Blair's Dad was promoted to Captain on Thursday. That's a big deal!
Neither Blair's Dad nor Mom posted anything about it on their FB pages
Although they did go to a Fancy Pants Dance!
And left Blair with Poppy & Nanny for a whole night! Nanny took Blair shopping, which is no big deal, cause Nanny will take the dog next door shopping on a Saturday!
Anyway... I spent 3 years in the Army. Got to be a Spec5 and the highest ranking Officer I ever got to talk to was a Captain. Captains were people the Grunts respected. Lieutenants were like the Parish Priest. Captains were like the Parish Pastor who was also a Monsignor.
Majors were like Bishops... & Colonels were similar to Cardinals.
Generals were like Popes.
In today's vernacular...Colonels & Generals are the One Percenters!
So I just want to say congratulations to Blair's Dad on making Captain!
