I don't have to have one of those "Made in China" We Support our troops magnet. People shouldn't get in my face about my anti-war stance. I protested Vietnam and I protest this war. I have "Skin in the Game" and want him home safe sound and in one piece.

FYI, we heard from the FRG this a.m. Bravo made it out of Iraq and will board a plane today for the States.

As the readership grew with my blog sometimes I felt like just not posting. Lately finding "inspiration" to talk about going out and doing the same thing over and over is hard. But then I worry that if I go too long, then people may worry, especially when in Iraq. So I tend to not cross the 1 Week Barrier. There are times when its hard, but I have found writing to be a release for me, so it helps.Eddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09419467264399843307noreply@blogger.com
