Holy Crap! I don't want to be designated a "Newbie". I'd better get busy adding more posts. Gotta bring that brown bar more over toward the right side.
Well, I just got off the phone with a long time very good friend of mine (an 11th Corps bro), telling him about these Corps threads. I told him it was good, because it wasn't a bunch of moaning about how evil TWI was/is, but about all of us who spent good times together, and reconnecting with people we miss. I think we're all aware by now of a lot of the bad stuff. Maybe after 25 years, some still need to rehash it. I don't. I'm 53 now, and some could bash me for being sentimental, but I look back with great fondness on those times. I remember the good stuff.
I may have been one of those invisible people that nobody else remembers, but I remember you (almost everybody), and I'm so thankful to God for all of my 9th Corps family. OK, maybe I'm still bent and haven't gotten straightened out yet, but I remember you as being my dearest family.
That 1st page on this thread reminded me of a lot of the ridiculous stuff that happened while we were there. BF and the ice cream bowl, makes me wanna cry (just kidding). I was at work when I read that stuff today, and I was laughing so hard - I knew those in the cubicles around me were considering a straightjacket. You know that laugh when you're trying to suppress the noise, so you laugh through your nose? Yeah, that one.
OOOOK, that's enough for now. Gotta save some for the next 16,000 posts so I can catch up with Kansas and fellowsneezer and lifted and excathedra, etc.
