Re post #317
Were you talkin' to me? Or just generally yelling into the thread? I did not say anything about inspectors - as in WMD.
I was addressing the veracity of the comments made by the curator of the Iraqi National Museum today.

Dear Saddam Hussein & sons; Remaining Taliban & Osama bin Laden;
We are pleased to announce that we unequivocally accept your challenge to an old-fashioned game of whoop-ass. Now that we understand the rule, that there are no rules, we look forward to playing without them for the first time.
Since this game is a winner-take-all, we unfortunately are unable to invite you to join us at the victory celebration. But rest assured that we will toast you -- LITERALLY. While we will admit that you are off to an impressive lead, it is however now our turn at the plate. By the way, we will be playing on your diamond now... Batter up!
Our team line up is as follows:
Club Owner ~ God
Manager ~ George W. Bush
Ass't Manager ~ Dick Cheney
Head Coach ~ Colin Powell
Assistant Coach ~ Donald Rumsfeld
Starting Pitcher ~ Tommy Franks
1st Base ~ U. S. Marine Corps
2nd Base ~ U. S. Navy
3rd Base ~ U.S. Air Force
Shortstop and clean up hitter ~ U. S. Army
Outfield ~ Firemen and Policemen
Umpire ~ None Required - remember - the manager gave you ample time to forfeit the game. Now it's too late for discussion. He told you there'll be no further negotiations or diplomacy!
Pinch hitters as needed ~
U.S. Navy SEALS
U.S. Army Green Berets
U.S. Army Rangers
U.S. Air Force PJs
Delta Force
And, since there are no rules, we've decided to add:
4th Base ~ United Kingdom and
5th Base ~ Spain
Opening Ceremonies:
Vocal 1: The Star Spangled Banner. Ya'll stand, face the American flag and place your right hand over your heart and sing.
Vocal 2: Lee Greenwood ~ God Bless The U.S.A.
Vocal 3: Neil Diamond ~ Comin' To America
Vocal 4: Bruce Springstein ~ Born In The U.S.A.
Vocal 5: The Mormon Tabernacle Choir ~ Battle Hymn of the Republic
You may choose whoever you want for your team, France I know has been coaching you and Germany, Russia and China will at least be cheering for you. You can even get the Dixie Chicks to sing your national anthem. You might even find some human shields in Hollywood. There are many EX-movie stars who seem to really love you. I'm sure they would like to play on your team and we'll be glad to let you have them.
It won't really matter how many useful idiots you get on your side and (even if you all shave), our guys are gonna win!!!
Sincerely.
On behalf of the 270,000,000 Citizens of the United States of America
P.S.
May we recommend at this time that you give your soul to Allah; 'cause your ass is ours! Good-bye

it will be hard to beat the truck with the forklift on the back on fire chase
That was here in Dallas. that cop throwing out the spike strips was pretty gutsy
I was looking right at that and thought the officer had missed and was worried about the police cars that were in pursuit of the van.

You guys---don't laugh at me, but I put on ABC for mindless background noise as I putter, and yes, a soap is on (blush).
But, Peter Jennings just broke in with a Special Report and said Tariq Aziz has surrendered.
I went to Fox and MSNBC and both are at commercial and CNN has Ralph Nader on.
Get this: Jennings wrapped up by saying the U.S. has not said why he is wanted. (Lord, give me strength)

The Alert on FNC stated it is "believed" US forces have him custody. Now being confirmed by FNC...we got him.

Is Jennings buds with Aziz? (rhetorical question)
