You would'nt believe the shit I shot last night..... Same with me....film at 11..

I got corrected recently here with a post, regarding Captain Kangaroo, Mr. RTogers and Lee Marvin Look at UrbanLegends.com and you'll this and that and more of these there! Personally, I can picture & hear Robin W. doing this as a comedy act..

I sign up for additional " Horizon Disability Income Insurance: from "ING Employee Benefits. It's $4.74 a week..a '3-month duration plan' so,if someting was to happen I will get normal "SDI" coverage (whatever that amount is) plus an additional $800 a month.. I thought about it and decided to try it..just in case.. other than that I just gave away $4.74 a week! Oh..and skydiving, scuba diving, ultra-light & flying lessons are not excluded!

Message received. Prayers said. Gary Calhoun

Lisa, there's a new law in Ca. Anyone who recently moved..still has to pay the new fees! Your bill should be in the mail. If you don't pay it you'll have to move back! Or at least your vehicle! hahaha Psyche!

It was the 1st jump of the day. 4th of July.1997 (free jump) 2-way crewW/video with a National Champion Crew jumpers, myself..only about 25 CRW.. Transition to a side by side..I turned too hard to the right..broke away..then felt something hitting the back of my Pro-tec..THEN saw my reserve open over my head..was at 7000' decided it was clear to cut away the main..everything went okay..BUT my main landed on top of a building..I called fire dept, a a few others no-one would help get canopy down..it was a Holiday and since no-one else's life was in danger..they would not risk it!..understood. So, me and the other guy..climbed a fence with a six foot ladder..the alarms from plant started going off, and we had to climb the with this ladder up the side of this building to get my canopy down that was up there for 2 hrs. now in 90-100 degree heat! I was scared climbing the ladder with a ladder more than the 2 canopies out situation! My legs were shaking all day and was so sweaty had to change clothes including my socks! Still don't know what caused the reserve to come out! The handle did not get pulled. Still LOVE Crw whenever I get to do it! Gary Calhoun

Wow ! Yeah that I guess I do feel like I wasted some time! This older guy at work brung this in..from his wife that works at "Amgen"..everyone was passing it on. I just showed him the "Urban Legend" link! Thanks!

Kinda long..someone brung this to work. I retyped it and thought I'd share. Lee Marvin, Captain Kangaroo & Mr. Rogers Quite a few of us grew up with Captain Kangaroo as you or your children probably did. I knew nothing of his background, only that his show was both entertaining, educational and as kids, we looked forward to it with great anticipation. Captain Kangaroo turned 76 recently, which is odd, because he’s never looked at day under 76. (DOB 6/27/27) It reminded me of the following story. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Some people have been a bit offended that Lee Marvin is buried in a grave alongside 3 and 4 star generals at Arlington National Cemetery. His marker gives his name, rank (PVT.) ans service (USMC). Nothing else. Here’s a guy who was only a famous star who served his time, why the heck does he rate burial with these guys? Well, following is the amazing answer: I always liked Lee Marvin, but did not know the extent of his Corps experiences. In a time when many Hollywood stars served their country in the armed forces, often in the rear-echelon posts where they were carefully protected, only to be trotted out to perform for the cameras in war bond promotions, Lee Marvin was a genuine hero. He won the Navy Cross at Iwo Jima. There is only one higher Naval award…the Medal Of Honor. If that isn’t a surprising comment on the true character of the man, he credits his sergeant with an even greater show of bravery. Dialog from The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson: His guest was Lee Marvin. Johnny said, Lee, I’ll bet a lot of people are unaware that you were a Marine in the initial landing at Iwo Jima…and that during the course of that action you were severely wounded.” “yeah, yeah…I got shot square in the but and they gave me the Cross for securing a hot spot about halfway up Suribachi…bad thing about getting shot up on a mountain is guys getting’ shot hauling you down. But, Johnny, at Iwo I served under the bravest man I ever knew..We both got the Cross the same day, but what he did for his Cross made mine look cheap in comparison. The dumb guy actually stood up on Red Beach and directed his troops to move forward and get the hell off the beach. That sergeant and I have been lifelong friends. When they brought me off Suribachi we passed the Sergeant and he lit a smoke and passed it to me lying on my belly on the litter and said, “ Where’d they get you Lee?” Well, Bob.if you make it home before me, tell Mom to sell the outhouse! Johnny, I’m not lying..Sergeant Keeshan was the bravest man I ever knew…. Bob Keeshan…You and the world know him as Captain Kangaroo” On another note, there was this wimpy little man (who just passed away) on PBS, gentle and quite. Mr. Rogers is another one of those you would least suspect of being anything but what he now portrays to our youth. But Mr. Rogers was a US Navy Seal, combat proven in Vietnam with over 25 confirmed kills to his name. He wore a long sleeve sweater to cover the many tattoos on his forearm and his biceps. A master in small arms and a hand-to-hand combat, he was able to disarm or kill in a heartbeat. He did that away and won our hearts with his quiet wit and charm. America’s real heroes don’t flaunt what they did, they quietly go about their day to day lives, doing what they do best. They earned our respect and the freedom’s that we all enjoy.

A pirate walks into a bar with this enormous steering wheel stuck down his pants. The bartender can’t help but ask, “What’s with the steering wheel?” “ARRRRGGH,” the pirate answers, “it’s drivin’ me nuts.”
