Ok, since Kiki has now officially "gone away" I've decided to change the the title of this thread. Hopefully she won't mind that I've done a pun on the old Marines slogan since she's in the Army, but oh well, if she does, what is she gonna do about it from way over there. (Well, I mean BESIDES aiming a Patriot at my butt! LOL!) Anyway, thought you might like to hear how she's doing. Got a couple of emails from her........... Okay living conditions...well they leave alot to be desired... we stay in large (NO AC havin') tents. It is almost unbearable to sleep in there during the day because the heat makes you miserable. They have a Trailer that has showers...the males have posted hours and so do we..but it is filthy..but running water is a luxury(sp)so go figure. They have a dining facility but it is like a freakin' mile away and the line is like 2 hrs long...so we eat on snacks we bought..they do have a PX(store) that sells food and comfort items. The lines here are outrageous..for px, phone, dining facility(dfac)...so mostly I go to work, and to the tent with my friend. They have a Large tent with weights. But who wants to pump Iron in a swealtering tent...NOT MEEEEE!!! Oh they have a Barber shop and a sub sandwich shop. But again we leave here and head north in a few days. So thats gonna wrap it up for news from the front. Oh and I never leave home without my gas mask!!!!!! The "War" may be over but there is still a threat here...More........ It really sucks out here. Keeping clean is near impossible. ...I don't get alot of time to read the board so I have only looked at a few threads. I looked at my going away party and noticed Sukka was talking work...so I was teasing Aba and told him not to have work related discussions on my party page ha ha ha. I was joking though. I saw what you posted about MRE's. I will tell you they have come along way since I first joined the Army(those ones were gross...insert vomit smiley) The line for the dining facility(dfac) is so long..and a million miles away that Mre's are becoming quite popular. I hope everyone if doing fine. Tell your Martha Stewert friend we had another sand storm this morning. The only good thing about that is the dusty wind keeps the sweltering heat down. I don't know what is worse.

:(Hello Kiki! We miss you.... but we're proud of what you're doing. You are making a great sacrifice for all of us. May God watch over you and all the other soldiers who are fighting or helping to protect our freedom. Whether we agree with Mr. Bush's policies or not, we all support our troops wholeheartedly. 2-) Hurry back to us, Kiki!

You must have misread the score Ivory. The only butt kicking was done by the big guy. But we still miss her greatly. She's over there eating dust for us so the least we could do is get her a decent meal when she gets back! What do you say? ;D ;D ;D
