Well it appears that we made it yet another year. I would like to take this opportunity to say a few things, (I know here he goes again). I would like to thank everyone for the extremely informative posts. I have learned much on this site in 2017. I would also like to thank everyone for putting up with my dumb comments. They weren't meant with malice intent, it's just the way I am. If I offended anyone I'm sorry. I have tried to do my best to cheer people up when I sensed that they were feeling down. I have no idea what affect I had but I tried. Hopefully some of my off the wall dry humor jokes brought a smile or two. Again, I tried.
To the younger members in the group who still have children at home. My heart bleeds for you guys. I wish that I could change places with you as I have lived my life. I have witnessed many things worldwide both good and pure evil. I have had several face to face meetings with the grim reaper and somehow escaped his grasp. I accept my eventful demise and can only hope that somehow prostate cancer can become a chronic condition for our younger members.
To the very few members who are rude to other members, yes I'm a self appointed sheriff here. Let's be nice to everyone who enters our group. Please remember we all have different levels of intelligence (I'm a prime example of a low IQ member).
Finally, Lets all draw closer in 2018 and beat this BS called Prostate cancer so far away it will need a telescope to spot us. signed, First sergeant Nameless.
Oh, I almost forgot, the other day a county sheriff knocked on my door and when I opened it he handed me a letter. Inside was a restraining order signed by the devil barring me from hell. Now what?
Sorry Bob no offence meant, it was just a little joke after Nameless addressed me as Sir. Now that is totally inappropriate (but of course it was also just a joke).
Thanks for your post nameless, Your posts are brilliant and I’ve always got your sense of humour. I kept the first post you ever made as a reply on my initial diagnosis as it was motivating and a breath of fresh air. I look forward to reading many many more, my wife loved your post about the Tundra Swans you should perhaps write for a living. So put a novel on your to do list for 2018. 👍👍
Apollo123 ~ You need to quit reading my dumb jokes and start looking for a second job which will enable you to sit in the audience while all your children receive their college degrees. Have a great 2018!
I love you style and I have that same DGAF attitude since the cancer DX. I really appreciate your input and you're totally correct that on this Forum - we need to be kind as we've gone thru our own sh*t and want the newly diagnosed to feel welcome and hopeful.
Happy New Years to all. I am in Isla Mujeres, Mexico at there best all night party. At midnight all I could think was thank good I am alive. May we all be alive this time next year, and well and happy.
Well you got me this time nameless!!! I laughed out loud... again.. but also had a tear or 2 from those beautiful words that you wrote from your heart......buttt....What do I know... ha ha ha.
This ex-USAF fighter pilot (356 combat missions) got the same letter! Old Scratch just isn't up to messing with us, I guess! But as I tell everybody - my cancer isn't any wimp cancer; it's TOUGH!! I blame Agent Orange for my prostate cancer and the Veterans Administration agrees with me since they've given me 100% disability.
Remember - attitude is everything. My New Year's resolution is to stay up next Dec. 31 to watch the ball in Times Square drop on 2019. And I want all of you there with me. Y'hear now?
I called in F-4's more than more than a few times to provide a dose or two of napalm, providing my team with an escape route. Those 20mm guns didn't hurt either, thanks. I started out with E/51 LRP's, (Two tours) and spent my last tour with G/75 Rangers.
When I got to Germany, and found an apartment to rent, the landlord asked me if I was a pee-loot. It took a while, but he found out that no, I will not be able to bring things home from Turkey for him. I said, I only fix teletypes. You know what those are, I'm sure.
