Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

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

To all who helped this get started and keep it running, thank you!

Special thanks to An.American.Expatriate for staring the daily threads, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, and, of course, Belly Girl...

Grrr, I was ready to post the same...he was a good Batman, but the script was horrible. So was Joel Shumacher, the director.

He was ok, but as far as I'm concerned, Keaton is Batman.

Hmmmm I wonder if FN will have pity on us and not bring in the normal Sat morning Fox "B" team. I don't think I could handle some of that crew this morning.

did any of you get any sleep?

You're kidding, right?

I went to bed "early" ('bout one) Thursday night, got up at six Friday, and haven't left the "console" since except for quick "body breaks."

I've got a 20" TV w/ TiVo, and a 21" monitor with Real (CBS Bagcam), WMP (CNN Bagcam), and a TV card going at once, plus this thread and Latest Posts! I have a stocked "office" fridge within reach of my chair, and a loving wife who kept me fed all day. She'll be up in two hours, and if I'm nice she might make me a pot of coffee!

And you think I can get some sleep while all this history is taking place in real time :-)?

A few minutes ago the CBS cam area was an active war zone. It's quiet now.

You are tougher than I am. I tried to watch while on the sofa, but yard work yesterday morning was my downfall. I woke up to hear Shep going nuts about Baghdad, but I couldn't stay awake!

This footage on Fox is amazing.

If Juliette is in one of her short leather minis, I wouldn't notice whoever they put next to her.
