Watching Desert Storm (1991)

When Desert Storm had just begun, Scott and I stayed up until all hours one night (at least, may have been more) watching the CNN coverage. I remember being freaked by a number of things: living in a country at war, wondering what the hell we were doing there, watching a war on television and them going on and on about some precision bombing into a heating duct or something like that. Wow! We could bomb with impunity thanks to our super special technological advantage. That must make us the better nation!

Oddly enough, I also remember that I had really bad gas on the night in question. My little contribution to the war effort.
