Unfortunately, the fashionable dress for Iraq is BDU, body armor and combat helmut.
Still, the spirit of renewal prevails for Christian and non-Christian alike every where.

Mr. Hemphill wearing an Easter Bonnet in Iraq. Now there is a thought.

Mark … IRAQ? … Are you suicidal or what? … Now that IS controversial, and perfect for keeping on topic (sort of).

Hey Mark, what are you doing in Iraq, are you serving in our armed forces or what? If so, GOD BLESS AND KEEP SAFE!

p.s. - whats an easter bonnet?

You buy a silly looking hat, cut holes in the top for ears, stick dead flowers on it and wear it in the Easter Parade. Then throw it in the closet and never wear it again!

Happy Easter to all and greeting to Hemphill of Iraq.

Where ever there is a railroad to rebuild, he'll be there.

Great to hear from Mark! And apparently he's right here in Philadelphia, the cradle of civilization.
Happy Easter, where applicable.

Thank you Mookie, for wishing all of us a "Happy Sunday March 27, 2005".
Know you will look very lovely in your bonnet Sunday. I don't have one; as
a matter of fact, I haven't had an E-----bonnet for about 25 years, I guess.
Unless, of course, you would want to count my cowboy(girl) hat as one

May you and driver have a Happy Sunday March 27, 2005, and have a great
weekend.

Happy Sunday March 27, 2005.

There! Is that PC enough for everyone?

Going to wear my bonnet that day. Not too many of us on the forum can say that!
