About me:
I'm a freelance writer working for The Washington Times, C-SPAN, BBC Radio and others. For most of 2005 I was in Iraq reporting on the conflict there. In 2006 I had two books published: a graphic novel memoir called WAR FIX (NBM, June) and a nonfiction book called ARMY 101 (University of South Carolina Press, December). I blog at War Is Boring. Check out my Flickr.
Who I'd like to meet:
Myself, from seven or eight years ago. I'd kick my ass.

Excellent Add David. We are everwhere. Your reader base has found you quickly even here! one of the last american heroes. I am slowly transcribing necessary files over from 360. 360 is so slow. Eventually I plan to span onto my own server when the money starts trickling in, but for now terrorism news is in MySpace. Thanks for your add. Max max1mos111@yahoo.com

Hi

Two questions:

1) Any word on getting to Somalia?

2) As far as C-Span goes, what do you think will be the legacy of Brian Lamb (I'm thinking national hero)?

Hey David

Good job on Washington Journal..
I liked when you said, "I think politics is boring"

I definitely look forward to seeing footage on Mogadishu and Somalia .. I've been working on a poetic project called wasteland and your coverage has certainly been an artistic source of inspiration.

Keep up the solid work
Randy Girard

A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?
Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp!
And surely I'll be mine!
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

We twa hae run about the braes
And pou'd the gowans fine.
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld lang syne.

We twa hae sported i' the burn,
From morning sun till dine,
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.

And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o' thine;
We'll tak' a right good willie-waught,,
For auld lang syne.~ Robert Burns
Scott

The next time you're in Kurdistan, pick me up a Kurdish flag patch and a pirated copy of The Fast & the Furious: Tokyo Drift.

And I hear Balad has a burgeoning mathrock scene; The Dead Links are supposed to sound like a cross between Slint and Don Caballero. You might want to check them out.

In response to the request posted below: It is a little known fact that David Axe has no teeth. In late 2005, he had them surgically replaced with bullets (before that, of course, he had a firing mechanism installed in his jaw). He doesn't like to show this strange device off, however, because he has sworn to himself that he will kill anyone who looks into his semi-automatic maw.
