Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help: To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

How cool would it be to see an American tank roll past the Bag-cam

[retrokitten]

See #3055 we have the official green light for chit-chat.

[ChewedGum]

Perhaps the bats are really on our side. (Like the dolphins...both use sonar.)

I confess that I have been watching that silly cam since sundown...starting to lose it. I confess that I even saw the funny lady.

Gum

[Jaded]

Either that or they will gas their own people.

[prairiebreeze]

I didn't know that about Woodruff's kid. I'll have to cut her a little more slack. Sometimes.

Prairie

I haven't seen much of Calypso Louie lately.

He had some very painful surgery on a certain part of his body that he sits on, a while back, and that took a lot of the wind out of him, so to speak.

[allodialman]

It's snowing!

[Jaded]

Definetely. Is spelling important?

[knak]

I'd like to see the marines run by!

[retrokitten]

This is probably a really stupid question, I know, but it's something I have been wondering about.

Bats eat bugs, right? Well, do they really have a whole lot of bugs in the desert for the bats to eat? I live in the midwest and was under the impression that there aren't a whole lot of bugs in the desert.

[pitinkie]

No but my son made me buy that darn pasta pro cooker!

[melodie]

why did we get the green light?

[Rokke]

Does anyone else hear weird music on CBS Baghdad cam?

[Dawgmeister]

Dad left.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Did you ever read The Bat Poet by Maurice Sendack? It's lovely. Bats would not be on Saddam's side....except the rabid ones, imho.

(chat)

[SoldiersGirl]

My children, all 3 of them, LOVE coffee, I have to hide my cappucinos because those'll disappear if I set it down for a second...Now I make the girls milk, with a splash of coffee. They won't drink tea though, not a sip.

[melodie]

dad?

[null and void]

thank you...the word escaped me..

I hate it when that happens...

[pitinkie]

I am now telling him that I will then be obsessed with SARS.

[mwl1]

I too deeply regret her child's affliction but she can always quit her job and stay home with her child. That way, the child suffers less and God knows we do, too.
