"Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying
for his country. He won
it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country!" --
Gen. George S. Patton Jr.
God Speed our men and
women in battle!
"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with
talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated failures.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."
Calvin Coolidge

VIDEO - WEB HOT!
Troops in the Royal Dragoon Guards shot a video at their Al
Faw base in Iraq.
This clip has received an enormous amount of attention and actually
crashed
a few military servers as personnel passed the video around
via email. It's fabulous!

Tony Christie - Is This The Way To Amarillo lyrics
Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala
When
the day is dawning on a Texas Sunday morning
how I long to be there
with Marie who's waiting for me there
every lonely city where I hang my hat
ain't as half as pretty as where my baby's at
Is
this the way to Amarillo
every night I've been hugging my pillow
dreaming dreams of Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits
for me
show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
crying over Amarillo
and sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha
la la lala lalala Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala and Marie who waits for me
There's
a church bell ringing
hear the song of joy that it's singing
for the sweet Maria and the guy who's coming to see
her
just beyong the highway, there's an open plain
and it keeps me going through the wind and rain
Is
this the way to Amarillo
every night I've been hugging my pillow
dreaming dreams of Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits
for me
show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
crying over Amarillo
and sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha
la la lala lalala Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala and Marie who waits for me
