Yes Adam-

A picture will do it every time- it goes back to the womb days- still working it out!

This is the california border

SUSAN HYBERNATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jen-

Adam posted the answer- and I am so upset- I had found an article about air mobility but I thought nope- and guess what-

I have to go sleep for the next four days- I am clinically depressed! (that is what people do when they are depressed, right?)

Where is Patty? This is all her fault- if she had been here, between you two, I would have posted the correct answer- now I am looking for that darn article-

Susan,
Patty might be without power with the ice storm. Or out looking for these guys on the hill.
Let’s keep a light on for her to help her out.

Last throw of the spaghetti against the wall comment for a few hours-

somewhere around Otay River Valley?

Patty- are you ok?

Avi

I feel whatever you choose to do, you are going to do it and I bet you are going to be good at it-

I am looking forward to seeing you in the papers! Follow your goals- you are certainly on the right track!

Susan…. I’m geering more towards the political world…. once i gradute in 09′ and go into College that is lol…. Ultimite goal is to work my way up in the State Dept …… I wouldnt wanna be a Congressman or the President becuase a. you have to run around town and collect money and all that stuff and sometimes lose money.b you have people make up rumors and its alot of bad politcs. I’d rather work hard get paid and do something i like =D

Jen

Adam has been with John Candy and Steve Martin- Planes, trains, and automobiles-

He is like dragging- and trying to keep up with this blog- should I feel sorry? Maybe-

I think, Adam, when he gets older and is tired of running around everywhere doing the best as he has been doing, should think about teaching- Would he not make a great teacher?

What do you think?

Jen-

I found your comment-
Greta–Why do the people you interview have to stand outside in the cold????

Comment by Greta Van Susteren
December 10th, 2007 at 10:12 pm
i have no idea..i hate the cold so i should not do it to others

I think Greta answers the first few to let people know she is there, but after about 600 later, she probably does not have the time to answer each and all so she is gracious enough to leave a few so her viewers don’t think they are ignored as Adam does to us!!!!

What is with that? I have posted at least 999,000 posts here and Adam has maybe replied eight times!

Jen:

I am not sure if Adam takes a holiday break so he can spend his holiday time celebrating the holiday with his holiday family and holiday friends with the holiday tree with the holiday presents eating holiday food on this particular holiday day.

Do you think he will have a holiday drink? But not enough to have a holiday hangover?

Susan–I think it was shortly after 10 when I was watching and sent it last night, where she announces the show is starting and to leave comments.

Oh yes the 23rd. I will mark the calendar, but will obviously remember since you won’t be here.
Wonder if Adam takes a Holiday break??

Jen-

I was also acknowledged- One of my comments is actually on one of her sites- It has to do with me giving a background of a restaurant she went to in Aruba- my fame and glory for the moment-

Until December 23rd, when I go to the Cardinals game and bring my posters reading- Housley in the House? watch for me- will remind you of course on the 22nd! tee-hee (I have good seats)

Where and on what thread did Greta respond on? I want to go check it out as I linger here?

OK I feel bad.. Adam has a new post. He’s been hard at work.
Sorry Blog Master!!

This is a picture of two cocoons and metamorphosis done through a scientific lab using humans being as opposed to insects as this picture was taken in the incomplete stage?

Susan,
I know exactly what you mean. BUT, last night I sent Greta a note during her show and she answered it. Ha. It always bugged me that she has people standing out in the cold when she talks to them…I think it was shortly after 10 when I was watching and sent it.
I read some over there and comment on Rare occasion any more.

Yes, I saw that too and heard it loud and clear.

How about this one?

Hide and Seek? somewhere in the hills of the Cal/Mex border?

And one more thing..tick ..tick..tick , we are waiting for a HINT.
I’m wound up for some reason. Maybe Susan is contagious.

Avi-

maybe when you get out of school, you can start a career in journalism? You seem to be on top of many issues given a person your age would not even think about-

Jen:

I think I will stay over here- I am totally an invisible person over there and my comments mean nothing- Unfortunately their safety comes in numbers and my safety comes from knowing who I talk with- My need for popularity diminished years ago- You know what I mean?

Go check out the holiday topic- interesting comment someone left there- I could almost hear the tone-

Hey, why don’t we all go over to Gretawire.com…

(think that he’ll get my Hint?)

I’m hot because The HINT MASTER has not given us much to chew on. Oh well,
I stand firm with both of my answers.
But I’ll take a hint if I’m wrong.

anyone warm or cold here?

Wild Guess…civilians watching the Mex-Cal border for illegals. The place looks like it may have had a fire go through it. I see a river and a road. I’ve never been to Southern Cal. so I don’t know what it looks like. Otherwise, it looks like the mtns and rocky places of Afghanistan to me.

OO WAIT you cant take a pic of a green screen lol… but yah maybe its a cool movie set?

Maybe this is a movie set !!!!!!!!!!! GREEEN SCREEN

Tecate, California- or Baja?

Note- I thought Tecate was a cerveza- (brewski)

So the file name is just a ruse. Hmm. Looks can be deceiving? Maybe it’s rocks pretending to be Special Ops!
It can’t be Kuwait because they have no mountains there. Was it Arnold Schwarzenegger’s security a month after he asumed office?

Jen-

Polish here- mom’s side-Wesolych Swiat i Szczesliwego Nowego Roku
Swedish- dad- God Jul och Gott Nytt År

Where is Patty? I thought she was a prisoner to her house? Adam needs to drop a hint- have any of which have been posted warm or real cold

Well- I will check back in a couple hours-

Rats… We need Patty.

