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...

No, this is a new press strategy by the Pentagon. If you have a big story and the press doesn't really emphasize it, you wait a couple of days and put it out as new news, because reporters have memoroies like fleas and won't know the difference.

Seriously, I never saw an actual story claiming he was dead. Lots of supposition by reporters. Maybe the Pentagon acted like he was dead so that Ali would think he was safe.

Every once-in-a-while I like to get microwaveable White Castle cheeseburgers! I live in 'Taxachusetts' (the PAY State) and sadly, we don't have any 'belly-bomber' franchises here, so the grocer's freezer will have to do...

Ahmed and Norm must have about 17 days of drink cans up on that roof. Every time one of them gets up and walks around, you can hear them kicking around a bunch of cans.
