Well, what profound thoughts can I pass on today?

An interesting phenomena regarding the "alleged beard". At church several folks made mention of the sprouts of hair I'm generously referring to as a beard. However at work today, my first day back since vacation, no one has said a word about it. Not sure how to take that...It could be that my co-workers see no reason in stating the obvious, "so you're growing a beard". Or perhaps it's not that obvious, which would be a bit embarassing since I've been growing it for nearly a week. Worse case scenario: They notice it, think it's so silly they figure it's best to say nothing.

My co-workers have never been known for mercy so that seems a bit of a stretch.

We've moved into Baghdad.... no gas attacks and the military is now indicating it doesn't expect any.

This WRITER could prepare us for them though.
