I've come to the conclusion you have to carefully groom your parents to get their lips buttoned when you announce you're joining the CF, preferably starting when you're age 5 or younger. If you do it right, by the time you're 18 they wouldn't dare say anything about your decisions, because...

Contratulations!! And what a great name to grow into! Best wishes to you and your family. Hawk

I put in earrings today for the first time in a month and went to visit my son. He made, and served me coffee! To counter all this girly stuff - we sat and watched the whole first season of Trailer Park Boys. Hawk

Congratulations! Raising a boy is the best thing in the world! Boys are awesome! A friend told me before mine was born - you spend the first year teaching them to walk and talk, then the next 17 years telling them to sit down and shut up! And that's the truth! Hawk

Good graphic! I'm not too worried about what the NDP has to say. They're leader reminds me of a yappie little dog - and should be dealt with with a big boot, or (more humanely) "Ah-h shaddap!!!" Hawk

I just went to the cbc site to see what their loyal followers have to say. They seem to think, at least a lot of them, that the leaked documents have to be gospel. I wish - oh never mind - I'll keep my opinions of cbc followers, including, I'm embarrassed to say, members of my own family. to...

Just heard a news-blurb on TV then confirmed on the internet - the Barefoot Bandit has been caught in the Bahamas. Hawk

Old office game, "If you haven't heard a good rumour by Wednesday, start one". Its only Monday - you're doing well!!! Hawk

Went down with my son and his girl friend yesterday to see what we could see. The kids got some good pictures - my batteries went dead. I'm going tomorrow to do some tours and see the centennial village, with fresh new batteries!!! Hawk

Forgot to say why I'm so busy: I'm getting settled in Halifax! I left Winnipeg May 18, and except that I'm still unpacking boxes, absolutely no regrets! I've always loved Nova Scotia, and regretted leaving it years ago. Now I'm back and loving every moment of it!!! Hawk

Hello, all. I should have done this awhile ago, but I've been REALLY busy! We're gathering on Facebook. There's a page on there for the 1967 Tattoo, and a bunch are chatting on my page on Facebook (Linda Hockley). Any of you not involved - come join us!!! Its so great to chat with Norma, Judy...

WOW!! Wonderful site! I'm listening to the music as I type!! Thanks Hawk

Done! Yes 65% No 35% Hawk

I'll put your e-mail address in my address book - you may as well get all the insane jokes my friends and family send, too, and I'll look for you on Facebook. When I get settled and a phone, I'll e-mail you my number. Hawk

Toni - I'm in Winnipeg for a little more than 2 weeks - moving to Halifax! My son is there (not Navy - DARN), and by next summer I'll have no family left in Manitoba, so I'm going out to be near The Kid and soon-to-be daughter-in-law. Conestoga 33, I remember all the names you mentioned! I'm...

Toni- Sorry the last message was so short - the phone rang. I forgot what I wrote in the past - the black lace panties incident? the UNTD's coming through the ironing room window? Water fights, toilet papering PO's door. I'll PM you the life details a little later - have to go to the bank. Hawk

Toni - great stories! I'd forgotten about the blackballing incident! Great times, and lasting memories! Hawk

The Chronicle Herald online has a slide show of Canadian Navy 100 Years at http://thechronicleherald.ca/ Hawk

Saw it last night. I thought it was great! Hawk
