Take a moment to look at these. I found my cam isnt much good for anything but close up's But these are ok.

Yahoo Buzz

I spend way too much time on Buzz. But it's interesting and while you do meet some really odd people , you can also meet some nice ones.

First rule of the Buzz:

If they cant attack your logic.... they attack your spelling.

Happy July 4th

A lot of people really dont understand the meaning the 4th of july. Oh sure we got picnics and got fireworks and some folks just drink too much.

Take a moment and think of those serving our nation and those who have served.

Afghanistan

Its been reported that a soldier is missing and presumed to be a pow of the taliban.

Its always terrible to lose someone this way. But after my 6 years in the US Navy.... like most military personal you hope for the best and try not to get too over confident. But we know going in to it there is a chance that we may be killed or pow'ed. Being a pow to the taliban is a lot like being dead and I find myself hoping this soldier is either rescued very very quicky or already gone to his fidlers green. Im not heartless I just dont want anyone to be a pow to the taliban.

Why are are we in afghanistan?

Ask rather "Why are we still in afghanistan?". While I and many are far from forgetting the event's of 9-11 or the hunt for bin laden , things are a bit cloudy about the "why".

Are we there to take out or at least hurt the Taliban?

If this isnt good enough for you... are we trying to help a large group of people oppressed by a group of terrorists?

Is this going to work? I dont know.. but maybe we can get these people on the road to being able to fight for themselves. Freedom isnt just about posting in yahoo its also about having the the choice and perhaps the option of being able to defend or fight for the freedom of one's self or family.

Is this a bit clearer for you?
