Re: If you want a thread to die
I received this in an e-mail and found it to be VERY interesting:
For those who may not know here are a list of Chris Kyle's awards that not one Oscar can come close to ever touching.
•2 Silver Stars with Combat Valor
•5 Bronze Stars with Combat Valor
•Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal with Combat Valor ...
•2 Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medals with Combat Valor
•2 Combat Action Ribbons
•Navy Presidential Unit Citation
•Joint Meritorious Unit Award
•Navy Unit Commendation
•Navy Meritorious Unit Commendation
•Navy Good Conduct Medal with 2 Service Star
•National Defense Service Medal
•Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal
•Iraq Campaign Medal with 4 Campaign Stars
•Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal
•Global War on Terrorism Service Medal
•Sea Service Deployment Ribbon with 3 Service Stars
•Rifle Marksmanship Medal
•Pistol Marksmanship Medal
•United States Navy SEALs Insignia
Here is a description of his funeral, definitely worth reading:
Chris Kyle:
This is from a wife of one of the Navy Seals in attendance... it makes interesting, disturbing, but hardly surprising reading.
Chris Kyle became the US armed services number #1 sniper of all time. Not something he was happy about, other than the fact that in so doing, he saved a lot of lives.
Three years ago, his wife Taya asked him to leave the SEAL teams because he had a huge bounty on his head by Al Qaeda. He did and wrote the book "The American Sniper" and 100% of the proceeds from the book went to two of
the SEAL families who had lost their sons in Iraq.
That was the kind of guy Chris was. He formed a company in Dallas to train military, police and firemen, how to protect themselves in difficult situations. He also formed a foundation to work with military people suffering from PTSD. Chris was a giver not a taker. He, along with a friend and neighbor, Chad Littlefield, were murdered trying to help a young man that had served six months in Iraq and claimed to have PTSD.
Now I need to tell you about all of the blessings.
Southwest Airlines flew in any SEAL and their family from any airport to the
funeral... free of charge. The employees donated buddy passes and one lady worked for four days without much of a break to see that it happened.
Volunteers were at both airports in Dallas to drive them to the hotel.
The Marriott Hotel reduced their rates to $45 a night and cleared the hotel for only SEAL's and family.
The Midlothian, TX Police Department paid the $45 a night for each room. I would guess there were about 200 people staying at the hotel, 100 of them were SEALs.
Two large buses were chartered (an unknown donor paid the bill) to transport people to the different events and they also had a few rental cars (donated).
The police and secret service were on duty 24 hours during the stay at our hotel.
At the Kyle house, the Texas DPS parked a large motor home in front to block the view from reporters. It remained there the entire five days for the SEALs to meet in and so they could use the restroom there instead of the bathroom in the house.
Taya, their two small children and both sets of parents were staying in the home.
Only a hand full of SEALS went into the home as they had different duties and meetings were held sometimes on a hourly basis.
It was a huge coordination of many different events and security. Derek was assigned to be a Pall Bearer, to escort Chris' body when it was transferred from the Midlothian Funeral Home to the Arlington Funeral Home, and to be with Taya. A tough job. Taya seldom came out of her bedroom. The house was full with people from the church and other family members that would come each day to help. I spent one morning in a bedroom with Chris' mom and the next morning with Chad Littlefield's parents (the other man murdered with Chris). A tough job.
George W Bush and his wife Laura , met and talked to everyone on the Seal Team one on one. They went behind closed doors with Taya for quite a while. They had prayer with us all. You can tell when people were sincere and caring
Nolan Ryan sent his cooking team, a huge grill and lots of steaks,chicken and hamburgers. They set up in the front yard and fed people all day long including the 200 SEALs and their families.
The next day a local BBQ restaurant set up a buffet in front ofthe house and fed all once again. Food was plentiful and all were taken care of. The family's church kept those inside the house well fed.
Jerry Jones, the man everyone loves to hate, was a rock star. His wife and he were just making sure everyone was taken care of....Class... He donated the use of Cowboy Stadium for the services because so many wanted to attend. The charter buses transported us to the stadium on Monday at 10:30 am. Every car, bus, motorcycle was searched with bomb dogs and police. I am not sure if kooks were making threats trying to make a name for themselves or if so many SEALs in one place was a security risk, I don't know. We willingly obliged. No purses went into the stadium!
We were taken to The Legends room high up and a large buffet was available. That was for about 300 people . We were growing.A Medal of Honor recipient was there, lots of secret service and police and Sarah Palin and her husband. She looked nice, this was a very formal military service.
The service started at 1:00 pm and when we were escorted onto the field I was shocked. We heard that about 10,000 people had come to attend also. They were seated in the stadium seats behind us .
It was a beautiful and emotional service. The Bagpipe and drum corps were wonderful and the Texas A&M men's choir stood through the entire service and sang right at the end. We were all in tears.
The next day was the 200-mile procession from Midlothian, TX to Austin for burial. It was a cold, drizzly, windy day, but the people were out.
We had dozens of police motorcycles riders , freedom riders, five chartered buses and lots of cars . You had to have a pass to be in the procession and still it was huge.
Two helicopters circled the procession with snipers sitting out the side door for protection.
It was the longest funeral procession ever in the state of Texas . People were everywhere. The entire route was shut down ahead of us , the people were lined up on the side of the road the entire way.
Firemen were down on one knee, police officers were holding their hats over their hearts, children waving flags, veterans saluting as we went by.
Every bridge had fire trucks with large flags displayed from their tall ladders, people all along the entire 200 miles were standing in the cold weather. It was so heartwarming. Taya rode in the hearse with Chris' body so Derek rode the route with us. I was so grateful to have that time with him.
The service was at Texas National Cemetery. Very few are buried there and you have to apply to get in . It is like people from the Civil War, Medal of Honor winners, a few from the Alamo and all the historical people of Texas.
It was a nice service and the Freedom Riders surrounded the outside of the entire cemetery to keep the crazy church people from Kansas that protest at military funerals away from us.
Each SEAL put his Trident (metal SEAL badge) on the top of Chris' casket, one
at a time. A lot hit it in with one blow. Derek was the only one to take four taps to put his in and it was almost like he was caressing it as he did it.
Another tearful moment.
After the service Governor Rick Perry and his wife, Anita , invited us to the governor's mansion. She stood at the door, greeted each of us individually, and gave each of the SEALs a coin of Texas. She was a sincere, compassionate, and gracious hostess. We were able to tour the ground floor and then went into the garden for beverages and BBQ. So many of the Seal team guys said that after they get out they are moving to Texas.
They remarked that they had never felt so much love and hospitality. The charter buses then took the guys to the airport to catch their returning flights. Derek just now called and after a 20 hours flight he is back in his spot, in a dangerous land on the other side of the world,protecting America.
We just wanted to share with you, the events of a quite emotional,but blessed week."
To this day, no one in the White House has ever acknowledged Chris Kyle; his service, his death, his duty, his generosity, his caring, his life.
However, the President can call a sports person and congratulate him on his bravery for announcing to the world that he is gay.
He can say on national television that someone, a man who has committed a crime and was shot by police in the line of duty, would
have made him a good son.

