Bored?
Here is some really good reading you can do if you are so inclined. The first is from a female "civilian" who traveled to Iraq to see for herself the conditions. She's got big balls hehe good reading though

http://literalthoughts.blogspot.com/...aq-series.html

Next is Michael Yon who is embedded with Deuce Four..not just for a couple of weeks this guy has been with them for sometime so he is quite interesting to read. The pictures are outstanding...

http://michaelyon.blogspot.com/

Just want to point out i'm not posting this as a debate about the war, media tendencies (liberal, repub), who likes cats, who likes dogs whatever. It's purely about a point of view from one single person in the situation, and it makes for one hell of a read. Especially Mr. Yon's articles....good stuff

Heh, medals from a game seem even more trivial after reading the stuff by Yon, the pictures that he took while running are amazing.

The blog from Kerry was good but ended to quick, I will be checking back for more from both of those sites. Thanks for the links DT.
