Sad news from Iraq this morning.

Time to finish this once and for all.


I understand they were headed for R and R.
UNfortunately this is going to be a long war.

Hello manna.

[Valin]

So in other words it's a little bigger than a Pipper Cub?

[SAMWolf]

I didn't lose you, you lost me I knew where I was.

[SAMWolf]

Hi Manna!

Even Hummer's wave for Manna. :-)

[Victoria Delsoul]

Good Sunday everyone.

[snippy_about_it]

Good afternoon Victoria.

I didn't lose you, you lost me I knew where I was.

Very funny!! ha ha!

Good pictures Matt. Seemms every hundred years or so we have to stop them from trying to erase our civilizatioon and replace it with theirs.

In the 1800's the U.S. was the only country that decided to quit paying bribes to the Barbary Pirates and fight them. Typically france and most of the other European nations just paid them off.

[SAMWolf]

Good quotre by the Indian leaders.

The record of "treaties" between the United States and any of the Indian Nations is abysmal. I don't think we kept even one of them. Our treatment of the Indian Nations is a black mark on this country's history.

[SAMWolf]

I read that they were on their way to R & R. What ticks me off is that all last week we had warnings of something like this coming.

[SAMWolf]

LOL! I think a Piper Cub could use the Spruce Goose as a landing field.

[SAMWolf]

Afternoon Victoria.

Typical Sunday here, had to give up the machine to the rest of the family. Arrrgh. Gotta get more than one Internet connection.!!

[SpookBrat]

Thanks for the history today. I think if a cow came into my camp, I would have eaten too.

Prayers of comfort for our grieving families this sad day. It sure is hard news to take.

Thanks Spooky, good song. Sad day indeed.

Thank you Matt. Don't worry so much about the language, you do a wonderful job and we know what you mean. Thank you so much for your support and caring.

[SAMWolf]

Good afternoon Spooky. DON't worry about the song. It's still good.
