Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - 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 brief description of what the graphic is would help!  If you post graphics, please "size" them so that our browsers continue to load the rest of the thread!

I read about that, but I thought it was a bigger paper.

A week to get an engagement ring? I think that soldier sold her a bill of goods.

Sorry, but I won't take you there. I'd fix you dinner and offer you a glass of wine, but no snake hunting for me.

I might take you up on dinner and wine, but I haven't hunted snakes in 30 years. I did a lot of things back then that wouldn't be nearly as much fun today.

Lots of good war stories to shock and awe my kids, and all their friends are scared to death of me (that's not a bad thing ;-), but I'm about as laid-back as your old hippie neighbor these days!

'Nite, Vet. Set a watch...

[Cate]

This is so incredibly funny.... my neighbors name is really Bob.... I will never look at him in the same way again...hhhahhaahhah.

[umbagi]

:-)

Not quite that laid back. Couple of beers and a Tito's works for me...

[JLS]

Night.

[TheLion]

That map is interesting. Especially the layout of the deployment. Anyone ever play Risk? We used to play this alot in the late 70's and early 80's. This map reminded me of that.
