I live about 1 hour away and won't be there this year. Pity, I went to see old friends and share some war stories.

59 Whole people registered. Is this smaller than CI 1?

I wonder what event will take over Memorial Day weekend next year?
I see the museum has added the Wounded Warrior into the CI events, asking for volunteers to drive either to FT Campbell or FT Knox to pick up a wounded warrior and then bring them back.

I'm sure the excuse this year will be gas is too expensive and the economy still sucks. The fact that the forum is now run by control freak assholes that no one wants to associate with will be quietly ignored.
Wow...surely RacrX, RedJet, NNIAL8R, Matth3w and all the other forum five-star protected blowhard members are going? Right???? I mean they work so hard to protect these losers?? No?? <crickets>

Hey Jim! Jesse! As long as you're reading this, way to ruin a good thing guys. You've saved the internet.

Well...donations are at $28,500 and it's halfway through the campaign. My quick calculation tells me they are off by less than half of years past.

Someone should stick a foot up that sycophant Pewter's ass for being a party to costing the St Jude kids money.

Wonder on what they're going to blame the dismal turnout.

No one there will ever admit they chased everyone away.

Sad & pathetic at the same time.

Jim said last year the smaller crowds make for smaller groups which allow people to mingle better.

I about told him how full of Chit he was but decided not to waste my breath.

Going to fruit and nut land is like inviting your friends to "swim in a barrel of dicks".

If you knew the circumstances you would understand what brought me back to Ca. I hate this fkn place.

I was living in Louisiana but had to come back here cause my Father had Cancer
