And, since nobody's up and reading this...
A plea to the powers that be: please treat Fallujah like Carthage, it will go a long way in solving the problems of Iraq...
And, if televised by al-Jazeera, the jihadi problem.

Stare at the four dots in the center of the image for 30 seconds. Then look away and blink your eyes rapidly.
Oh, and good evening.

Hey, sorry about the Titans beating up on the Dolphins in week one. We needed that win given the fiasco that happened at home on Sunday against the Colts.

Sorry, it's way too early to think you can kill off the thread for the night ... ;-)
I've seen that before ... it's really neat!
We Titan fans have had to deal with a lot of question marks this off season. Eddie George is gone, but by now no one really thinks we would have been better off with him. The main thing was all our salary cap issues and watching Jevon Kearse get double-teamed last night against Minnesota was a painful reminder of the hole that his departure made in our defensive line.
We had a chance to go 2 games up on the Colts on Sunday, something we really would need if we have a chance of winning the division this year.
It's my fault we lost, I think. We were ahead 17-10 when I dozed off. When I woke up, the Colts were ahead 24-17 and on the move again.
Life for the Dolphins must be a little weird without Ricky. His decision to quit/retire seemed strange to me. Odd timing too.

Fox News Alert - Person on Watch List on Airplane to America (Cat Stevens...)
There are some really funny comments on the thread while FReepers waited for the story to develop but the facts come to light at #78 and following.
I don't know why, but I think like that too. But Sunday evening, I forced myself to stay up...so, no excuses for me...

I've read somewhere that it's slightly possible (though not probable) that the remnants of Ivan could even end up crossing back over FL a third time. Sheesh!
This may not be the best time to admit that I was a huge Cat Stevens fan during my formative years. I still have some of his music around and now my oldest daughter has been getting into it.
He got too weird for me even before he converted to Islam. The last Cat Stevens album I ever bought had what I can only describe as a love song to a guy named Randy. Just turned my stomach. I can't help but think his conversion to Islam was his way of trying to purge his past.
I also watched the John O'Neill interview tonight with Hannity and was amazed at the question Colmes asked about Free Fire zones. I had not seen or listened to sKerry's comment on the Cavett show but he is so wrong about his interpretation of the ROE (rules of engagement).
O'Neill had it correct... on numerous occasions we were in Free Fire zones but the only distinction that gave us was we did not have to ask permission to engage an obvious enemy. Many, many times we passed through villages, spoke with residents, fed the kids and never thought of firing on them as they were not combatants. That is where Article 3 of the GC comes in.
sKerry, as O'Neill mentioned, fired on and killed innocents in the sampan incident, then lied about it in his after action reports. They were in a Free Fire zone at the time but there was only one person with a weapon. After taking him out there was no need to kill the others.
sKerry has lots of mental problems in my opinion. From my reading of "Unfit For Command" I think he was scared stiff all the time. That's the reason he "left" the rest of the boats when the "3" boat was hit by the mine.
sKerry reminds me so much of Lyndon Johnson whose biographer writes that, though LBJ was well over 6', when someone came after him he would fall back onto a bed or a chair, put his legs up and kick in a windmill fashion. He refused to stand up and fight.
sKerry is all mouth!
I had no clue what had happened in his life in the last few decades.
Hope you're continuing your progress back to normal!
Hi kay...
Up late, can't sleep, probably because I had a late nap. Been taking things so easy this past week or so but feel the need to start to do things, especially in the yard.
The debris from the hurricane is gone for the most part but still have a utility trailer full that has to be taken to the dump. My neighbor, who is also my pastor, has his debris piled along the side of the road... a pile about 60' long and 5' high. As one could guess it is also about 6' wide. Sometime, hopefully soon, the people with pick-up contracts will come along.
and after...
