I'd hope everyone would meet on Duval in Key West for a few beers, or kegs.

If I'm reading correctly, he's saying that if it was on TV, he did not see it. He just says there was a meeting, did not specify that the "meeting" was on TV, just in Baghdad. Just my 2 cents. Peace. 9:47 AM [Nighthk11] If Maliki did make an announcement on Iraqi TV about shibibi doing the RV ASAP- I cannot find it- does not matter- There was a meeting over a month ago in Baghdad wherein shibibi and saleh did show the new bills and announce the rate they expected $3.10-$3.20 Read more:

Amen BanG!

I'd be happy for them to just do it already, regardless of the rate. My assumption is that over time, it would just increase. Shabbs, you have the con!

My brother has been in since 05'. He didn't tell me about the investment until this Feb, as he figures one quack in the family's enough. I just your avg Joe, but seems like everything that they need to do is lining up. But here again, why freak over something we have no control of. Of course I'll partake in a nice shot of Jaeger when it does RV! Come on Shabs, lucky 3!

Looks like Tony Blair is going. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-182610/Tony-Blair-going-Iraq.html Prime Minister Tony Blair is to visit Iraq to thank the British troops there personally. Mr Blair made his announcement at the start of a visit to the Gulf but gave no details of when his visit would take place. It is expected within the next 48 hours. Mr Blair, asked if the visit to Iraq was important for him personally, said: "Yes, it is important. But it's most important to thank the troops on behalf of the country because this was, more than any other conflict in recent times, this was a very, very tough conflict. "And people risked their lives, in some cases lost their lives, and so it's right that I go there and I see the troops there and thank them personally and thank them personally out in the theatre." Mr Blair went on: "I want to see the British troops to thank them for their magnificent performance during the Gulf conflict." He also said he would be having talks with Britain's new representative in Iraq, John Sawers. He said he wanted to discuss with the Kuwaiti leadership the prospects for the region generally and to thank them for their help during the conflict. Asked directly if there was an element of triumphalism in his visit, Mr Blair replied: "No. It's very much one of thanks for the troops who are there still in difficult circumstances, difficult physical circumstances for them, and doing a very good job."

Regardless of when it happens, I think about all the people that will say to you, "why didn't you tell me about the dinar"? Who know's when it'll happen, but I'm just thankful I have a hand in the game.
