Hi!!
I'm about to conk out but having fun.
I was listening to Noory and the story came on. Now this is some REALLY GOOD news!
They said "facial recognition, fingerprints and known scars" were used to identify him.
Please keep a minute to minute on Blair.
Hubby's gone to bed and I don't want to wake him by turning livingroom TV on.
Just saw a replay of the announcement. Iraqi reporters were cheering. It's telling that so many of their Western counterparts refuse to be as happy about the announcement as the Iraqis.
Oh, yeah - you're coming *from* the wet low *to* the dry high. Lots of mountains and "grades," tho. Make sure tires are a little low before starting and your air and fuel filters are clean.
I've had oil "boil" in my car here in Houston in the summer. It's terrible.
We ususally don't but some days we do, just to make sure that we catch them in the act.
You're supposed to be in a good mood this morning, did someone pee in your cornflakes?
They have photos of the strike because it was lazer guided and also photos of Zarqawi.

No Fox in computer room, only MSNBC. Must go to bedroom to watch Fox. Stupid Comcast!
Thanks...I have always been a "how does it work" person. My brain is full of irrelevant details--not much room left for the important stuff, LOL!
For those interested, the Strategypage link from yesterday is here:

And all that stuff you and Amy and Jim sent to our guys in Iraq, they will have a lot of goodies to celebrate with!
So glad you all did that!
But...but...but...it's going to be a dry heat and you know what they say about dry heat!
Actually I don't know how it's happening but my a/c has managed to keep the house cool so far. Last year I could only get the house cooled down to about 85 during the day and it would be at least 80 inside until about 3:00am which made it hard to sleep comfortably.
He was pure evil. So glad he's gone. I'm sure the Iraqi people are even more relieved than I am.
I know, my family lives in Conroe.
"Candygram"
Oh, Moussaoui isn't a terrorist. I know. OBL *said so.*
I hope they bury him with a Pig.
Morning!!!
