Hello all, especially you Carman. I know that Norm has posted some of his humorous stories for us to enjoy but he has a serious side as well. Norm has a son who is involved in video production and when his granddaughter was assigned by her school a project to interview a veteran she interviewed her grandfather. The result was a CD that has some sad as well as humorous stories. There is one about his experience in Ortona that is very good. Maybe Betty will transcribe it for us? I can tell you that Norm like most Veterans hate war with a vengence.

Cheers

Ah Art, I thank you for everything you said in your post here. I want you to know that any humour coming from any of you Vets who experienced war directly, that I automatically ASSUME you all hate war, because YOU, more than anyone, lived it. You KNOW whats to hate and why about it all. I hate it too because of its impact.
I hate to think of what you all brought home with you and live with because I know it changes EVERYTHING. I also know that your expriences from your own mouths are the best and wisest education the world could have. I wish the world would "listen deeper" and learn from you all.

What I would give to be able to be sitting sipping Drambuie with you and Norm, and with Catherine and Betty ... listening to your stories and thoughts about your experiences. Just to "know and get wiser" myself.

Remember as well ... YOU guys are the VOICE that my Uncle and others like him, can speak through. You speak for them too, on their behalf.

Some of us listen and actually hear you ... some of us even understand

If I don't often touch on the more "serious side and ask direct questions", its because I fear upsetting anyone, or pushing old buttons is all. I want to hear the stories and your feelings and thoughts about them, but not at the cost of up setting someone who "lived it" ... I let YOU LEAD here

No man or woman is EVER the same ... it makes people more serious and more intolerant of stupid shit.

That CD sounds like one I'd like to see.
Oh... I talk with Norm and Betty sometimes too

From the Heart,
Karmen

[JD Baillie]

Secret admirer with a kilt???

What - 1 900 Haggis?


JD

Ah ... 1 900 HAGGIS ... verra cute

MARK-O ..... what good is a lone Pixie Witch without a Verra Fine Wooing Courting Wizard in a Kilt to dream about (Oh ... be STILL me wee bittie Pixie Witch heart...I SWOON)... pore sad pathetic creature she would be indeed and would get real mean and indiscriminate with the cast iron skillet. Iffen you had any sense in yore hairy old beast mind at'all you'll be wishin' the Wee Bittie Yippy Dippy Yappy Little Miss Pixie Witch lass is NOT be dreamin ... for yore own sake. Now ponder that HBM-O iffen you be wantin' to keep yore knobbly old ankles, knees, and hairy old head PRAY that I am not dreaming for the SUN's dissapearance will shut my YAP and for then will be the time for ACTION!.. and I will no longer be content with dreaming about FRYDAY either ... less talk = more ACTION! Beware a QUIET YAPless Pixie Witch... it bodes no well for cheeky chaps such as yourself. Get yore personal lives and affairs in order!

I met my Kiltie at a Haggis Store Invited him to my bunker for some Scotch but remembered I was out of it, only have coffee, so sigh, must do a raincheck. Picture it tho, HUGE VIKING IN A KILT! I decided I also needed to stock up on frying pans, one extra large in case he REALLY upsets me, ... he has some too, and we're bound to play dueling frying pans with pipers piping in the background for ambience. WHUMP DRONE WHUMP DRONE WHUMP Sounds like fun

You are into "Thumping""..

ALEX ... I am STILL scared to open links you post for me

But Hey ... I just happen to havea photo of my Viking. He's half Scot half Viking. I deeply regret that I do NOT (as yet) have a photoof himinhisKILT. Isn't he fearsome? And oh so VERY protctive of me. He will allow no one else but himself to whump me with frying pans ( I let him believe I need his protection: as it would hurt his feelings to know I can protect myself ..... ah...just SEE him below! I do so swoon and me wee bittie Pixie Witch Heart goes pitta pat THUMPTHUMPTHUMP sigh ... imagine a shared bunker til frying pans us do part.

I've been pondering this Viking-Scot, and I tell you, Kilt or no kilt, he's too UGLY for wee bittie me ... besides which, he's much too large for my bunker and I'd have to keep him outside. I think there was something in the Haggis I ate before I looked at him. I could have SWORN he was handsome and fearsome ... but now when I look in the light of day andafterthe Haggis has left my wee bittie selfs body ... he's just downright ugly and scary :ek: Not my type at all.

I guess I'll line him up with Tugboat Annie. He'll like her and lose interest in me. If he doesn't like her, maybe he'll like that really snakey woman. What the heck's her name again??? Oh ya, MEDUSA. SHE would know how to stop him in his tracks if he gets outta line. Ya. GOOD plan! MEDUSA it is.
