#1 Good for you, Bobby. I meant to post this yesterday, with snarky comments, but the crush of business made me forget. A little excitement in the IZ last night, as apparently two 122-mm rockets made their appearance. I heard the whoosh of one travelling overhead and saw the flash at impact; the other apparently didn't leave a crater that anyone's found yet. I prefer to interpret the display as celebratory fire in honor of Iraqis sitting around and hashing out differences peacefully ....

#2 Verlaine--Feel free to send me your APO and a wish list if you need some goodies sent over. I have a few things stashed away for care packages, but my friends and relatives that were over there are all stateside now.

#3 Verlaine - what kind of reading material do you (or others) like? I've got some paperback mysteries I've finished with - be glad to send them along. Anything else you all need?

Send me an e-mail too when you respond to Dar - my "care package" receiver is back stateside so I'm free to fund another. Might as well be a Rantburger. :-D

Mikey Moore's probably grieving the most right about now. Driver was probably just driving to a kite flying festival.
