LOL

You're practically campsite buddies!

Yes, but I moved out of California about two years before he moved there. :D

So it really depends on how broadly you define "campsite?" :D

or how you define "buddies" :D

Well, it would depend on if we're using a Pixies definition of "buddies," wouldn't it? :D

De Camptown ladies sing this song,
Doo-da, Doo-da
De Camptown racetrack's two miles long
Oh, de doo-da day.
Chorus:
G'wine to run all night
G'wine to run all day
I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bet on the gray.

2. Oh, de long tailed filly and de big black horse,
Doo-da, Doo-da
Come to a mud hole and dey all cut across,
Oh, de doo-da day.
Chorus:

3. I went down South with my hat caved in,
Doo-da, Doo-da
I came back North with a pocket full of tin.
Oh, de doo-da day.
Chorus:

Did you know that today ... 10/1 ... is the first day of school for all the Iraqi kids?

No, I didn't, DB. Thanks!

How in the heck did you discover that, DB?

It was on the news. For a change they said something other than counting the number killed. I like hearing some of the positive things going on that are seldom reported. They made the point that 1,000 schools have been refurbished and cleaned up and reopened. The schools had been allowed to be run down under Saddam and many rooms used to store weapons and ammo. I like the new use better.

Wow! that's really neat for the kids! How long has it been since school was going full force?

Order! Order! How am I supposed to ignore this thread if it gets into really interesting subjects like education in Iraq?

Yes, DB...that was out of line.

I can't possibly ignore that Av of yours WildIrish!!

Try turning the other cheek. ha ha
