I guess the Hawks can sleep well, the southern oil fields are under coalition control.

I'm the absence of any Canadians to bomb, american patriot batteries are taking target practice on the british. Plus look at all those helicopters going down.....and not one had a maple leaf on the side.

i'd be just as uncomfortable as are we with so much power getting concentrated in so few Washington hands

Absolutely....it would be much better to support free enterprise and let the french and russians keep selling weapons to Saddam Hussein and other like humanitarians. Perhaps we could get in on the act and send over a few missile components made with from softwood....now wouldn't that teach those nasty Americans a lesson

I am so proud of voting for Bush and his cabinet.. One of the reasons I voted for him was to get his proposed cabinet in place.. The other group did nothing.. stood up for nothing.. Sorry to disagree. Notice Bush has 75% approval rating again on the war in the U.S. Wonder where these demonstrators are coming from.. You ask them about Iraq, the people suffering,, etc they do not have any answers, they are totally uninformed and follow a no war at any cost... One guy yesterday,, we should not go to war with Iraq. until we have another 9/11... Oh my God...

Hockey chairs.. they were selling the chairs from Boston Garden before they tore it down... and Philadelphia Eagles had a huge police force at the last game before moving to new stadium to make sure the fans didn't tear them up (unbolt the chairs and take them home).

Hockey games are very emotional.. I just loved them as a kid and young adult.. Then they got too expensive, like most sports, and play to the corp. season ticket holders.. It would be nice if they kept a few thousand seats reasonable for hockey fans.

ps Gump Worsley goalie for NyRangers got drunk as a skunk before game time... Days before goalie masks.. g

pps ny fans.. they are rough.. I just moved to ny from Boston and my office staff wouldn't let me join them at a ny yankees game and boston red sox game.. I mean about 12 guys going down and they said they didn't feel they could protect me if I was routing for Boston in Yankee Stadium..
another time I had several tickets in Philly for sixers and celtics in 1982 playoffs. Had my boss come down and join us for the game from Ny.. We had to shut him up he almost got into a couple of fights routing for Celtics. I just kept shut.. It was unbelieveable.. Loud.. close game.. exciting.. and I am not big on basketball fan... so as fans go we get all kinds , some look for fights,, too much booze imo.
