caption this photo from Iraq


STORMY WEATHER — A dust storm which originated near the Syrian-Jordanian border swept across Iraq's western desert April 26, 2005. U.S. Marine Corps weather forecasters stationed at Al Asad, Iraq, described the dust storm as a downburst. The storm passed over in about 45 minutes, leaving a heavy sheet of dust in its wake. Forecasters say the wall of dust may have reached 4,000 to 5,000 feet, based on the height of the clouds above it. U.S. Marine Corps photo by Gunnery Sgt. Shannon Arledge

13. Sometimes that's all you need ...

... an honest reaction.

I had a weird image though when I saw it. It sorta created this mental image of god with intestinal flu having a rather fluid movement. :-)
