May I offer a special prayer for the three soldiers at the checkpoint who moved forward to help a screaming pregnant woman.

There are really no words to describe the barbarism of the regime.

The regime that Senator Kerry compared to our own.

And I could never leave! its a good life raising a family in Alaska, gives us fortitude. Just that winter is too long,6 months or true winter, heck our lakes are still right now frozen over, its barely 40 for the daily high temps, and this winter was WAY too warm, global warming I guess.

Bloody hell, I want the info ASAP. What the hell does he mean by non-conventional weapons? They would be stupid to do that. I don't think they would want to be glowing!

Joke for the day...

Once upon a time (allegedly) in a nice little forest, there lived an orphaned bunny and an orphaned snake. By a surprising coincidence, both were blind from birth.

One day, the bunny was hopping through the forest, and the snake was slithering through the forest, when the bunny tripped over the snake and fell down. This, of course, knocked the snake about quite a bit.

"Oh, my," said the bunny, "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I've been blind since birth, so, I can't see where I'm going. In fact, since I'm also an orphan, I don't even know what I am."

"It's quite OK," replied the snake. "Actually, my story is much the same as yours. I, too, have been blind since birth, and also never knew my mother. Tell you what, maybe I could slither all over you, and work out what you are, so at least you'll have that going for you."

"Oh, that would be wonderful" replied the bunny. So the snake slithered all over the bunny, and said, "Well, you're covered with soft fur; you have really long ears; your nose twitches; and you have a soft cottony tail. I'd say that you must be a bunny rabbit."

"Oh, thank you! Thank you," cried the bunny, in obvious excitement.

The bunny suggested to the snake, "Maybe I could feel you all over with my paw, and help you the same way that you've helped me."

So the bunny felt the snake all over, and remarked, "Well, you're smooth and slippery, and you have a forked tongue, no backbone and no balls.

I'd say you must be French.

Oh did I say that I'm 21 tomorrow?

Not that I saw, so happy birthday early! 21 is the legal drinking age in the US (the UK doesn't have one, do they?) so I'll do a shot for you when I get home from work tonight.
