  • Look what I won in an auction

    It cost me $130 but it went to Coalition to Salute America's Heroes. It's the 13 hours book signed by the remaining contractors and Ambassador Steven's challenge coin. I will admit, holding that coin gives me a cold chill.

        That's awesome, man! I totally get it with regards to the challenge coin too.

          I have been coined by men who aren't here any longer and some who died a pretty bad death but his was completely unnecessary and an example of one of ours being expended due to politics. It's like holding something that marks a promise and seeing that promise unfulfilled and betrayed if that makes any sense.

          As a soldier, I don't know. I'm torn. I spent a good 20 minutes just looking at the coin alone and I'm going to read the book but on the other hand, I really, really don't like that coin. It feels..... wrong.

                I can totally see that. I would also look at it for what it truly is...a challenge, from him, to work to keep what happened to him from happening to anyone else. Or, at the very least, to keep the faith.

                  Good point. It's going on my shelf next to my autograph from President Bush.

                        There was some really neat stuff that was up for auction. The wife works for them and I will admit to spending a lot of time looking at what they had on auction and I got into a bidding war with her boss. Last year I got beat by her boss and she mailed me a hat signed by over a dozen NASCAR racers that I was bidding on.

                          I was hoping that it would be a black girl in her late teens.

                            Use the cold of that coin to help curb flames of passion that might otherwise burn out of control.

                              Damn. That's deep. I'm taking it with me to DC for the inauguration.
