Riverbend has been blogging from Baghdad since 2003 and is finally leaving. Baghdad Burning is her blog title and she describes her blog thusly: Girl Blog from Iraq… let’s talk war, politics and occupation. Her subtitle is … I’ll meet you ’round the bend my friend, where hearts can heal and souls can mend… I particularly like that little poem. Here’s hoping she and her family can get out safely and find a place to stay.
"Do not go gentle into that good night. Blog, blog against the dying of the light"

Who me? Oh yes, I’m 78 going on …. and on and on.
The temp hit 80F today! OK, what’s that in Centigrade? Subtract 32 and multiply by 5/9, and get……… 26.7C. Good!
Thanks for your comment, Tisha. I noted you said you were good at math, so I bet you did that calc in yer head!

How can a bird thats born for joy sing for joy when caged I send my love and prayers and hope that she will have joy in her life And have never backed the thinking of the Western Warmongers

Let’s hope she and her family can get out of Iraq safely. Very, very dangerous. We’re lucky we’re not there, that’s for sure.
