I have just found out that my mother, who is a Staff Seargent in the US Army, has just been activated to go to Iraq for 516 days. She is leaving on Friday. This makes me a very very very sad panda.
Wow, what are you gonna do since you’re living with your mom and going to school?
I hope she’s gonna be alright.
A good friend of mine in the airforce is also going to Iraq soon (sharkiller, some here might know him). Hopefully Smee, your mom won’t be in Iraq the whole 516 days. If Kerry becomes president in November, there’ll be a severe reduction of US troops in Iraq I’m sure.
As soon as the iraqi people get their thumbs out of their bums, i’m sure they’ll kick us out too.
It’s nice to think we’ll ever be out of Iraq, isn’t it? But the best we’ll be getting is maybe we’ll have a little help from other countries – countries with actual trained militaries.
we’re still not out of japan…
Japan was far naughtier, and more dangerous, than Iraq ever dreamed of being.
Yep. I remember Sharki. Nice guy.
Chris - I will still be living here and still be going to school. We are sharing a bank account, so I will have the necessary fundage to do the aformentioned things.
Hopefully she’ll be back soon. What exactly will she be doing?
If TV has taught me anything, she’ll be running arround with a huge backpack on, shooting randomly with automatic weapons, and making people do pushups.
No bloody clue. Something classified apparently, as she refuses to tell me.
[size=1]SHE IS AN ASSASSIN[/size]
Your mum sounds cool. My mum just yells at me, which is why I never see her.
You serious about the assassin line?
He’d tell you, but then… well, you know. Since technically we’re not supposed to have assassins, I’d guess the official line is “no”.
[size=1]Just between you and me, though, you want to know how Reagan really died?[/size]
Smee: how is your mom? has she written you?
I’m always interested, KBV, especially in the greatest President of the last 50 years.
Apparently you forgot President Kangaroo.
Tough on crime!
No, the statistics indicate that Reagan was even superior to the glorious Kangaroo.
Biut… Reagon’s dead.
Though, Reagan’s son was a presenter of UK childrens TV in the early 90’s…
LONG LIVE RRAGAN (and the cold war mentality)!
