    I can see it now:
    "Today the Minister of information for Iraq stated that Coalition forces were sending in Ice Cream trucks into Baghdad armed with Patriot Missles disguised as Ice Cream bars."

    FoxNews so far has the most details....
    And I too got the same alert......

    The best part of the FoxNews article was where it talked about the lights/power going out. And that 15 minutes prior to that, there were three large explosions just outside of the city..... I'm thinking that they are trying to draw a connection between the explosions and the poower going out... if that's the case, that's one heckuva UPS they got going there!

    I think that after the war, were going to find out exactly how many of those "details" are true. Even with embedded journalists on the ground, they only have one point of view. Also, the whole story they tell rarely gets on the air. Journalists themselves complain about this.
    You just proved that sig advertisements work.
