Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

I have a feeling that april 1 thread will have a lot of misinformation. (g)

the wise will discern truth from fiction. the rest of us will wonder..April fools?

[Fledermaus]

Yeah, and never forget that Sheen, when campaigning for Mayor of Malibu, welcomed the homeless.

After he won and the homeless actually came, he had them kicked out. Especially the ones that tried to homestead on his personal beach front property!

Typical left wing hypocrite!

SSgt Jake Frazier, a SOF TACP from the 169 ASOS (Peoria, IL) lost his life in an ambush yesterday in Afghanistan, along with an SF trooper. Please keep Jake and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Whoraldo was last seen at Silky Sally's House of Horizontal Happiness trying to fit in with the 101st. He didn't pass the big watch little pee pee test.

[Centurion2000]

It'd be nice if he could .... but I don't think they can.

"I have a feeling that april 1 thread will have a lot of misinformation. (g)"

Should make for an interesting day!

Bedtime on the west coast, folks. I'll catch you all in the morning! Happy April Fools Day!

[Tree of Liberty]

It's going back and forth. The AP, NBC, and CNN reported that he was thrown out of Iraq by the U.S. military, but just after those reports were filed, Geraldo had a live broadcast from the 101st position saying that he hadn't heard anything about being asked to leave. And there was another report that Fox had agreed to remove him without the military having to officially ask him to go. The situation's clear as mud at the moment.

[Mo1]

Funny Nully .. Bad .. but funny ... LOL

[Centurion2000]

Then I stand corrected ....

[Dolphy]

This would amount to holding the Republican Guards by the nose, while kicking them in the ass

Is it wrong to say how much satisfaction this scenario brings to me:)

[Centurion2000]

Title's fixed ....

[AFPhys]

Signing in.

[null and void]

*smootch*

[Mo1]

The Admin Mod doesn't need to lock the thread .. just change the title to read day 13

[Fledermaus]

Day 13..April Fools Day...perfect fit!

[Proud2BAmerican]

Any threads on FR concerning the recent (today or yesterday I think) friendly fire incident between a U.S. A-10 plane and British ground troops? I think one British soldier was killed, several injured, and one was quoted as being very critical of the A-10 pilot, saying he was acting like a cowboy w/ no regard for human life -- apparently the pilot totally missed the big Union Jack on the military vehicles identifying them as coalition fighters.

[Centurion2000]

He did ... I didn't know that editing the title could be done .....

Besides I wanted to be the belly girl poster for day 13 :P

Ah well.

CNN, good video on fighting at Najef, Royal Marines.
