later peeps

You all have probably heard that the U.S. has begun to deploy many more troops to the middle east this past week. It looks like that's gonna have a rather direct impact on me.

So you'll prolly see a lot less of me for quite a while. It doesn't mean I love ya any less though.

Good Luck, Best Wishes, and Thank You

I did hear about the deployment of troops to the Middle East, and thought immediately about my brother who's been hinting around for a while that he may be one of the 'lucky' ones to go. (His emphasis, not mine.) I also thought about everyone else who may be affected.

If you're pulled to go, I wish you the best of luck, and thank you for the service that you're doing for the folks you're leaving behind.

Thank you for your service Tob. I will be watching over the campaign and sending angels normally assigned to domestic work to Iraq. Best wishes.

Silly infidel. I will not be killed, the US will remove me from power and I will become a CIA consultant. My head, will remain in my ass but I will then be on the US CIA payroll. I should fit right in, there are many members or your government with their heads up their asses.

Who knows, I might even run for Hillary's vacant seat after she wins the presidency in 04. How do you like me now?

Good luck Tob. I don't agree with the war, unless I can take some kind of political credit of course. We all know this is all about oil and creating an American empire.

The unintended benefit will be having Saddam emerge as a leader in the Democratic party.

Did I ever tell you I invented the internet?

How confident are you in your salvation Saddam? I wouldnt get too cocky, if I can get George into the White House, what makes you think I cant "make you wake up dead"?

I've been preparing my entry list for January. There is no "Saddam" on it. Glad you are accustomed to high temp environments

Good Luck Tob

Keep your head down, and don't show the soles of your feet to anybody. Apparently this upsets folks over there ...

Since this is modern, warfare, you may have internet access. If not, I'm sure you'll find some clever way to rig it ...

Keep us updated if at all possible. Good luck, buddy.

Thanks for all the well-wishes and guest appearences. I have no clue right now what we'll be assigned to do; I'll hopefully know much more this week. Right now my main concern is whether I'll get to go to my New Year's Eve party.

Al Gore never claimed he invented the Internet. Jesus fucking Christ, look it up. Stop perpetuating lies.

Hmm.. perhaps I was a bit rude. I'm sorry. :) It's just one of those things that bothers me.

( Al starts speaking as his eyes are crossed)

I dont know who you were thinking of but I did invent the internet. And the glow in the dark condom.

Anyway, thanks for trying to defend me Juju.

(fills the bong....takes a hit) I forgot I had this bong until after I dropped out of the race.

Did you vote more for me.....or Willy? I thought for sure he'd be removed from office, so I stuck it out. They never liked us nor we them. I sure do miss the attention though. The liberal news always makes us look good. Even when we couldnt. Thanks for you opinion Dan!

im with you on this juju. im too fucking lazy to find out what he actually meant by that, but it certainly does not mean that he thinks he created it. taken in context, available here, its a bit clearer what he intended.

im no big fan of al gore (or politicians in general) but i do think it is unfair to twist his words like that. i was out for breakfast about a week ago and i heard these people in the table next to me who obviously knew nothing about computers or the internet making fun of how 'al gore created the internet' and it drove me nuts.

edit: changed link to something a bit less biased
edit again: i guess the new link isnt really 'in context', but you get my meaning.
