Good evening, everybody!

Shoot, I was on in time to be top ten, but I got caught up in looking for discount tickets to Dorney Park in Allentown, PA. (and then there were the yahoo maps . . . )

Come on in and check out these quotes from General Patton. Which one is your fave?

This one: "A man must know his destiny… if he does not recognize it, then he is lost. By this I mean, once, twice, or at the very most, three times, fate will reach out and tap a man on the shoulder… if he has the imagination, he will turn around and fate will point out to him what fork in the road he should take, if he has the guts, he will take it."

Fate has already tapped me on the shoulder twice. I hope I get third chance, and recognize it this time when it happens.

Events like this are valuable to countering the intimidation campaign being waged by the insurgency. Every positive interaction with the Iraqi people is a success for Coalition Forces, and leads to more people taking sides against the terrorists. Photo by: Cpl. Bryce Muhlenberg
