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,...

There are bugs EVERYWHERE

There were alot of bugs in the Arizona deserts when I went out there, and Id be willign to bet they've found a way to survive in the Middle East aswell, very resillient the insectoids are

[Jaded]

Could be one of the numerous daily calls to prayer.

Now I hear what sounds like a plane.

There is still way more traffic than there has been for the last 2 weeks. Maybe there is something to the story of the Fedayeen gathering up civilians and taking them to the airport.

Here's the offical announcement... Link :-)

[PrivateIdaho]

It's snowing!

Here too... was hoping to do some yard work and wash the truck this weekend but it's not looking good.

[SoldiersGirl]

My husband told me after the first time he went to Kuwait, that there are so many flies surrounding your food, you end up eating half of them.He said they're so lazy they sit on the corner of your mouth and wait for you to bring the food to them
EW.
now wonder he won't eat raisins now.

[Dawgmeister]

I was bad today, I posted chit-chat, so I got spanked.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Is the Col. on FN telling the RG how to defend Baghdad?

[ztiworoh]

Ive NEVER actually seen it snowing, Ive seen snow on the ground once, but never snowing

[melodie]

tisk tisk dawg.....none of us chit chat..lol

[ChewedGum]

I don't think Iraq is completely desert though. Baghdad is between two rivers (Tigris & Euphrates) and is supposed to be near the site of the Garden of Eden. (Wonder if they had bugs in Eden...)

Gum

As my Hubby is Puerto Rican, our son has been drinking coffee since he was little. Albeit small amounts back then!!!

[retrokitten]

Okay that answers that! SG, that is so totally gross. I wouldn't eat raisins either! LOL!

[mwl1]

Reminds me of the recent joke about flies. The husband kills 5 flies and tells his wife 3 were male, 2 female.

"How the Hell can you tell the sex of a fly?," asks the wife.

Husband replies, "3 were on the beer can, the other 2 were on the phone."

[PrivateIdaho]

Ive NEVER actually seen it snowing, Ive seen snow on the ground once, but never snowing

It's kinda cool around November/December - but in April it starts to get depressing.

[Dawgmeister]

Maybe B24 can start a new thread and talk to himself. I
never Post when something important is going down, I know my place.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Coffee break. I think Poser will get his 4000 tonight. (^;

[ztiworoh]

Well Im moving from Florida to Philadelphia for college next year, so it should be a very interesting experience for me

[pitinkie]

Some car beeping..must be a guy waiting for his girl to finish getting ready!

[pitinkie]

I got one of those once..

[Bryan24]

While you're chit-chatting, don't miss the discussion of the video of Pfc. Lynch's rescue. They're about to release more footage.
