Anything big happen while I was trying to find my normal life?

It's 4th Infantry Division (Mech)
4th ID is still here...well..some are still here, they started leaving yesterday.

Let him have his inspections. Kind of like when you have an uncle with Dimensia who insists on going into the back yard to dig for buried chicken heads, you let him. Kind of pitiful, but no harm done.

LOL! That brings back memories. My Dad made a special type of rake for my great grandmother to use to rake leaves. It had only one little spike on it so she had to pick up each leaf individually. (she had Alzheimers)

Is Shep still refering to the media traveling with the troops as 'in bed with'?

If he is, I haven't heard it.

That might me more likely than you think. It happened several time in Marine Units in the Korean War were reporters where former Marines assigned to marine units. Once a Marine, Always a Marine.

So, after a long day of posting, it's time for this ex-pat to call it a day (from 5:45 to 22:10 local on FR [g])

You all are the best.

Prayers for our troops, our fallen and the soon to be freed Iraqi people.

Godspeed

(goodnight Belly Girl wherever you are) [G]

"...he kept saying, "Come on, what are you being paid by Saddam?"

LOL!! See, even the Iraqi's think the human sheidls are morons! LOL!

I try to avoid other channels besides fox. But I did stumble across CNN the other night when they were discussing POW training in the military. The guy on from the Pentagon was describing their research, etc, and how they have people from the pentagon go and speak with the troops about it. When he finished, the CNN anchor commented: "then they go back to the pentagon."

That channel got changed really quick. Where the hell do they think soldiers from the pentagon come from? UGH.

Story is that the Brits found 300 (or 3,000 according to Shep) chemsuits and a tank (treads and gun type) stashed in a hospital in one of the towns that starts with "N".

Right. Doctors, staff, and patients have now been encouraged by Coalition forces to go back in and restore function as a hospital.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Heh. You could have milked it. (^;

[retrokitten]

I think it's sand or rain, but it could be smoke.

True. (Are you sure you want to keep that link to your personal website on your FR profile page?)

Goodnight, A.A.E. Thank you.

Bush approves nuclear response.
