Ah, the bliss of noon in Kuwait. It's like watching grass grow here; no Blogs, no replies (constructive or otherwise), only the sound of the sand hitting my window. Of course I miss the intelligent discourse and sometimes pedantic replies, but the USA is sleeping. The USA is sleeping because of the eight years of administrative cacophony that we have experienced from the inept handling of our resources, human and natural. But as Admiral Yamamoto said after the attack on Pearl Harbor, "I'm afraid we have awakened a sleeping giant and filled it with terrible resolve." We are about to awaken, as a nation, and once again we will be filled with a resolve; a resolve to muster our forces to defeat this monster that has stolen our spirit, sold our jobs, ruined our economy, and sent our loved-ones to war. This is your 6AM wake-up call!

You know the trolls only come out at night, it's too early for them :)

I've been busy reading and replying to pm's this morning so haven't seen what anyone's been saying. I noticed it was really, really quiet this morning. It got really quiet kind of early last night too. It's kinda eerie LOL, like the calm before the storm. I think we may be in for it this weekend, we'll see.

It's nice seeing a post from you, I usually only see you in reply land. You still in that damn sand storm? I could ship you some window wipes and a face mask so you can run out and wipe your windows if that would help. ; P

A. I'm too old to be on the 'Front Lines" I was there in Berlin when the wall went up.

B. The other boys (and girls) in Kuwait are enjoying the same bliss, unfortunately theirs will end soon.

C. 30 years; I may have been blinded by the sand.

D. If you were here, you'd want to back in the USA, sad or not: It's still the greatest country in the world, and I've seen many!
