Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help!

To all who helped this get started and keep it running, 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, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, Fledermaus for his 15 minutes of fame, and, of course, Belly Girl...

That's not Acmed. It's Yakkov Smirnoff, the Russian comedian

Oh, it's our Spanish reporter, Pepe.

A heart attack? Don't do those. They aren't good for you.

One of the guys at my Bible Study this AM said he woke up with heartburn. I jumped all over him.

NTV is doing the reuters news feed loop which showed the Iraqi's firing their 57mm AA guns in the air.... and chanting..... lot of targhet aquisition going on there..... I believe those were either F14s or F15s that Achmed zoomed in on.... I'm leaning towards F14s because of the pivot wing design.... I don't know how to post picts from other websites yet but i'm learning

I hope so--and I hope your son is safe. Major Garrett is reporting from the Pentagon about it.

When my friend's husband was in Vietnam, she didn't watch the news for 14 months. He came back safely.
