Its official! We can go home now!
Why, you might ask?

Because its finally happened. This place has frozen over.

Its snowing in Baghdad.

That's got to be enough of an omen. If _this_ place freezing over isn't a sign of something, I don't know what is.

Day 308

No, I believe the official sign of Hell freezing over is if it snows in Baghdad AND the Jets win the Superbowl. Either one's just half a miracle.

No, the miracle there would be the Browns winning the SuperBowl. That, or it would be a sign of the end of the world.

"For a couple of hours anyway, a city where mortar shells routinely zoom across to the Green Zone became united as one big White Zone. As of late afternoon, there were no reports of violence. The snow showed no favoritism as it fell faintly on neighborhoods Shiite and Sunni alike..."

*laughs* That was my first comment when I head about snow in Baghdad. "Next thing you know, pigs will fly, and we'll get out of the giant sandpit."

I meant high school girl. Last I checked I passed that one four years ago now.