Re: If you want a thread to die
Speaking of T-shirts, I had a memorial service for my BB&B (Delphi) T-shirt last week. It got "holier" than St. Paul, more holes than cloth. But like all things TECH, it is still of value in its tattered state. It is at the top of my vehicle wash rag stack.
We need an updated version.

Re: If you want a thread to die
This e-mail brought a tear to my eye!
A letter from the Post Office... this is absolutely the best!!
|
|
We don ' t know who replied, but there is a beautiful soul working in the dead letter office who understands LOVE.......
|
Our 14-year-old dog Abbey died last month.
The day after she passed away my 4-year-old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey.
She asked if we could write a letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her.
I told her that I thought that we could, so she dictated these words:
Dear God,
Will you please take care of my dog?
Abbey died yesterday and is with you in heaven.
I miss her very much.
I ' m happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got sick.
I hope you will play with her.
She likes to swim and play with balls.
I am sending a picture of her so when you see her you will know that she is my dog.
I really miss her.
Love, Meredith
We put the letter in an envelope with a picture of Abbey & Meredith, addressed it to God/Heaven.
We put our return address on it.
Meredith pasted several stamps on the front of the envelope because she said it would take lots of stamps to get the letter all the way to heaven.
That afternoon she dropped it into the letter box at the post office.
A few days later, she asked if God had gotten the letter yet.
I told her that I thought He had.
Yesterday, there was a package wrapped in gold paper on our front porch addressed, ' To Meredith ' in an unfamiliar hand.
Meredith opened it.
Inside was a book by Mr. Rogers called, ' When a Pet Dies. '
Taped to the inside front cover was the letter we had written to God in its opened envelope.
On the opposite page was the picture of Abbey & Meredith and this note:
Dear Meredith,
Abbey arrived safely in heaven. Having the picture was a big help and I recognized her right away.
Abbey isn ' t sick anymore.
Her spirit is here with me just like it stays in your heart.
Abbey loved being your dog.
Since we don ' t need our bodies in heaven, I don ' t have any pockets to keep your picture in so I ' m sending it back to you in this little book for you to keep and have something to remember Abbey by.
Thank you for the beautiful letter and thank your mother for helping you write it and sending it to me.
What a wonderful mother you have. I picked her especially
for you.
I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much.
By the way, I ' m easy to find.
I am wherever there is love.
Love,
God

