Default Iraq Update

Just wanted to pop and say "Hi" to all The Ifishers. I can't believe I have been over here for five months already. Time is sure going by in a hurry. This country, at least the part I'm in is a really pretty area. There are palm trees everywhere, green fields, all sorts of strange flowers, and some really nice people. Not everyone is nice, but quite a few are. The kids are both a real pain and yet very funny also. The other day I was asked to take this ladies kid back to the U.S. with me. Makes one feel strange to be asked this. Well I could go on for days, but it's just an update. Take care everyone and thank you all for the support you have shown ALL the troops.

To fish or not to fish?..... What a dumb question!

Thanks for your service and your sacrifice. I guess you're lucky with respect to your area of service. A buddy at work was just back on leave and couldn't find a single positive thing to say about where he is stationed.
