“Tommy…HOME…for the HOLIDAYS…”
“When you ring the DOOR BELL…after MIDNIGHT…and you want .. for ME… to open the “DOOR” – – I will wring your NECK… just check with TOM – – see if I did a good job of ringing his NECK??
The above old PHOTO …sure does look like I am doing the best job of ringing TOM’s NECK… even looks like a drop or two of blood…even the eyes look… as if he is not receiving enough blood to the BRAIN.
Sure looks as if …I am enjoying this painful situation…nothing like having lots of FUN…when your brothers receive their “LEAVE” so they can come HOME for the HOLIDAYS!
It is surprising that “HOLLYWOOD” did not make a big STAR out of TOM…when he was in the “BUILDING”…since ELVIS… left the BUILDING …as TOM would keep your attention…for HOURS…and you would be dying…since you were laughing so hard…and in stitches with the tears of laughter just running down your cheeks! He just knew so many funny things to say about so much…never needed for someone to write any scripts for him…some people just have a natural tendency to seeing to it…that everyone is having a good time a time that you won’t soon forget…and you will be back for more FUN and ENJOYMENT…and everyone knows…LAUGHTER is.. GOOD MEDICINE!
“Sure do hope that all of our young men and women…that serve in AMERICA’s ARMED FORCES…have “LEAVE” to come HOME for the HOLIDAYS!”

“November VETERAN…Thomas…”
Our FAMILY… has another VETERAN…my younger brother, Thomas F. McClarren…When you stop to think about the branch of service …that Tom selected to be in… at that time…I always wondered…why does a very smart man train to get into AIRPLANES… then decides to just jump out of a perfectly good AIRPLANE??? To me…just thinking about jumping out of an AIRPLANE…well…. I am a scared-y-cat! That is something …I could not do…not even for a million dollars!
In this month of NOVEMBER – -my main thoughts …are for all of us to remember our FAMILY and FRIENDS…especially those that have join the branch of service – – – that they selected to act as the “GUARDIANS” that seek to protect others…so that all of us can LIVE… in a peaceful society – – with LOVE and respect for all of our fellow men and women – – because…we need each of our neighbors in this world – – or else…why be here…if we cannot show LOVE and COMPASSION for our neighbors???
When…you are here on earth for awhile…like me – – you sometimes begin to wonder…why are we all on such a fast “rat-race” to no where??? There are a few important things to remember… LOVE of our neighbors…it will get you where you really want to be…because to show LOVE to others…you must first have LOVE in your “HEART”…because only that which you let live in your HEART…will show itself…and if…it is not LOVE…well. you know the opposite is hate…and Hate comes in so many ways…that sometimes the “HATE in the HEART”…will start to kill the owner of that sick HEART!
Let us all show that we have control of ourselves…and start with our own HEARTS…letting only LOVE…true LOVE enter in… so we can be winners with our neighbors. A PRAYER…said at all times…when we have negative thoughts…will surely turn our hearts into the HEART that we want to share with all of our LOVE ONES…especially… all those who gave their LIVES…so that we have so much NOW to be GRATEFUL…for – today and forever!
