Israeli girls write messages on a shell at a heavy artillery position near Kiryat Shmona, in northern Israel, next to the Lebanese border, Monday, July 17, 2006

I sure will pray for him...thanks for letting us know.

I'm glad you did, thanks. I bookmarked the site.

Batchelor sounds like he's replaying this guy from earlier.

I didn't know that about the movie Chinatown.

We'll be eating and sightseeing. I quit cooking when the last child left the house, pretty much. So when soCal and I go out we must eat. It's the only time I get great food!

ABC's Nightline's report just talked about the example of Israel listening to int'l advice and giving up land for peace in Gaza, only to have the Palestinians move in and begin shooting off missiles.

I almost fell out of my chair. This is Terry Moran's ABC News? Actually pointing out the stupidity of the liberal 'solutions' that were carried out?

I have 3 within 5 minutes from me. I'm shocked.

What I say about LA, there is no there, there.
Am glad I live in San Diego

Have you seen this thread just posted on FR? I mention it because it almost appears that N.Korea and Iran are working together.

N. Korea: North calls alert, U.S. and Korea plan 5-way talks(wartime mobilization preparation)

A lot of poeple would be shocked if they knew how many mosques are in this country. They are like chess pieces on a board. We have one in my town, it's on the main road that leads onto the military base.

[hipaatwo]

Thanks for the prayers. I'm holding my breath now.

[sageb1]

Issuing a challenge...lol! If BurbankKarl isn't here to start 7/19, you are elected. ;)

[Txsleuth]

Why thank you....I chuckled...hehe

" I think they will invade Lebanon with a large force. How can Israel find most or all the rockets without an invasion? Sporadic rocket attacks could last weeks, months or years. Are they going to close down the port of Haifa every other day?"

Me, too. Part of the delay is that reservists are being sent in to replace regulars in the West bank, who can only move north after they've been relieved.

[racing fan]

It is still 7/18 here on the west coast. It shouldn't be started until it is 7/19 here.

[sageb1]

I'm eastern...2 minutes. hehe
