From our Public Affairs office....
The United States is changing the color of food ration packets it is dropping in Afghanistan because they are the same color -- yellow -- as unexploded cluster bombs. Gen. Richard Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said the United States will change the color of the food packets to blue.

    Perhaps these confused people are some of the foreign nationals who voted in Florida during the presidential election.

    Saxon you are right. The Christmas date was set by the early church to compete with the pagan ritual of saturnalia, which was a celebration if the winter solstice. As it turned out they got the date wrong by four days.
    So many guns to buy. So little money.

    Well, back to the subject ... I guess if we're going to the expence of dropping them, it would be best if they were eaten ...
