Thanks, y’all. This really means a lot to me. As of yet, I haven’t heard from Airman (it’s a VERY long flight, and he’s not exactly on the Concorde), so I don’t have a mailing address. When I get it, those who are interested may e-mail me, and I will send it along. He did say, though, that there might be a chance that communications would be suspended. Oh, and **Eve** , I have a blue star for the wallpaper on my computer at work. (Yellow ribbons are sooooo '90s. ;)) Robin ---

I met Airman Doors a year ago when we ran a half-marathon together. I was impressed by his commitment and drive. I wanted to talk for a moment about his great dignity and how lucky this country is to have somebody like him serving us all, but the fact is that I can’t. The truth of the matter is that Doors has great big floppy clown feet. It was like running next to Ronald McDonald. They just kept going “slap slap slap!” on the pavement. Great guy, floppy feet. We all have our flaws. That’s the worst I can say about him. Keep your head down. ---

Ms. Robyn, I feel better knowing Airman Doors is helping defend our country. Here’s hoping his mission in the Middle East is short and successful. Scylla, I’m surprised your remember Airman’s big floppy clown feet. IIRC, you had a better view of his back. 🙂 ---
