Face it. You'd be much better off ditching Dyson and signing up with a new name. And lose the 'tude before you come back.

Get used to disappointment, sport.

Oh, look! "Butthead" isn't taken.

Feel free to take it. It suits you far better than I.

You're welcome.

But someone needs to review her wardrobe closet.

Okay, I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking that.

Yes, there's a cretin here, but I fear you do not discern the true identity.

Watch, you'll be assumed to not want confirmation on this story, one way or the other.

Tony Snow said this was a SCUD missile. If I am not mistaken...it is an Surface To Air [anti-aircraft] missile.

...and we all know MD's are always right.

The ones that worked on me eight years ago were right. I bet my life on them and I won.

Would I bet my life on you? Guess.

I guess this means France now helps us out. So that means we REALLY win the war!!! How could be POSSIBLY win without France. And I guess their president admits that he was dumb.

Question: How well do biological weapons such as anthrax survive in a war environment?

The anthrax sent to the US senate survived quite well, which after all is a war environment these days. It was Dasholes office if I recall correctly.

So would I!
Unfortunately USA moronic pacifists appear (see CNN) to be carrying signs reading 'Cirac for President in 2004' does that qualify as treason in your books as it does on mine?

Scud missiles are Surface-to-Surface (sometimes called "Surface-to-Ground") missiles.

nah... there's lots of gram positive bacilli which are spore forming. You can't positively ID the bug without doing either micro bio lab studies or DNA PCR.

Good point... I'll bet they are immunized for anthrax.

I keep thinking like a civilian (i.e. no vaccines available).

Yes! Troops are vaccinated for anthrax and smallpox. My husband included.

Smallpox innoculation site = very unappealing. Bleah!

I'll wager printed in English on the envelope are the words "POWDERED BABY FORMULA FROM FACTORY".

LOL!! Show it to Peter Arnett and he'll believe it!

I didn't make my point well, I guess. I was not saying that this would "positively ID the bug"- only that it might show that there was in fact no "bug" there, and the troops could relax a little (and possibly not be quick on the trigger on some poor joker who just wants to surrender...)
