Mike called today, he has safely arrived in Kuwait and will be heading to Balad in the morning(his morning, middle of the night here)...he had a funny episode at BWI yesterday at the International terminal....it seems the Today Show was filming a segment...a Maryland NG General came over to Mike and asked him to do an interview with a blond chick(Mike's words) from the Today Show....Mike said, *no f---ing way,....sir!*....Isn't he polite, he remembered to say sir...LOL

I told him he should have given the interview so the audience would hear a patriotic comment instead of some disgruntled NGsmen....did anyone watch the show yesterday?

Oh, thank You, LORD, that Mike arrived safely!

He shoulda done that interview, mystery! It would have been great to see him on TV!

Mystery, I am very proud of your Mike. It would have been good to see him on TV, but that was priceless how he handled the interview request. He's a hero no matter what he did on that one.
Woulda been wonderful to see a picture of the reporterette's face if she heard he said no.

My humble thanks to you and your dear husband for your sharing him with the freedom forces and for his efforts to fight this war. God bless you both and give you ABUNDANT GRACE during the remainder of this separation, which I pray will be to you and Mike as Jacob's years working for Rachel, that seemed but a few days to him because of his love for her (and the grace God poured on them).

I'll be praying for your Mike, and all our service men and women over there. I wish I could be there with them. Since I can't, I wish there was some way I could tell them how much I love and support them. At least let your Mike know there are plenty of us out here who stand with them every moment of every day. We may not have microphones or column inches in newspapers like the media, but I believe we outnumber the naysayers.
