You

Yes, you! I have something very important and special to say to you! Its just 2 words, but they are important and are truly heartfelt. Thank You!

Thank you for stopping by and reading as regularly as you do, for as a budding writer you have helped my craft by simply being there and inspiring me.

Thank you for commenting and leaving supportive and funny messages, for they have helped me heal from my wounds and losses.

Thank you for continuing to extend yourselves in friendship, you have made my life less isolated and happier.

But most importantly, thank you for caring. You have all been a blessings onto me, and I do thank God for you every day.

And a special thank you to all the men and women who sacrifice much to keep our country safe. You have my eternal gratitude and prayers for a safe return back home!

May your day be filled with the love of family and friends, may you experience joy in the simple moments and may your spirits be brimming with peace and harmony during this holiday season!

A few of you know that in addition to my lust for all things penguin I also have a midget thing. For those of you who are interested in a little midget humor... I give you this.

And here's a little something to share with you:




You Are The Stuffing



You're complicated and complex, yet all your pieces fit together.

People miss you if you're gone - but they're not sure why.

What Part of Thanksgiving Are You?

You ask, what part of Thanksgiving are you why the shadow on the wall. What better place to observe the clinking of dishes, laughter of family and friends, the wail and mirth of little children all giving thanks for another day. What better site to observe and give comfort to the desolate and lost and the poor and yes the hungry in the greatest nation on this planet.

And you are sweet as pie. And I love pie!

Won't you reconsider going out with a deploying soldier, perhaps a dying man... even if he is younger?

Dear Sgt Matt,
I'm very flattered for your attention. However, I highly doubt that I would meet your expectations for a fun last night out. In fact, I think you'd be rather suprised by what I would have planned... a dinner at my church. BTW, I've made a mental note that I should include a few bible verses when I send along jokes in my letters.

Please let me know as soon as you arrive.

I'm the guy who eats the last piece of pie right out of the pie plate.

Ask Oddybobo about that one :-)

Anyway, thank YOU for being brave/crazy enough to be part of the Bad Example Family :-)
