A very interesting article IMHO on BBC explaining why the iraqui people celebrate the way they do (concerning the US trops arrival) . http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2934011.stm[^] Cheers,Joao Vaz And if your dream is to care for your family, to put food on the table, to provide them with an education and a good home, then maybe suffering through an endless, pointless, boring job will seem to have purpose. And you will realize how even a rock can change the world, simply by remaining obstinately stationary.-Shog9 Remember just because a good thing comes to an end, doesn't mean that the next one can't be better.-Chris Meech

It's much better than the term "embedded," though. I'm tired of hearing about embedded reporters. That must be a lousy job, like having a career as a suppository. - Roger Wright

"Shoes are used to beat servants, thieves, prostitutes; it indicates servility" Ahhh Civilisation.... X| Dave Huff Igor would you give me a hand with the bags? Certainly - you take the blonde and I'll take the one in the turban!
