That was a great view of the 100 mile run over the desert in a Hummer. Reminds me of being the last dog in a team in the Iditarod during a white out. You can see the first guy in line's got one (don't ask one what), but the view never changes and if you turn left or right there is no view at all. Some of the media coverage is a bit better than endless speculation. I also get a kick out of the technology that can bring me nearly perfect live shots of network talent racing across the desert. But it does lose a little something when you find out that instead of the tip of the spear, your anchor is perched on a tank recovery vehicle, the armored equivalent of a caboose. The embeds also give us what is sure to be a meme for this war: reporters in badass sunglasses. But if someone says "shock and awe" one more goddamned time..<<<<<
