Operational pause

Because every piece of legislation that will nationalize 1/6th of the economy and effect the health of every American citizen (and non-citizen) deserves a 1 A.M. Senate floor vote, we are taking a short break to pass along something that goes on day after day and which goes unnoticed, unrecognized and too often, unappreciated just the same.

That’s what we do…

The Gratitude Campaign

This has been sent to us by a few people. Attached video for the Gratitude Campaign encourages people to wear a red shirt on Friday, though we’ve also heard blue shirt on Friday as a sign of support for the troops from other sources. We need a ruling.

Our small-motor skills being what they are, we spent 15 minutes practicing the gratitude gesture in the mirror so as to not being taken wrongly and resulting in an ass-kicking by a Marine.

Barring successful execution of the gesture, we’ve found that buying a soldier or Marine a cold beer is very much appreciated as well.
