Want to support our troops?
Heres a place for you to visit. It’s a great project that helps injured veterans gain access to computers.
Blackfive has the details. It looks like a friendly interservice competition to see who can raise the most money. I would have enrolled IMAO on the Army side – GO ARMY!! – but I know that Harvey worked in this cruise line called the Navy.
So, regardless of service affiliation, go and give money.
UPDATE: This is an appeal to all Army Dawgs. The Navy – yes, the NAVY – is kicking our butt in this fundraiser. What’s next? The sky turning red? Cats chasing dogs? Michael Moore selling an Ab exerciser? Give!!! and then give some more.
Seriously – as long as you give it doesn’t matter what branch of service you back.
Go ARMY!!

Some of you know that I write a lot of 100 word stories at a site called 100 Words Or Les Nessman. The small group of “House Writers” post up stories based on a daily theme, and they rotate theme-selection duties.

Visitors are welcome to post their own 100 word stories in the comments. Sort of like an Iron Chef kind of thing, only that people in the audience will sometimes reach into their purses for their hibachis and starter ingredients.

Anyway, today’s theme is of some concern:

Everybody loves them, or is that hates them, or whatever.

Without referencing ANY of the Planet of the Apes movies, my son wonders what would happen if the world was ruled by monkeys?

Monkeys? Ruling the world?

You won’t let that happen, Frank, right? No nasty, smelly monkeys are going to take over the world on your watch?

I really don’t want to start sucking my thumb again. My wife threw out the old sucky-thumb-stopping oven mitt and I don’t want to ruin another one because I’m scared that monkeys will take over the world.

I’d… I’d… I’d rather see the world ruled by Democrats and liberls before monkeys.

You’ve got a plan for stopping that too, Frank?

Frank?
