Glad to see you back.
Hope to read about your impressions from Iraq at some point.
Merry Christmas.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

I am a Special Warfare Boat Operator. I was with a Joint Special Operations Command task force. As such I can't really talk about anything for obvious reasons.

I will say however that I don't think we should be leaving so soon. They aren't quite there yet in terms of being able to support themselves. And I hate that more wasn't done to modernize their government and infrastructure. I wou;dn't be suprised to return there before too long.

Glad your back! I was just thinking today that it was this time 1967 that I returned from Viet Nam. Missed Tet Offensive by a couple of weeks, thank God.

So Ceallach, does the Archies' comic in your signature mean you've got a bit of a punk rock background?
