To all who shall see this presents greetings...Joeseph P. Cary and I were discussing a couple of months ago how to post pistures and I couldn't get it to work I was frustrated nothing would work. Low and behold this old jarhead knows how to do this finally...!!!

Here is my Recruit Training picture from Parris Island South Carolina. I was 21 years old and weighed in at 135 pounds. Six foot talk and as proud as could be.

I don't want anybody to be scared of this. It is good for scaring rats and mice away so print it out and put it whereever the vermin are...

Will anybody else post there pictures????

I can see by the lack of responses that no one else but me and Ed Palmer have the intestinal fortitude to post their mugs for all to see. The good, the bad, and the ugly are not descrimanted against here. You bunch of panty waistes.

Here you go....TRICK OR TRICK!!!!!!

Political correctness is taking its toll on Halloween. Consider some old Halloween activities, for example:


Witch burning -- Just singe one around the edges today and the ERA types will be on you like stink on ----. What 30 centuries of white male authors used to call witches, are today respected as complexion-impaired, wardrobe-challenged wome... uh, womyn.
Window waxing -- These days you'll only set off the light-, noise-, motion-, and aroma-sensitive burglar alarm, and quickly exit in cuffs and revolving lights -- if you're lucky enough not to leave prime filet of leg with the neighborhood rottweiler.
Trick-or-treating -- This obviously would be prosecuted as a violation of federal RICO [racketeering] statutes, except that most of the perpetrators are juveniles, and thus have the civil right to thumb their noses at the law and be back on the street before the candy runs out.


And then there are the treats themselves:

Candy should be dispensed only with balancing doses of Ritalin, soft- bristle toothbrushes and an effective (but fluoride-free) dentifrice.
Apples should be organic, Alar-free, union-packed, washed in genuine American Zephyrhills water, and X-rayed before being handed out. Any worms should be housed, fed, read their rights, then returned to their native soil, or, if they so choose, given refugee status in yours.


Certain traditional Halloween games are not politically correct:

That icky old "autopsy" game in which you blindfold little kids and tell them a plate of spaghetti is guts and a bowl of peeled grapes is eyeballs will cost you your homeowners insurance because of the choking hazard, and due to the risk of suits for emotional damage.
Pin the tail on the donkey, with a real pin? Uh uh, cruelty to animals or their depiction is a no-no.
Bobbing for apples is permitted, as long as there's an equal (and not separate) opportunity to jane for them, too.
Jill-o'-lanterns are encouraged, after 1997 they will be mandatory.


And, finally, costumes:

Ghosts are out of date. Casper is clearly a dead, white male, probably European, and full of hot air to boot.
Fairy princess costumes might offend both gays and feminists.
Frankenstein monster costumes will offend transplant recipients, not to mention employment-producing neck-bolt manufacturers.
Dracula outfits will bring stern warning letters from the Transylvanian consulate.
Those neat masks with jaws rotted away, eyes bulging on distended optic stalks and massive, oozing wounds will get you in trouble with lawyers who specialize in representing accident victims on contingency bases. Which is to say, all of them.
A cowperson? Perhaps, but don't pack a gun. And don't even think about punching a cow.


So there you are. The scariest thing about Halloween these days is that you're not allowed to offend or scare anyone. And if someone scares you, you can't scream. In some communities, any auditory emissions over 75 decibels is a zoning violation punishable by a fine and/or jail term. Whether you can react instead with a sullen but non-denominational moment of silence will be considered later this term by the Supreme Court. Until then, do so at your own risk.

jgorosco,

I hope that you can figure it out. What I did I edited the picture with Windows picture editor (WXP) has it imbedded in it. Got to resize and according to Shaffer the size can't be any larger than 400x300. Although I've seen some posted on this page to be almost a entire page. At least you are trying. HOW about it out there? Anybody reading this thread...??? We have a Mustang Capain that posted, I couldn't get jo_beth to post yet maybe she still will...??? Anybody need any help to do this? I think that there is a help file somewhere on here. I want to thank the participants that have managed to put their mugs up here.

He's a good boy, just mischevious...I dont know where he gets that from, probably his mother.

LOL! That's great, sir. Some black boots and some minor camo on the ears, he would be just a blade of grass.

captken
11-07-05, 02:59 PM
I forgot to say that's my grandson. He got the boots from his parents for his birthday and the cammies from Grandma and Grandpa. They matched the new standards for boots by accident.

The kid's got the mentality for it too. He is totally gung ho! He was mad as @#$^ when his Mom made him put on a reflective vest to go trick or treating. His reaction was, "Mom, don't you know that I'm supposed to be invisible?!" Mom (our daughter) let it be known in no uncertain terms that there is a time to be invisible and a time to be visible and she also let him know that he had a VERY short chain of command...son>Mom>end of discussion!:mad:
