Thanks.

Blair is working his way towards importance on Churchill's level in the history books.

Hard to ask for a better ally.

Not super human. Not 7 feet tall making millions dropping a big orange ball through a hoop.

Just a bunch of normal guys defending their country, their freedom and their way of life.

It's what you do that makes you a hero. These guys are a bunch of hero's!

I do have a general question....I noticed on a recent flight that my cell phone has no signal pretty much as soon as we were up in the air (looking at the signal bar). I'm assuming that it get's worse 3,000 ft. up in the air. Were the passengers using the plane phones - that ones that were behind the headrests to make the phone calls? Is it related to different type of service? I have Nextel and my wife has T-Mobile. None of them had service signal as pretty much as soon as we got off the ground. I would imagine that the signal would even be worse as you are flying over Pennsylvania farm land. Can anyone tell me at what flight level that phone lines typically fade out?

Ted lied.

Barbara was at 30,000 feet the whole time don't you know and couldn't have called. Ted's a drama queen and just wanted more sympathy for the death of his wife.

No wait, she didn't have anything to call about. There were no hijackers. The pilot was working for the government plot and just deliberately committed suicide by flying the plane into the Pentagon.

No wait, I seem to recall lots of doubts that a plane even flew into the Pentagon. I wonder where that flight went???

My head hurts.

To: Knitting A Conundrum

n a press conference early Thursday afternoon, UK Prime Minister Tony Blair said that he finds it astounding that President Ahmadinejad has called for Israel to be "wiped off the map" as a solution to the Middle East's problems.

"If someone else were to call for Iran or Syria to be wiped off the map, people would be tearing the house down!" he added.
