#1 Have you ever noticed that e-v-e-r-y explosion "rocks?" Three-and-a-half years of reading news headlines is causing me to become weary of that word. It must be a macro key or an auto find and replace function.

#2 Sucker actually did "rock" my world. Popped the window of my trailer open. Also was timed such that it went off 3 seconds after my alarm, quickening my usual slow start. A few rockets came in a few days ago, the first stuff in a while. The post-election lull isn't completely over, but it's getting "noisier".

#3 ***bitter sarcasm alert***
So, is the ransom money paid for Ms. Sgrena being put to good use, or what?

#4 "Rocks" - means the ice in the reporters drink moved while the reporter sat in the Baghdad Hilton's lounge.
