Today being the 4th, I must have been procrastinating.
How that for an excuse of being late.
I hope that your Christmas Day brings you whatever you wish for.

How this year flew, we wish we weren't in Iraq.
On the 1st of this month, we lost ten Marines and 11 were wound in Iraq.
What a Christmas gift for some families throughout the USA.
I'm sure things will be hairy up to the 15 of December, when there will be elections in Iraq.
Well death strikes close to home.
As I was typing this I noticed a flashing red light coming through my window.
I went up front to check, across the street, I could see the legs of this elderly lady showing through a door with a ramp, she must have past during the night.
I pray that God will let her Rest in Peace.
Since we moved here, several have died in that same house.
I wonder why?
One thing this does, it educated the young of death.
I wish it wasn't so, but that life.
One last thing before I close,
HAPPY NEW YEAR in 2006
Well after that I close this month blog.

Semper Fidelis
Ricardo
