DENISON, TX -- The new Eisenhower Memorial will soon go up in Denison. The Denison Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2773 presented a check Thursday for about a hundred thousand dollars to the memorial organizer, Doug Coleman.

The VFW has agreed to sponsor the Army flag pole and the Robert Hempkins Family of Denison has agreed to sponsor the Air Force flagpole.

Memorial Organizer Doug Coleman says it will be a landmark for Grayson County, for Denison and hopefully it'll help direct traffic downtown to the birthplace and help our economy by bringing a few more people to the area. Coleman says they are still hoping to unveil the new memorial on Ike's birthday which is October 14th.

In the video, I was the fat ass wearing the jeans and blue shirt, typically on the left.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

At last, a feels good news article.

To think one of ours is not just sitting about complaining about life but is taking things in their own hands, my highest respect for you----but that does not mean I won't debate with you.    :tongue:

I have put on too much weight, though.......  :(

The camera always adds 15 lbs.

Especially if you eat the camera, you fat ****!

OK this old lady checked you out.

Perhaps I am odd but I like a bit of weight on a man, you do look much younger then I imagined and have that look of " bring it on buddy" to you.

Darn if I were 20 years younger I would give you more then one look over.
