350 Discs in under 22 Hours

I got George’s discs done… 350 of them in under 22 hours! I thought that was pretty good… I didn’t get any calls from Rod about the wedding tonight, so I assume that went well.

The show went fairly well tonight. No major problems worth reporting. I must admit that I am getting really bored with the show, but I will miss all the people once they’re gone tomorrow… Momma Hagel talked to me for a while tonight about my diet; She wants to have a serious conversation at a later time. I must be in some kind of big trouble!

I can’t think of anything else to report, and its late, so good night. God Bless.

Boring Shows

The CYT shows went well this morning, although I was getting really tired and bored towards the end. I came home briefly after the CYT shows to get ready for a wedding and then it was off to the wedding. I worked with Rod, giving him some more training today. He is doing tomorrow night’s wedding so I wanted to make sure that he was set to go. I think he can handle it, but I’ll probably show up just to make sure before going to CYT tomorrow night.

I started George’s duplication job tonight. It seems to be going well except that the duplicator keeps having problems grabbing discs. If the problem continues, it could make for a very long run. I need to figure out what the problem is, so it sounds like it is time for a call to Telex in the morning…

Tomorrow: Lots of cleaning, chores, feeding the duplicator, etc. Then CYT in the evening…. Good night all!

Good School Shows

The school shows today went pretty good although they were incredibly boring. After that I just did work around the house. We’ve got some more DVD orders to ship out… The NCR videos didn’t come with any chapter markers and the one that I was checking didn’t look that great… we’ll see how this one goes over… We need to figure out what is going on with airbands for next year too…

Time for bed as I have a lot do to in the morning before I head to school for CYT… Good night and God Bless!

The Final Inspection

The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.

“Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?”

The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
“No, Lord, I guess I ain’t.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can’t always be a saint.

I’ve had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I’ve been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.

But, I never took a penny,
That wasn’t mine to keep…
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I’ve wept unmanly tears.

I know I don’t deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.

If you’ve a place for me here, Lord,
It needn’t be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don’t, I’ll understand.”

There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.

“Step forward now, you soldier,
You’ve borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven’s streets,
You’ve done your time in Hell.”

~Author Unknown~

Remember, it is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us the freedom of the press.
It is the Soldier, not the poet,
who has given us the freedom of speech.
It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
who serves beneath the flag, and
whose coffin is draped by the flag,
who allows the protester to burn the flag.

Please pass and pray for our men and women currently serving our country and pray for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.
