Iraq Update
Alright, a little update from your Iraq News Anchor. Not quite there yet but I'm close. I'm in Kuwait. Can't really talk about where I'm going yet. Security risks and all. We are waiting on a plane though. Not much going on. Trying to get over the jet lag. It's bad after an 18 hour flight. It's hot today. 117 is what was posted. I'll keep you all informed as it goes along.

My friend Jody just got called up. She leaves today. She has a couple of training stops and then on to either Kuwait or Iraq, they wont tell her yet. A year and a half. sucks.

Germany and Kuwait aren't bad. I've been to both breifly. I'm excited to get over to Iraq though. Start doing something. I want my tank back. :) I'm tired of just sitting around in Kuwait. Oh well. Hurry up and wait I guess. That just gives me more time to write on here.

Ya, meanwhile we'll be back here trying to bring you home by staging anti-war rallies, and bitching about Bush and his mis-handling of the Iraq war.
It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

I don't know about the whole Anti-War rallies but you do what you gotta do. If you really want to bring us home, send us gift packages. Those help alot. There are alot of programs such as adopt a platoon where people and communities can get together and send packages. They help out alot.

Ok, update number two. Big stuff just went down. If anyone watches CNN you may have seen my tank. It's named Black Plague and it's painted on the gun tube. I'm sure you can look it up cause I can't really talk about it. Al Anbar province. Karabala and Husaba. It's been real busy but I think it's gonna calm down in this part of town. It's getting real cold. It's weird cause it's as cold as winter in Utah but there is not even a hint of snow. Thats about all I got for now.
