When Shep was doing his visit with Rick last night he mentioned how popular the show was. He commented that when they thought of doing this chat format, that they didn't think it would catch on, but their ratings from the night before (an 11pm east cost start, 8pm west coast) was 5.3. 5.3 at that time of night, WOW.

Anyway, I adore their chat time. I feel like I truly learn more about the spirit of the soldiers and what is happening in that 2 hour slot, than the other 22 hours.

Baghdad Bob wouldn't admit the war was over, he would run and hide, as he apparantly has done.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Just back.

I think Ari responded that we are already currently treating many Iraqi civilians in DoD medical facilities and that we will continue to do so."

Thank you, justshe. Ari's good. Helen NEVER studies. (^;

Moron, got it Carolina....thanks, heh.

tame, cockadootie! ....that's a new word. Helen's inspirational, isn't she. John McCain...I want Ollie, Major Bob and Col. Hunt (give us a free nation and we expect miracles from the media). (^:

Cboldt, we're writing a list. The press had better straighten up. We can now show them pictures of what happens when a people have been lied to for years. Yet another fringe benefit!

[Timeout]

Yeah, baby! Hunky Aussie Guy!

I'm so glad you invited him over here...I'd almost forgotten about him. I suspect he could have a movie career ahead of him if he wanted.

[Fledermaus]

Agree. The Brits deserve our thanks. I never thought I'd get to like Blair but I have a lot of respect for him now.

[prairiebreeze]

Another ping request pretty please.
