From The Past: September 19, 2005

Thanks to mom and dad, I now have my first popcorn tin of the season:

They found the popcorn tin at Meijer over the weekend. I don’t understand why it takes other stores so long to get them, if they get them at all. My favorite is the cheese flavored, but I will eat the regular after the cheese is long gone.

JROTC issued Andrew a camouflage jacket and pants for a competition they attended on Saturday.

We are not allowed to call them camouflage though – they are BDU’s (Battle Dress Uniform). Everything has a technical term, but it would be a lot easier if you could just call them what they are.

Today they brought in a rock wall for the guys to practice climbing. Andrew said he was still sore from Saturday, but he climbed the wall anyway. He’s really into this military stuff. I think the discipline is what he needs.
