============ The Morning Thread ============

Good morning all, got some great news this morning.

A good friend of mine was in a terrible car accident with a Drunk Driver monday evening. This morning she responded to her Fiance for the first time, and is breathing on her own.

Prayers have truly been answered.

Cheers to everyone having as good of a day as mine has started.

Dan

That is GREAT news. Here's to a quick full recovery!

Joe - Good luck man!!

Sounds like there is a lot of good news here so far. Nice to hear.

Double Broke buck is what I got an email for. Goes a little like this...Alex come here and earn double eBay bucks...today only....oh what was that....? You're broke? We knew that, that is why we sent the email.

Alex, I just saw that the tribute auto printing plates are inscribed too. Good luck.

Ripped one pack of tribute... Mike Minor auto... ::facepalm::

Better than my 2-pack AIC break, one Bruce Sutter relic card, one Alexi Ogando auto.

Good morning!

Glad to help out Keith! I've been burned on them damn tins, so that is awesome that all of yours looked legit! Bust away! Hope you pull one of the cards you need!

On a related note, since I logged into ustream last night, I was browsing around my dashboard, and lo and behold the Ult Sig break videos I did in 2009 were still there! Very happy about that. Those were some fun breaks I gotta say. If anyone is interested in taking a stroll down memory lane let me know I'll shoot you the links.

Morning fellas

Up early, so I can go to breakfast with some WWII and Koren Veterans as well as other Era Veterans this morning. I'm going to see if there is anything we can do for them. Myself and a few others from or UAW Local 145 Veterans Committee are going to attend. I have to admit I'm very nervous in doing this since, I'm not sure what to say to these guys.

Heading out now so I'll take to you guys later.

If I were you, I wouldn't say too much but I sure would listen alot.
These men are living history and you have an incredible opportunity.
Kudo's for all that you do with/for them.

Ok I'm back.
Dave I said that very thing when I was asked to speak. I was not prepaired but a winged it and it all worked out. I told to a few of them only. They are a very shy group for sure. But man the ones I did talk to I had to fight back tears a few times from the stories that did tell me once they got to tell me them.

Oh and I got to meet this guy and he is sharp as a tack for in his 90's

and yes he got to fly this plane. Just like he did back in the navy.

And this one is of the young gentleman that flew the plane to the Aurora airport he is only 27 years old and his a top flight instructor of all kinds of aircraft.

Ty- Very nice!

 

[wideright]

Hi Joe! Things will go fine for you. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers brother!

Much appreciated, brother! I have no doubt it will all go smooth, for some reason, my mind wanted to run wild this morning. :lol:
