"What I Did on my Christmas Vacation" by Keith Holman First I set out to do a simple addition of 3 fields which had been requested by several to appear shipmate profiles. About 1/2 way through that (a metaphor about blind squirrels trying to find a nut seems appropriate by the way :D ), th...

A moving story. I understand the throat lumps as I got a few of them myself just reading.

For reference: the story was published on December 22, 2005, Page 06, Philadelphia Daily News (PA)

That's actually quite the pieceof memorabilia for someone. I hope that it brings in lots of money for a deserving local charity. FWIW: If someone were to have a similar piece available, I really think they might do well to put it up for an auction on a wider level, maybe an eBay or similar. I believ...

Welcome, Tom.

If you want to add pictures to the pictures page, I haven't set that up (at least not yet). "It's not you, it's me" :lol:

In the meantime, email them to website@ussjamesmadison627.com and we'll get them added.

From a retired friend

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting. Well for example, the other day I went to Main Street and went to a shop on the corner of 2nd Street. I was only in there for about 5 minutes. When I came out there was a nice policeman writing out a parking ti...

I no longer remember the guy's name but there was someone from Madison who went back to MARF (Ballston Spa) for his shore rotation and he brought some of these stories with him. I was a student there at the time and recall the reactions of some of the other senior types to the stories we were being ...

Many don't have all or many of those things and they don't have the freedom to enjoy or...

Biology Test

Students in an advanced Biology class were taking their mid-term exam. It was a timed test. The last question was: "Name seven advantages of Mothers Milk." - Worth 70 points , or none at all if not completed. One student, who had partied late the night before, was hard put to think of seve...
