Learning to play
I love my Daddy!
Daddy is impressed at how I can hold my head up on my own.
Wow, I wish I knew what they were saying to me... sounds like "yada, yada, yada!"
Ready for bed last night. I like the music!

Military Losses... must read...
This is interesting.........
Military Losses, 1980 thru 2006
Whatever your politics, however you lean, however you feel about the current
administration, this report should open some eyes.
Military losses, 1980 through 2006 (ttp://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/natsec/RL32492.pdf)
As tragic as the loss of any member of the US Armed Forces is, consider
the following statistics:
The annual fatalities of military members while actively serving in the armed forces from 1980 through 2006:
1980 .......... 2,392 (Carter Year)
1981 .......... 2,380 (Reagan Year)
1984 .......... 1,999 (Reagan Year)
1988 .......... 1,819 (Reagan Year)
1989 .......... 1,636 (George H W Year)
1990 .......... 1,508 (George H W Year)1991 .......... 1,787 (George H W Year)
1992 .......... 1,293 (George H W Year)
1993 .......... 1,213 ( Clinton Year)
1994 .......... 1,075 ( Clinton Year)
1995 .......... 2,465 ( Clinton Year)
1996 ......... . 2,318 ( Clinton Year)
1997 ............. 817 ( Clinton Year)
1998 .......... 2,252 ( Clinton Year)
1999 .......... 1,984 ( Clinton Year)

2002 .......... 1,007 (George W Year)
2003 .......... 1,410 (George W Year)
2004 .......... 1,887 (George W Year)
2005 ............. 919 (George W Year)
2006.............. 920 (George W Year)
2007............899 (George W Year)
George H W years (1989-1992): 6,224 deaths;Average of 1,556 per year --including Persian Gulf War (1991)
Clinton years (1993-2000): 14,107 deaths;
Average of 1,763 per year –Kosovo (1998—present), Somalia (1992-1995)
George W years (2001-2006): 7,932 deaths;
Average of 1,133 per year—including ALL of the Iraq War (2003-present), and ALL of Afghanistan (Operation Enduring Freedom, 2001-present)
If you are surprised when you look at these figures, so was I. These figures mean that the loss from the two latest conflicts in the Middle East are LESS than the loss of military personnel during Bill Clinton's presidency; when America wasn't even involved in a war!It surprised me too, so I went on line to find out what military actions we were in during Clinton 's presidency. Here is a web site I found that lists out those conflicts. (not war)
