When I meet the people here I find them to friendly and very curious about us. The kids here almost always know at least a little English and sometimes they even help translate for the adults. One kid even started doing impressions of Michael Jackson and others for our entertainment. When I talk with people here in Iraq they seem to ask a lot of questions about America and about religion. It would seem that a lot of the things that we take for granted in America they find amazing. Traffic here is not what it is in Walla Walla, Washington or North Carolina. There is congestion like in Seattle but the driving here I think is much more aggressive. I am not sure but I do not think that there are laws about what makes a car road worthy or not. The cars on the road range all areas from very reliable looking to not so much. I have seen several folks riding in the back of cars, with the trunk open of course. This I find very odd. Hitching a ride here means you take any space available. "This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it, or exercise their revolutionary right to overthrow it." - Abraham Lincoln
