I did speak with Mike Wetzel yesterday.  He's hangin' tough.  I'm sure he would love to hear from any of you via phone.  I don't think he has access to email, but I also sent him an email just in case.

If you do connect, maybe let us know.

Frank Wiley

First of all--I want to wish all of you a happy Independence Day!!!  It amazes me that the Founders fought like "Cats and Dogs" over the "Declaration of Independence" wording and the final document was a big compromise.  Do we have problems?  Yes!  Will we always have problems? Yes!  It doesn't matter if you are a Government, a Business, a School, or even a Church or Synogog, or even a family, there are problems.  In a Business Meeting one time an associate said, "We have alot of problems right now."  A Senior Officer in the Company replied, "That's why we hired you--to solve them!"  Our political leaders need to find consensus.  Our separation is so Deep, I worry about our direction.  We have been through worse times.  The Civil War, The Depression, the World Wars.  We've even had a time or times where people came out and declared themselves Communists.  Not trying to disguise themselves as Socialists.  I think we are going to be ok.  God Bless America and all of you!!

Well said Frank!👏 God bless America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏👏

Spot on Frank, as we celebrate America’s birthday, we must remember that freedom was earned through courage, sacrifice, and an unwavering belief in a better future. May we always be grateful for those who served and I pray all true Americans will continue to strive to make our nation worthy of their sacrifice. Time to wake up America! Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸<>>

May you all have a Happy Independence Day, May the God who our Founders Honored with the Recognition of our Inalienable Rights given us by Him, continue to be an Abiding Influence over The Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY EVERYONE INCLUDING THOSE ACTIVELY DEFENDING THIS COUNTRY NOW.

Jim Coats

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!

Some strong words from our friends on this site.  I'm with you!  

AMERICA FIRST!

ONE FLAG.  THE STARS AND STRIPES.

ONE LOYALTY...TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

ONE LANGUAGE.  ENGLISH!

The foregoing borrowed from a speech by Teddy Roosevelt over 110 years ago regarding assimilation.

Bill RIHS

Right on Les! Great speech by Trump tonight!👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Patty Meyers (Anderson)

Happy 4th everyone!  🇺🇸  🧨  I'll be home tomorrow..  🙃

We need a "PATTON Weather Prayer" so WE can pull off the 250 Celebration. Anyone get the reference?

Frank Wiley

Yes, from the Movie.  He called for the Chaplain and when the Chaplain got there Patton told him he needed a good prayer for good weather.  The Chaplain said he wasn't sure God would want a prayer to have good weather to kill people.  Patton assured the Chaplain that because of his(Pattons) close relationship with God that it would be OK.

This is from the Kim Komando newsletter I read everyday and sometimes with total amazement. Technology advancements continue to be astounding. Anyone heard of this new technology coming in 2027?

DeWitt Bacon

Where I live in Arkansas, we are allowed to have fireworks on the Fourth of July. When we put on a show, we go all out. We recorded part of it and posted it on Facebook. I'd like to post it here, but I'm not sure how.  

Michael Kelly

DeWitt  I think if you go to Google and ask it "How do I post my own Videos on Facebook" it will give you detailed Instructions, and may even tell you how to make money off the Viewers.

So now, after watching SOCCER (World Cup)  I firmly believe that if a player goes down in agony but then is playing soon after, they should  immediately be tazed!  American Football would never be a sport if there was such Hollywood!!

Hey Gang...

I just (8:49 pm 13th) got off the phone with Michael Wetzel... he is really worried about tomorrow! He is totally defeated and really down.  I suggested he call his attorney and have her seek a restraining order against the care facility that is trying to expel him.  Don't know if that will work, but it might at least get cooler, logical brains to look into this matter.  He is really sweating it!...

MyBest,

Brad Musil

For Michael Wetzel:  If the Hospital that Mike is in is receiving Feeeral or State Funding then arguably He has the Right of Representation of a State or County Ombudsman or Patient Representative to demand that he be allowed to Stay in the Facility where he is located. They will come around and check on Michael to see if he needs anything to help him recover. He may just need to have Pain Tolerance medication, and an exercise program to help him get muscular support for his back so that eventually he can stand up for longer periods of time etc.

Now in ALL States you need a photo I.D.--------------- to re-order the "Never Ending Pasta Bowl at Olive Garden.

Welcome back to the website Mike W, we've missed you!

THE LESSON OF THE SCREW

To assemble, turn it to the RIGHT.

To disassemble, turn it to the LEFT.

Don't understand? Here's a hint.

Voters are the screwdriver.

Michael Wetzel, Good  to see you back again. Hope you are feeling better, I had a bad back for a while, it is a weight to carry and am I glad mine weht away and did not come back. Ill be praying for your releif from the pain of it. 

Brad Musil

To the Gang;

Spoke with Mike Wetzel at 7:30 this evening... I was impressed!  He really sounds better and stronger; although he admits, he doesn't like the new medicatio that he's on... causes him to be really sleepy.

He did say he met his new physical therapist and as he calls it... an absolutely perfect G.I. Jane... even down to the clothing she wears and barks orders at him like a D.I.

He is still stumbling with his words, but perhaps that is because of the medicine... just know it is troublesome to listen too, knowing we all are getting OLD.

I had begun to be a bit concerned as I'd called several times and not received a call back.  Tonight I made another attempt and glad to have him answer in person.

I asked how Carole was holding up and he said fine... but I think we all know what 'fine' means.  Let's keep trying to raise his spirits as best we are able.

MyBest, Brad

Frank Wiley

Hey Mike W.--Sorry I missed your Birthday!  I got knocked of the website for a week but Patty got me back on.  Well, belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
