I&#39;ve had a number of veteran meet ups that were very special, but I think my first was my best... I went to basic after HS in &#39;85, as did a number of my friends. We managed to meet up in our home city after basic and go out to celebrate. We met up in a tiny quiet bar, downtown in a big city, and thought we&#39;d be invisible, just have a simple private get together (this was when 18yos could get beer with an active duty ID card). Nothing much going on at the time. No holiday. We were talking about our adventures in Basic, and were obviously overheard... drinks started coming and veterans our parents&#39; age came up to visit with us, ask us questions, and thank us for our service. Like you say, it gets down to your soul. We&#39;d learned to be part of a team in Basic, this encounter showed us we were also part of a new familyConniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03667481504650498976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675593427710512705.post-85693644202261005932009-12-09T19:31:24.372-08:002009-12-09T19:31:24.372-08:00Profanity in the hands of the fully aware is a potent magical tool.<br /><br />That&#39;s what I&#39;m hoping for, anyway.

Our Gods are all different and uniquely mean something else and on different levles to the individual, mine from yours, e!&#39;s from mine, and in the future maybe my childrens from everyone elses.

Awesome. <br /><br />My husband and I both tell military thank you - I have often wondered how they feel in response. So much goes unsaid in this world - I want you, each of you, to know my gratitude. (I did not read your comments as if I should not offer it, only that it gives me insight, and more compassion. Thank you.)<br /><br />There&#39;s so much that your post makes me think about, feel - but I&#39;ll leave it at this. Thank you. Not just for your service, but for your Heart. You rock, Man. <br /><br /> Blessings<br />Kim Sequoiak. sequoiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05271739754074941292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675593427710512705.post-29866798864323343262009-11-11T22:52:10.978-08:002009-11-11T22:52:10.978-08:00Joe, you are an amazing person and I&#39;m so glad to know you.

Easy with the complements, after having my picture in the paper I&#39;m getting a big head. As far as getting hired, it&#39;s not just the inmates trying to get me hired, but with the economy the way it is now, it&#39;s simply a matter of money. CDCR is firing badly needed Teachers and Med Techs so there is little hope for me at the moment, but that&#39;s not why I do my ministry, my goal is not employment, I go for those guys who need me. If I were never to get hired it wouldn&#39;t matter at all, I will never stop going.<br /><br />You can email me at josephnichter@yaahoo.com can&#39;t wait to hear what you have to say.WitchDoctorJoehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01580805637487730241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675593427710512705.post-18294162908222772452009-10-30T22:14:34.608-07:002009-10-30T22:14:34.608-07:00Hi WDJ! I was so happy to finally find your blog! I have heard a lot about you through family doing time.<br />You are a legend among the prisoners. FYI they are rallying to get you hired.

I love this. I really love your accounts both of growing up Pagan and of being a chaplain for Pagan inmates. These are both experiences most of us don&#39;t have (yet). I loved the story of your mother leaving a crystal in the glovebox! How wonderful, too, that you could help give the Pagan prisoners the celebration they needed.CrackerLilohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18176388186521154104noreply@blogger.com
