   lol all that dirt and dust makes you wonder what the hell they've been fighting about for  the last 3000 years  . unless it was to see whom wound up with it  . because they have been fighting over that dirt long before oil was a commodity .

X2 looks like there's enough sand for everybody

Yep, enough sand to keep us in beer n coke bottles for many yrs to come.  ;D
U know out of 150 views, 12 replies, probly 3-4 views per person making the posts, leaving nearly 100 views from who knows. I guess the extra views r from liberalistic, ala lovin, islamic, tree hugin, bunny humpers who dont support of vets or soldiers.
From 1 vet, to all the others, past n present n tobthe present n future soldiers, THANK YOU!!!!

   YES SIR !!  you have to remind people these days that the reason they are able to go to the lake get drunk and b.b.q. on memorial day is due to a lot of veterans sacrificing their lives from the 1700's to the present day and on into the future if there is one when the democrats get thru with us  .

Happy Memorial Day and thank you all! We wouldn't be here with out you.

A big thanks to all who serve and have served ,god bless y'all

Guess I didn't flat out say thanks to you veterans I think the biggest decisions I'll regret are the ones that kept me out of the army

I am loving the land of the free and home of the brave ! I thank ALL that made it so!
