Elizabeth V., Jan 14, 2011, 7:20AM ESTYou're no nice! Thank you.
I haven't posted to Jack's page in quite some time.
I've been with VSE, editing tech manuals for the army, for almost a year and a half now. I'm underpaid but lucky to have a job.
We'll what happens see when the U.S. pulls out of Iraq. My prediction: Iran will move in when we move out, and I may be out of a job shortly but not for long. -
Ishbel R., Dec 3, 2010, 6:38AM ESTI may be forthright, but I hope I am NEVER rude!
(and, yes, I DID let you off lightly!) -
Ishbel R., Dec 2, 2010, 4:54AM ESTAs usual, when the British govt wanted dirty work done, they sent in the highlanders! Col Colin Mitchell was known as 'Mad' Mitch to his troops and friends. My Dad was proud to be his fellow officer.
-
Ishbel R., Dec 1, 2010, 6:02PM ESTMy Dad had some wonderful stories to tell. Sadly, he is now dead - but I have video film and audio tapes of some of his adventures AND I was there for some of them!

ʚϊɞ Carol ʚϊɞ, Aug 3, 2010, 9:07AM EDTSo very sorry for your horrific loss.

Jeff Howe, Aug 3, 2010, 5:34AM EDTSome people call you Maurice. :-)

Keith C., Jun 12, 2009, 7:53AM EDTHello John thank you for the friend request and I hope our paths will cross again here on gather. Have a great day. Keith

Elizabeth V., Apr 11, 2009, 7:00AM EDTHey, John, happy Easter to you, too. I sure wish I knew where my comment was that you thought was magnificent. I'd print it and hang it on the wall! :-)
Like so many others in Micigan, I'm unemployed now. But I can at least hope that my experience with the army's MRAP Program will help me find an opening. Unfortunately, with so many out of their long-time automotive jobs, I have them to compete with.
