If he'd quit trying to drag me away I might get to say something! I won't be able to tell any Bull stories here now. But when I get to my next duty station I'll log back in and tell you a few.

I'm passing through. I'm on my way to my next assignment. Far's wife is making us a home for three days while we travel. Duty Station is where I'm going to.

I was wondering how I quote.

Peg, Far tells me you throw championship darts. I'd like to see that one day!

Far and I were on a forum a few years back and posting his pic got him in a peck of trouble. So knowing him as well as I do, he's not taking any chances. I have one I think he will let me post.

I need to go we're heading out to have some fun. Good to meet you.

A big welcome from New Mexico..........

We all think a lot of Far

The painting is of Chance Phelps...........

Great story here:

Taking Chance Home

The following is Marine Lieutenant Colonel Strobl's account of escorting the remains of Lance Corporal Chance Phelps. It's a long and beautifully written and it deserves to be read in it's entirety. It's about Valor, Honor and Respect. Thanks to Jarhead Dad for sending it to me.

Okay. Here's the scoop.

After you open FG, google 'tinypic.com' and minimize it.

When you wish to insert something into your post, maximize 'tinypic' and hit Browse and choose your picture.

Open the picture.

Hit 'HOST picture'.

Wait and magically it will jump in and when you scroll down it will be there next to the IMG wording (third one down).

Highlight the IMG wording.

Right click on the picture next to it and "Copy"

Minimize 'tinypic' and go back to your post and right click and post it in.

Try it and you will find it ever so easy.

Good Luck.
