As we settle into the nighttime of dispair, fret not, for the Sun will rise again!!
Good morning!!
We, here, will never forget those who died on September 11, 2001, as we seek to protect the Republic from all who will do her harm!!
It's over, he's gone. Saddam Hussein was hung last night in Iraq at just after 10 PM ET, or just after 6 AM ET local time.
The person who filmed the execution said that he saw fear in Saddam's eyes while he was on the gallows.
United States troops are said to be ready for a surge in violence, but the biggest event so far was spontaneous celebrating in Baghdad streets. The Government did not impose a 24-hour curfew.
A last minute appeal was lodged into the United States court system. The United States District Court summarily dismissed the measure, saying it had no jurisdiction over foreign matters.
Saddam was asked if he had anything to say, and he answered: "No, I don't want to." He did, however, say somthing before he was hung. His last words are: "'God is great. The nation will be victorious and Palestine is Arab."
True to the end, however, those who have no respect for human life, but coach themselves as watchers of human rigts, said things like that of Richard Dicker, director of Human Rights Watch's International Justice Program: "Saddam Hussein was responsible for massive human rights violations, but that can't justify giving him the death penalty, which is a cruel and inhuman punishment." In response to Mr. Dicker--one cannot hold life sacred unless one is willing to hold those repsonsible for taking in wihtout cause to the highest penalty. Fortunately, for Iraq, that has now come to pass, and the healing for many hundreds of thousands may begin.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
I am suspecting that it isn't all that rare. It isn't serious but the body identifies the suture fragment as being a foreign body, it sends the defense mechanisms against it, forms a cyst and expells the particle outward through the skin. It is much like a splinter which is too deep to remove and has to fester.
I'm praying for your complete recovery.
On second thought, never mind, you were right!
(and your description is spot on!)
It developed about two weeks after the operation and took about 7 to 10 days to heal. I think my sutures my have been deeper than yours; I don't know.
..of course, with Christmas shopping/company/and camping....I've hardly had a chance to rest it....
...maybe I can now.
one more thing....did yours leave a scar...(other than the original scar)
No, it didn't leave a scar. I think. The incision scar is about two inches long so this other was part of that scar itself. Your time table sounds about right to me. Perhaps a little on the long side but these are different body parts. Ears get rougher treatment than tummies.
GEE, I'm glad I'm well done, while you 2 are rare, I'm allergic to only the vacuum cleaner.
Roomey just told me there was some confusion this AM shortly after the transfer of saddam to the Iraqi security forces. When the coalition forces expressed concern of his whereabouts, the Iraqi counterpart said "don't worry, he's hanging around here someplace". lol.
It's my leg, right above the knee!!
Till...LOL
Going out to dinner with family....back later
Hey Peach! Feeeeerrrrgettttabbooooutt it! :)) I had a good one and it would have been better if you said you were feeling better. Thank you so much, and hope you are much better when you read this!
>>No, it didn't leave a scar
Who'd ya stab?
Want to go to the LVE Ford thread...the tv coverage commentary is making me gag.
Hope everyone is safe and well.

Evening Molly, all.
So glad you had a wonderful birthday, Two Thirds. And today is the first day I've felt well in a week and a half so I got busy organizing and getting ready for the New Year.
I wish you good health and a prosperous year ahead, Two Thirds.
Above the knee, that would be a mess, especially if you wear shorts.
Miss M, when you're thru with your closets, etc, you can do mine. They are never organized.
The best of health and wonderful early New Year wishes to you!
I live in shorts.
Hello
I made 3 valances to hang over the corner sink in the kitchen and a pair of curtains for the bathroom today.
And I've just finished stirring up the Knox Blox for the kiddos at tomorrow's Christmas gathering.
The rest of the food will be done in the morning.
