We're coming up on five years. I realized that when i just up and randomly decided to look at this board to see how it was. I think everyone should think back to 2003, and the years following.
Hell, just scroll down on the Iraq board and look at the activity and the inactivity you can see, the way the threads pile up and taper off, all the talking we all did.
I just feel it's a crazy paradox, looking at this "discussion" board and realizing that it's been a positive thing that the planet is no longer "discussing" this war as frequently as it once did. Things have changed - but it's not like there's ever not been ample reason to continue talking. It's not like 140,000 of our people over there ever just went away, they've always been there, rotating in and out for quite a long time now...
I wonder where we are now. Just a thought... |
