I will leave you with a link to the article, but our governor plans to make Feb. 2 Chris Kyle Day.

How do you explain a dog named Sauer without first telling the story of a Puppy named Sig?

I don't think he's planning on doing it. I think he's already done it.

I saw this about an hour ago and it's already on my calendar replacing Ground Hog Day.

Re: February 2: Chris Kyle Day.
It's also the day that he was murdered.

Re: February 2: Chris Kyle Day.
Yeah, he probably could have picked a better day. Maybe his birthday, like MLK or others, to celebrate the day they came into the world.Jason K wrote:It's also the day that he was murdered.

Re: February 2: Chris Kyle Day.
His birthday. The day he enlisted. The day he mustered out. His wedding anniversary. Plenty of options I'm sure.
It's fine if you disagree. I can't force you to be correct.

Which day doesn't really matter much to me. Just glad it was done.

Yeah, I don't think the Govenor's staff put much thought into this before presenting it to de boss.Jason K wrote:It's also the day that he was murdered.

My feelings as well.jmra wrote:Which day doesn't really matter much to me. Just glad it was done.
And our Governor poking a finger in Michael Moore's (and all who feel as he does) eye is a nice bonus.

Re: February 2: Chris Kyle Day.
This day will mean more to most of us than any ground hog could ever think about. A true Texas, American Hero right up there with our guys at the Alamo, San Jacinta, Goliad,etc. I'm glad to see patriots starting to stand up and be counted.
