"There's no end to how much you can do with cards," said Pfc. Joe Green, an engineer in Magness' squad. "You can do anything with them. You can put them in a hat, plaster them to your head, do magic tricks. Cards are one of the most versatile things ever -- kind of like cheese."

Well, there you go!

If you want on or off my pro-Coalition ping list, please Freepmail me. Warning: it is a high volume ping list on good days (most days are good days).

LOL @ the cheese comment!

They let off one thing though. Playing cards are also great at keeping track of which Baathists/Saddamites have been taken down...

Another great use for cards, when you want to send the very best.

Unless things have changed since the decade I have been out, there are probably several hundred seriously competitive games of Spades going on right now in Iraq.
