Gosh, Amy, I don't do anything but post the ping list. Sam does the hard work on the threads each day! Thanks for dropping in. Love your cute signature graphic.

[JustAmy]

Then thanks for the ping and ....
SAM ..... You are doing a wonderful job with this thread. Don't post often but I try to drop in each day. Thank you.

Karl is on our minds, and definetly in our prayers.

We are so proud of him.. and want to thank you for his service.

May God protect him and return him home safely to you,.. in a very short period of time.

FRegards, Vets

Morning all. Not sure of the validity of this, but it's exactly on target anyway.

Quote by Colin Powell:

When in England at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of empire-building by George Bush.

He answered by saying the following:

"Over the years, the United States has sent many of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have EVER asked for in return is enough to bury those that did not return."

...... It became very quiet in the room

I got that in an email from MistyCA. No source given, but I hope it's from a true event. It's certainly a true statement.

This is a new project to help remind us that Victory is the only exit strategy.

Thought I'd give you a head's up of my new song in support of the troops. It's called "Who's Next?" and you can find it at: MP3 of "Who's Next?"

Any feedback is appreciated (Please ping to Freepers everywhere)

Thanks! Chris--Vetnet

[SAMWolf]

Thanks. I'll check it out when I get home. No sound card at work.

[SAMWolf]

Thanks Jen.

If you didn't manage and post the pinglist, I'd be buried and would have to get up about 20 minutes earlier to post the thread.

It's really a big help for me having you keeping track of the pinglist and being the Foxhole's PR Officer.

[SAMWolf]

Thanks DoughtyOne.

[onedoug]

God receive Brandon Tobler, and all of our forces lost, yet ever One with You and Your Creation. Grant in us the strength to endure such mourning, yet always too to bear ourselves forward in the certainty and mercy of your eternal love for us all by what is forever right and good and true. Amen

[SAMWolf]

Thank you onedoug, that is such a heartbreaking E-mail knowing it was his last one.

[Darksheare]

I'm in.
Watching teh news at the moemnt.
I'm feeling like I want to nail that Peter Jennings idiot, hard.

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

Great stuff. I always remember the video of the tank shell hitting the minaret.

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

BTTT

[SAMWolf]

That's why I don't watch the "mainstream" news

[SAMWolf]

Thanks, 4.1O dana super trac pak

[Darksheare]

All I've got here.
I don't have cable.

[SAMWolf]

Bummer!

[Darksheare]

Yeah.
the local cable company is busy jacking rates up and claiming to be adding capability to the lines.
Like cable modem ready lines.
(Yeah, right. Not happening here.)

So far they've messed everyone up and made a bundle off of it too.
