ABC ^ | March 23, 2003

[ewing]

In tribute to the Armed Forces today the participants will be mostly dressed in black and for the men business attire is encouraged.

Celebratory music has also been cancelled as well

[doug from upland]

Yes, our brave warriors are going to free the Iraqi people so they can live in peace.

[sweetliberty]

He was definitely type cast wasn't he?

[justshe]

He said the usual thank you's.....and he ended his speech with talking about the pain in the world...and said, who ever you pray to, whether you call him God or Allah, pray for a speedy resolution to this war. He then said that his best friend from Queens was in Kuwait as a soldier...and he hoped he came home soon.

I paraphrased....but think I got most of it.

*ss covering time...with 70% of the American people approving of this war they know they had better be nice to the men and women dying to keep their butts free.

[Wondervixen]

>>Hmmm. Deer kills usually get tied to the hood...

Yes, but we're not talking deer, we're talking hippopotomus!

Has Olivia de Haviland had work, or is she just still that beautiful? Look at those cheekbones!

[Lil'freeper]

The advertisers might have been whispering in his ear...

[gortklattu]

Julie Andrews still looks great....

[RummyChick]

watch for peace signs on the ole' timers

[Gunder]

Geez, this is gonna take a while.

[Cosmo]

Is that true or are you speculating?

[Windcatcher]

Glad to see someone finally notice. One of the reasons I stopped watching the Oscars is because the back-slapping and self-adulation was making me nauseous.

[TheSpottedOwl]

I have not spotted one flag pin, yet!! You won't either. But you will see plenty of these "peace pins" that were designed for the occasion.

Gackkk! Looks like 2 slugs mating, or drippings off a solder iron.

[freedumb2003]

Ms. de hviland is 87 years old!

Wow! She looks great

[Lil'freeper]

The ole'timers seem to be rather classy...

Ooooh, SIR Sean Connery.... yummy...

[Anamensis]

I think Geena has had a child recently.

I think she's eaten several!

[HairOfTheDog]

Has Olivia de Haviland had work, or is she just still that beautiful? Look at those cheekbones!

She does look great doesn't she?

[Fraulein]

Thank you!

[gortklattu]

Gina...whoa...Gina....

dont' take your diet so seriously...

"I lost so much weight on my last diet that I doubled it...

[My back yard]

I am just tuning in and trying to catch up. I've seen several of the peace pins. Is anyone wearing an American flag pins at all? I did see Matthew Macanhuawhatever with a red white and blue lapel flower thing.
