First off I don't believe you. Frankly, I don't give a sh*t if you believe me or not. I don't need to prove anything to you. Second, if on the off chance you were there you were probably working for Halliburton and I am sure that you spent a lot of time outside the Green Zone trying to get your ass shot off conversing with the masses. Bhhawwwk.. BZZZZZ... Wrong Answer on the first.. But I will admit that they wouldn't let me out of my cage as often as I would have liked. Just wasn't in my job description. But I worked with a large group of translators and interpreters from all over the Mid-East, including many of those who speak Iraqi dialect. It made for some very interesting conversations, especially when they introduced me to their Iraqi friends. But most of the folks I directly supported were "out and about" on a daily basis. And I've got some pretty good photos of Baghdad and the date palm groves between the Tigris and Euphrates. So tell us Darren... How much time have YOU spent in the Arab world? Hawk
