully at a flag disposal ceremony.
So three cheers for the red white and blue! Fly a nice looking American flag from your front porch, deck or patio.

Did I forget to mention that we discovered some old cells in the basement of city hall and the guys decided to elect BBD as Commander and move him into one of the cells...Pretty good deal, free rent and all that....

We did have our elections last night but being the quick thinker on my feet that I am, I suggested that the folks we had in office had all did a great job the previous year and I made the motion that we re-elect them all into the current posts that they were filling. There was a second and then the vote. Wouldn't you know it, our elections were all over with in just about 10 minutes. I escaped again!

Truth is we had nominations last month while i was getting discharged from the hospital. And last nights vote took all of about 2 minutes. Yes I'll be Commander for one more year at least...... Now I need to get the Consolidated Post report Done....Again...
Glad to see my old pard, 007 back on board. Missed you dude.

Thanks, my friend. I missed my chats with you and the good folks here as well.
I guess the place has grown on us all, whether we realize it or admit it. It's a pretty close knit bunch here, and we sure seem to have enjoyed each other's virtual company.
If ever the was a week that deserved a thank gor its friday that would be this one.
On a positive note, today is our 27th anniversary

Hey [MENTION=18645]Sarah G[/MENTION]
There is this new invention called "Air Conditioning", it is like the opposite of "heating". You install this device called an "air conditioner" on your house and it cools the house to whatever temperature you find comfortable. It runs on simple electricity, just like most of your household appliances.
