Aw, shucks. I CAN'T BELIEVE I HIJACKED ONE OF BOB LUSK'S POSTS!

Thanks to everyone, your support means everything to a soldier, sailor, Marine, or airman. I'll still get on the board whenever I can get to a computer. I'm going to be a basecamp Deputy Mayor in Baghdad, so I was looking forward to fishing in Sadaam's stocked ponds, until I learned they aren't stocked anymore.

To unhijack the post, I really do wish that we could make the conference. I've been to several oilfield conferences, and been just slightly involved in coordinating a couple, and I can tell you that for the kind of facilities we are getting, we are getting a pretty good deal. And the Big Cedar Lodge is a beautiful place to be.

Shawn -- this is one of the "good" hijacks. Do us all a favor, and take good care of yourself!

Sure wish I would have been in the office when you stopped!

Shawn good luck . My brother at 39 and in the Guard in 91 went to the real sand box - Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. He was not real impressed. But then at 54 he was sent with the Guard to Iraq once for 14 mths. Now at 57 he is in lovely Afghanistan at 7000' and 0 F for 12 mths. Lets hope the third time is a charm.

Shawn,

Same here keep your head up and always be alert.

Ah the guard days! 86 - 92. I was lucky. Our unit missed being deployed to the sand box by 20 minutes as Desert Storm ended early! Our F-4's were going to use their lazer pods to guide bombs I believe for the F-16's which the unit has now.

I heard the guys in the motorpool a couple years ago ended up riding lead armed vehicles in convoys even though they are ANG and grease monkeys.

Gee Eric sounds like your brother gets all the fun in the family.

Sorry Bob!

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

I don't think Bob will mind a hijack like this Shawn. Your service to our country is greatly appreciated.
