Attack on Iraq Betting Pool
Friday, August 30, 2002 | Momaw Nadon

Posted on 08/30/2002 8:14:01 AM PDT by Momaw Nadon

It seems like an attack on Iraq is coming soon.

Place your bet as to when the attack will begin.

Whoever gets closest to the date and time wins.

Attack time must be specified in Month, Day, Year, Hour, and Minute

For the hour, don't forget to specify what time zone you are referring to.

There is no decision on a prize to be awarded yet except for bragging rights.

Care to take a stab at it?

December 2nd, 2002, 7:00pm EST.

And that is definitely a wild stab in the dark. LOL! If my brother-in-law was still stationed at Camp Lejeune, I'd be better able to make a guess based on what he says is going on down there, but he's now a Recruiter in another state.

Nope. The war of nerves hasn't even begun yet.

It appears the New Moon (Rosh Khodesh) in December will be on the 4th.

Just to clarify, the date and time of the massive initial attack is what we are talking about.

Oh, we're all stabbing wildly at this point.

Saddam talks tough, but I bet he ain't sleeping too well anymore!

I'll stand pat with that. We'll have to consult the judges if there's an air vs. land ruling required.

Hey, that's my birthday! It would be a nice present! Though I'd much prefer we go in sooner than later.

Still have to go through the phony sanctions/weapons inspector rigamarole so the French don't try to bring us up on war crimes. Plus, too hot still in September, truck tires explode on the sands.

"Attack" needs to be defined, as it may begin with fits and starts.

Perhaps, in addition, a pool on the day, hour, minute when Saddam is declared dead or is in custody of U.S. Forces.