Dogs are very special blessings in most instances (when they are cared for).
I remember "Whitey." He was one of the litter that Dad said wouldn't be much of a "squirrel" dog, but, he caught my eye. Dad had his pick, but Whitey had my eye. Then, it happened. Dad was feeding the adult dog some chicken gizzards and Whitey found one. The pups were a little young for such food, and Whitey began to act strange and make strange motions. I soon realized he was trying to breathe but something was wrong. Well, the 6 year old diagnostician determined he was choking and went to work. By God's grace I managed to dislodge the piece from Whitey's throat and he made some noise.
I told my Dad, this was my dog, "dew-claws or not!"
To summarize the rest of the story, Whitey became the best dog Dad ever took into the woods, so dedicated to the hunt he once took a dive out of the moving truck to break a leg --but still treed the squirrel and remained on the tree until Dad realized Whitey was no longer in the truck. Turning around and re-tracing the route there he was, with his broken leg dangling, still at the tree waiting for the prey to be brought down.
But, the main thing about Whitey was his constant and devoted presence in the life of a young lad growing up through some tuff times. Whitey was always that sure, quiet buddy. How could I forget his jumping astride of a water moccasin two paces ahead of me and taking the full load of venom in my place, the quiet time on the back steps when he would come up, sit beside me and give that little "body nudge" thing:D. That meant I could scratch his head and things would be better.
What a short but special 9 years, when only one thing (on this earth) never let me down.
WWDog, you will have memories when your friends have to leave you, and I'm sure those memories will be just what you need, and you will always have them.

Re: If you want a thread to die
I once read a story about a family morning the death of their dog. One member asked why dogs live so few years as compared to humans. The little girl said tha God sends people to earth to learn to love. Dogs already know how to do that so they don't have to stay as long.

Now those are some words that deserve quoting. Wise and from the heart from someone so young.
OldBlue, I certainly hope you are right but the memories will be tough on me. I take my dogs everywhere I can and they appreciate it. They get so excited when they know the whole pack is doing things together. We share just about everything. They know when something is not right with my wife or myself. They support each other when challenged. They inspire my wife and I to be closer. They are truly teachers of Love, like the little girl said.

CBS no - their choices were announced yesterday and we weren't listed. I think all of our remaining games will be on ASN. MS State will be on some ESPN channel (probably SEC Network).

Re: If you want a thread to die
I was just wondering how the name of an institution is settled (University of ________ - ______)
UC(-Berkley), -vs- UC-San Diego ......
UA -vs- UAB
UA(Ark) -vs- UA-PB ......
Is it which came first, measurement of some sort, appointed by gov. board???? obvious "flagship")
I've got a feeling it isn't just because the "fan" wants to claim the "title."
It also seems straight forward so long as our state system is concerned, but that seems to be overlooked.
Are there no consequences for ignoring published documents from the governing body?

If Bulldog freshman Javonte Woodard from Haughton is in uniform that night there'll be FOUR HAUGHTON BUCS on the field: Craft, Seets, Woodard for Tech, Prescott for Miss State. I hope Prescott has a great night, but that THREE of the Bucs go home as WINNERS!!!:) And ONE with the loss.

I would definitely like to meet you. Before games in Ruston, I'm at the TAG tent, at the ARGENT, or in the TAC keeping cool...or warm, depending on the weather. I wear a straw hat that is painted blue on the crown and it has a red band. My brother, who is normally with me wears a large brimed white hat.

Re: If you want a thread to die
Ever wonder how they did the music for The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
(with Clint Eastwood)? It is so cool to see how it was made after all
these years. Some of you may not be old enough to remember this
classic from the '60's. Turn it up nice and loud and enjoy. For
those still caught in the '60s groove -- this is the answer to how
that magnificent tune came about...Superb....wait till the guy
whistles!
