The elections are over and I'm still not sure who was elected. Not that it really effects us here. We started the month of Ramadan for all the Muslims here. I don't really know too much about the holiday other than they work even less than usual and they can't eat during the day. Apparently they're supposed to be fasting in order to feel like starving people, but they just eat a lot of food at night.
Still the same here, only 5 more months until I go to Australia. I found out today that the Army split the time we've been in Iraq into campaigns. When I was there I was apparently involved in two campaigns, so I get to put on two campaign stars on my Iraq ribbon. They really don't matter except for promotion points. Which really doesn't matter to me because I'm not reenlisting. I'm not even sure why I put this in, other than I don't have much else to say.

That reminds me of a song called ram dama ding dong by the Edsels which came out in the late '50s. Actually I think it was rama lama ding dong or mabe lama rama or whatever. It had a good beat but the lyrics where meaningless. Nothing to do with Ramadan, though.

Yo ryan! I think missed the last time you called, sorry about that. Sounds like your getting a nice collection of medals! I just started school today, other than that there isn't much new here. Hope everything is ok over there! I might try to call tonight.
