The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency

If they are relevent comments, and not something that's going to start a flame war, or insult somebody, or make people respond... You get the idea

Blackhawks are primarily evacuation and insertion.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Report by Reuters:
========================================
SOUTHERN IRAQ - Charred Iraqi corpses smolder in burned-out trucks. Black smoke hangs over bombed cities where U.S. troops battle Iraqi soldiers. Youths greet British tanks with smiles, then sneer when they have passed.

Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

Interesting that a Patriot Support unit was ambushed at Nasariyeh - It indicates how fast the operation is proceeding if Patriot units are already moving that far into South-Central Iraq.To La Fayette, as fine a gentleman as ever trod the Halls of Apolyton

Some alternative sources...
Iran's news agency reports Shiite resistance to Hussein forces in Najaf, a Shiite holy city outside of which there was heavy fighting today.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Iran's news agency reports that the missiles that hit Iran yesterday were not Tomahawks, as previously suggested, but rather Iraqi missiles. Iraq's ambassador given a dressing down.
