Keep up the great work. And Dutchess, thanks for the interview.

Just wanted to add one more thing. I received an email from my oldest in an "unknown" location in the Persian Gulf. I had sent him a comment from another Freeper and he responded. Here's his email. As you can tell we are a family of baseball fans.
====================
Dad&Mom
What up Dad? Yeah, it looks like Mike is doing pretty well. His stats are the best in his 4 yrs of college ball. I wish I was there to see it. This weekend is pretty big for his team. They need a sweep to get some breathing room for the playoffs. I actually saw some espn baseball highlights on opening day. It was so nice to see some of home.
Yeah, I wish we could see all the news. We do get AFN and CNN headlines and FOXnews, but only in short spurts. Oh, and espn every now and then. When I get home I will fill you in on all the details of what we are doing. It is truly incredible. I will never forget it.
Even if the Rangers suck, it will be nice to go see them play when I get back. I will have to take my unborn son.(crossed fingers) Get him started early.
You can tell the Freepers that I and everyone here deeply appreciates all the support, it means so much to know that our work is not unnoticed, and some Americans care.
Anyway, good to hear from you, I better go, starving, time for some food. Flew last night and didn't get in til around 0300. Hot as a mofo here today. The a/c can't keep up.
Take care and talk you soon. Love Brian
Coffee's on
That's right neighborly of you, Thanks! =:)
THIS IS A REQUEST FOR PRAYER FOR A POW AND A SINGLE MOM BEING HELD BY THE IRAQIS.
IT WAS SENT TRO ME BY A COWORKER. PLEASE KEEP RASHONDA JONHSON AND HER FAMILY IN YOUR PRAYERS
Subject: SISTERS TAKING ACTION FOR ANOTHER SISTER PRAYER IS NEEDED.
We have to stay in prayer for this sister and her family!!! This was forwarded to me and I was compelled to send it to you. If this is all I can do I do it willingly. Share this with everyone you know and get your churches to lift all our POW's in prayer. LADIES, This morning on the Tom Joyner Show, they discussed the young, black, single mom that is now a POW (name...RASHONDA JOHNSON).This is the first time in many years that a woman has been captured and held as POW.....Iraq is known for extreme measures when it comes to torture and especially rape chambers.............I am sure that the males WILL do all that they can, but I am also sure that they will separate her for that reason. THEY WILL BEAT, RAPE AND TORTURE HER FOR PUNISHMENT OR JUST GENERAL PURPOSES. It is reported that her mother is not taking this well (can you imagine?), she is not allowed to speak of what the US Government tells her, and she has Rashonda's two year old...... We may not be able to do anything for our Sister that has been held captive in Iraq, but we know that God has already dispatched a host of angels to aid and watch over her. The key is that through prayer, we empower those angels to fight the demonic forces that desire to take our Sister's life and dignity through rape and abuse. We come against the acts of Satan and his demons and we shall bind them. "No weapon formed against Rashonda will succeed...Angels will guard and protect her, and if some ugly demon should approach her, he will see mighty warrior Angels surrounding her, protecting her and giving her peace and comfort. This we will rejoice in, for it is done ...in the Name of Jesus. Thank God for all that He has already done and is doing for Rashonda. Give Him the Glory. P.S. Pass it on...Leviticus 26:7-8 - And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword (God's word/prayer). And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword. There is power is numbers...
This is the MOST to surrender at one time in the war so far ! . . .
