(11-03) 10:14 PST BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) --

Strong explosions were heard late Monday in central Baghdad, and it appeared the blasts were coming from the western side of the Tigris River.

Five blasts shook the area in quick succession about 9:10 p.m.

The U.S. military command had no information on the incident.

I'm guessing its not the sound of MOABs destroying Sadr City. Too bad.

They've finally hooked up the Badgad central sewer system...

[Semper Paratus]

Here we go again. Hope Americans dodged this.

Prayers for the safety of our soldiers and allies.

This is truly becoming a nightmare for us and the good Iraquis. We must do something differently.

I don't suppose anyone is particularly surprised by bombs going off in Baghdad... they should be used to it by now.
