My Mom died Sunday Jan 2nd. She was born in 1919 and saw 10 decades while living a full life. Her femur broke just under the hip joint Friday and she never recovered, just shutting down in two days. Dad at age 90 is not doing well withthis, Prayers, thoughs and positive smoke signals are appreciated. Bro, Moldy Joe, is coming from Afghanistan, his son from U.A.E. We'll be busy. Thanks, Gianni.

Lord, make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hand faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those that wish to harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be “If only I had my gun”; and Lord if today is truly the day that You call me home, let me die in a pile of brass.
I am out of town, enjoy your holidays.
MT Gianni,
Prayers on the way. jmsj

With regards to gun control in this country, everyone should be asking themselves one question:
What is it that this government feels they need to do, but can't do, unless the citizens of this nation are first disarmed?
(I seriously doubt you can come up with any plausible answers that you will like...)

Gianni,
My deepest condolence's to you and your family. 10 decades is a lot of living, I would loved to have sat and just listened to how things changed in her lifetime.
God Bless and prayers sent,

If I should depart this life while defending those who cannot defend themselves, then I have died the most honorable of deaths. Marc R. Murphy '2006'.
My prayers are for her, you, and yours at this time!

Thanks guys, I have a few hours today before more busy time. Murph, she went from an era where WW1 communication strategies were to shoot the carrier pigeons to phones being common in homes, TV, fax and cell phones to instant messaging. For her early years an orange was a once yearly Christmas treat to todays vast array of foods, her father never learned to drive and felt if it couldn't be done looking over the ears of a horse it didn't need doing, her son and grand-son flew in from UAE, & Afghanistan in a number of hours. Some big changes she lived through.

John, I was saddened to read this. Know that you and yours will be in our thoughts and prayers.
I don't paint bullets. I like Black Rifle Coffee. Sacred cows are always fair game. California is to the United States what Syria is to Russia and North Korea is to China/South Korea/Japan--a Hermit Kingdom detached from the real world and led by delusional maniacs, an economic and social basket case sustained by "foreign" aid so as to not lose military bases.
Sorry to hear that your mom passed, may God bless you and yours.
