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...

He was an interesting character. "Engineer of the Year" in New Jersey one year. Planted a privet hedge on our boundary the year before he cashed in -- I asked him who would be trimming my side of it? He promised he would, and his widow sure enough does (if I don't first).

The dad of my neighbor the one house next to his was also Scot-English. He saw the Germans bombing of Scotland in WWI, when he was a kid. Dirgibles.

You'd think at least one of the kinky ones would have left a cam up.

Maybe the war is over so the networks all went home to find the next big ratings grabber.

Reporters got a tip that O.J. was holding Michael Jackson over the railing of a hotel balcony and they grabbed the cams and ran.

Contrast is alot lower on the webcam than it was on Fox. Still very overcast, though.

Hey kitten! Whazzup? Looks like folks here are bored (still) :^) I just got back from movie---I hope Hugh Grant isn't a lib dweeb. Prolly, but he's kinda funny sometimes. I saw him for $2 at the local theatre--"2 Weeks Notice".

Any big news? Looks like some black-dressed fedayeen showed up in BD. And Chemical Ali sleeps with the fishes.

"I'd say it is not only proof, it was a coded message from Tony to us. "

He did have an impish grin when he leaned toward the camera and announced the change.
