It is easy to produce a thumb drive version of an ISO using the dreaded
Windows.
I suggest the free YUMI multi-loader:
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/

It is easy to use:

   1. You select the linux distribution
   2. Point to the iso on your system.
   3. Wait for process to finish

Note that you are able to load multiple ISOs to boot from if you have the
space on the thumb drive.

Russell,

  I have multiple thumb drives and I remembered that I have an external HD.
If I get a chance I'll see if I can get everything set up. I do have an
external
dvd/rw I still do recieve cd's from overseas so I keep that option open.

Blessings,
Paul W.

Have you tried it?
When I read the following portion of that page I get impression 
the author tested only booting Windows.

/Begin Quotation
Bootable USB flash disks

This software currently only support Windows bootable disk, can 
work with both BOOTMGR and NTLDR boot mode, can create USB disk 
with FAT, FAT32, exFAT or NTFS file system. (When you are making 
a bootable USB disk, suggest you choose the FAT32 file system.)

This program have be tested with Win8/Win7 PE and WinXP PE 
bootable ISO image files, it can work fine, the generated USB 
disk can normally boot the computers. Only a small part of the 
machines can boot Win8/Win7, but can not boot WinXP, these 
machines will display "NTLDR is missing", for this problem there 
is no good solution currently.
