Jeff Head ping! Please come say hello to Jeff!

[Billie]

Good morning! Yes, it IS still morning here! If you're pinged twice to today's thread, my apologies - I wanted to use our Finest FReeper's ping list as well as our regular one!

[Jeff Head]

Billie, thanks for these kind words. They really are too kind. At Klamath I really just wanted to go over there and help some friends who were facing an atrocious act of tyranny. It took on a life of its own from there.

[SoDak]

Thanks Jeff...good work...

[Billie]

With the deepest thanks and appreciation to daisyscarlett for today's excellent profile. And, daisy, though I hope your week is going well, I MISS YOU! HURRY HOME!

Today's Calendar - very wise advice. Yesterday is gone. Make the most of today.

FIENDS' TORTURE CHAMBERS (Saddam & Sons)

---

Saddam, with sons Uday, left, and Qusay, right, has put a command structure in place that transfers to Qusay the authority to use weapons of mass destruction.

September 25, 2002 -- WASHINGTON - Saddam Hussein and his evil sons operate a network of torture chambers in which thousands of Iraqis are kept in small metal boxes, have their tongues cut, and get their hands mutilated with electric drills, according to a British intelligence report released yesterday.

The shocking allegations, contained in the 50-page dossier presented to parliament by British Prime Minister Tony Blair, say repression in Iraq is so pervasive that 40 members of Saddam's own family including women and children have been put to death because of suspected plotting against his regime.

Jeff ~~~ I don't know of anyone more deserving of this honor and recognition (except for JimRob himself). Your dedication and your patriotism are a wonderful inspiration to us all.

Thank you for all that you do!

Thanks for the ping Billie.

Jeff, congratulations on winning Freeper of the Year award. It is well-deserved. You set a good example in your service to God and Country, with all your work. Your book series project is an amazing undertaking by itself, one which I sincerely hope and expect to be a huge success. Thanks for all the inspiration.

Jeff Head. I don't know what else I can add to what has been said about you. Except perhaps that little incident where I managed to get you booted from FreeRepublic. Of course I hurried and sent an explanation and plea to JimRob and got things resolved. . .
