Medals?

Here is the surest sign that this so called war is a public relations stunt. The reminds me of all the medals given out for the Grenada invasion to soldiers who never left Washington.

The Secretary of Defense Medal for the Defense of Freedom, Rumsfeld said. Purple Heart medals have traditionally been given to soldiers wounded or killed during wartime. Thursday's action marks the first time the medals have been given for an incident on American soil since World War II, Rumsfeld said. 'These assaults have brought the battlefield home to us,'' Rumsfeld said.

am waiting for the dust to settle, and details to emerge, before concentrating on new law enforcement proposals.

I completely agree. We can lose more than we can gain with emotional reactive measures for law enforcement. This [terrorism] is likely to be a very long term problem. Starting the ball rolling towards with decreasing civil liberties, that most likely will only affect the margins at best, isn't a great idea.

Soft shells should be light and crispy. Paper- shells, which are at a more advanced stage, are somewhat unpleasant in texture, but the soft shell should just add a little crunch......

I've asked those that love them at the table...are these good? It passes their test? So be it. I'll go for the Shrimp etoufe.
