I am a veteran of the U.S. Army and we are the proud parents
of two sons. Our oldest son served his country on active
duty for over 14 years in the U.S. Air Force, and then once
he got out he joined (and is still a member) the U.S.
Air Force Reserve. Our youngest son retired with 20 years 
in the U.S. Air Force; he posted this on his website 
and I thought it was worth displaying here also.



I am a soldier this is my choice.
I wear my uniform proudly.
For this is the life I have chosen.
I do not ask much from others,
Just live your life right.
For I am a soldier,
Willing to fight for this right.



And any current or former soldier will recognize the following:


I (YOUR NAME) DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR THAT I WILL SUPPORT AND
DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, AGAINST
ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC, THAT I WILL BEAR TRUE
AND ALLEGIANCE TO THE SAME, AND THAT I WILL OBEY THE
ORDERS OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE
ORDERS OF THE OFFICERS APPOINTED OVER ME, ACCORDING TO
REGULATIONS AND THE UNIFORM CODE OF MILITARY JUSTICE
...SO HELP ME GOD..

Hi! My name is John Burns. I was in the U.S. Army for 15+ years being stationed in Indiana (Ft. Ben Harrison), Louisiana (Ft Polk), Germany (5th Signal Command, Worms), South Carolina (Ft Jackson) and Korea (Camp Casey).

For a hobby (besides computers) I do magic as a clown (YOU-YOU) and as a magician (JONDINI). Magic has been my "HOBBY" for almost 44 years and I really enjoy it. It all started back in the 6th grade when my homeroom teacher (Mrs. Georgia Nuzum) 'made' me read a book for a report. Just at random, she selected a book off the shelf and it was on Houdini....the rest, so they say, is history.

I made these pages just for fun and to see what kind of damage I could do to a web site. I have pages of jokes, tributes and fun..as time goes on I will expand it (hopefully). Hope you enjoy it and if you don't care, drop me a line sometime and tell me what ya think.

Thanks you for visiting!!