Susan-
Nollaig Shona Dhuit <——-That’s the Irish in me
(A)

okay, hope that comes out; should be an angel on here.
Now we have to figure out how to get those spinning elves and dancing reindeer on here. LOL

Jen-

when you get the chance- check out the link I left there- it is not just the different languages but there are other points of interest-

Forgot to look there… oh I don’t have one.
I have a Christmas tree.

Jen-

It is under the holiday tree-

Adam,
I came to check out the HINT of the day.
I’m looking but I don’t see one…………

I think they’re shooting a new video, “Chiquitas South of the Border, Gone Wild.”

I just had Ken look at this picture- and I asked him to give me an opinion-

He said- looks like these guys are hiding from something- (this tells me he sees the picture)

I asked him to take a guess where by the border in California- he said- south of San Diego- maybe Chula Vista- El Cajon-

Ken also said these look like hills-

Mind you- this is a person who has global damage- post diabetic coma-

This is so cool- Adam- you just jogged his memory- amazing!

I am constantly trying to get those neurons working-

Anything to do with Operation Gatekeeper?

Adam’s hot spots- Kuwait, Iraq, Bahrian, Persian Gulf, Pakistan, Israel, West Bank, Gaza Strip, Venezuela, Mexico, Thailand, Korea, Nicaragua-

What am I missing Adam?

He also received the DOVE award for reporting on stories for the disabled. (I would love to read one of these stories).

Dang it to heck- it didn’t come through- here-

Pep grad covers attacks from Kuwait
Six years removed from Pepperdine, Adam Housley provides battlefield news for FOX News Channel.
By Jen Clay
Staff Writer
Only miles from combat, Pepperdine alumnus Adam Housley continues to report from Kuwait City as a correspondent for Fox News Channel.

A 1997 Pepperdine graduate with degrees in political science and telecommunications, Housley has been in the Middle East since mid-January.

Before arriving in the Kuwaiti capital, Housley spent time on the front lines with troops preparing for ground invasion and on the destroyer that eventually fired the first tomahawk missile. Although Fox News did offer Housley a Middle East-based position, his acceptance was voluntary.

“I decided to take the missile watch in Kuwait City, which has been very interesting and dangerous, but not nearly as dangerous as the men and women who are traveling with the troops,” Housley said in an e-mail interview.

Reporting live an average of eight times a day and contributing up to five radio reports, Housley ultimately decides on segment topics but still works as a team with his four-member crew. Previous reports have included an on-scene report from a Kuwaiti shopping mall damaged from the debris of an exploding Iraqi missile as well as updates on the troublesome Middle-Eastern weather. The FNC Kuwait City office houses an approximate staff of 30 and is equipped with everything from satellite and video phones to “a simple scarf to keep the sand and dust out of your face,” Housley said.

Housley also appreciates and understands his unique opportunity.

“I am missing my family and friends, but I’m still witnessing history at this point,” he said.

He hopes to return to the United States soon, but no date is currently confirmed.

Housley keeps in daily contact with friends and family via e-mail. One of those friends is Professor of Political Science Dr. Dan Caldwell who had Housley in three political science courses. While he confirmed Housley’s budding interest in broadcast journalism as an undergraduate, Caldwell pointed to Housley’s love for politics as a possible key to his future.

“I believe that sometime in the future he’d like to run for political office,” Caldwell said.

Other professors remember Housley fondly. Professor of Journalism Dr. Mike Jordan had Housley as a student in his Mass Communication Law class.

“Adam was an excellent student,” he said.

While at Pepperdine, Housley pitched for the 1992 National-Champion Waves baseball team, was elected Homecoming King, served as Student Government Association President and wrote for the Graphic. Housley took advantage of the opportunities an education at Pepperdine could afford him.

“I took a wide variety of classes from the most difficult courses I could find,” he said. “Dr. Caldwell among others helped me tremendously in my studies of international relations.”

Ironically, Housley was a student at Pepperdine during the onset of Operation Desert Storm and rallied in favor of the war at on-campus debates and protests in Westwood.

“I had a suitemate in dorm two who missed the first two weeks of school because of the invasion,” Housley said. “He lived in Kuwait and was snuck out by an Iraqi friend. His stories of the Iraqi atrocities were a rallying point for many at Pepperdine.”

After graduation, Housley competed in the minor leagues and briefly pursued a career in professional baseball. He began his professional broadcasting career in Napa, Calif. at KVON-KVYN radio, where he developed and produced newscasts. After working as a live reporter for KCPM-TV (NBC) in Chico, Calif. from 1997-1998, Housley served as a reporter at KTXL-TV (Fox) in Sacramento from 1999-2001. He also served as lead reporter for the independent, Santa-Rosa-based KFTY-TV from 1998-2000 and won a 2001 regional Emmy for his work with KFTY-TV.

Housley joined Fox News in 2001 as a Los Angeles-based correspondent. For FNC he has covered both the Winona Ryder and Robert Blake investigations and traveled to Pakistan, Israel and Palestine. He received a 2001 Regional Associated Press Reporting Award and a regional RTDNA Reporting Award.

Housley offers this advice to current Pepperdine students.

“No matter what anyone says to you, if you work hard, believe in yourself, remain level headed, trust in God and enjoy family and friends … you will succeed,” he said. “Believe it or not, while I had tremendous support at Pepperdine and I look on my time there very fondly, I had people (there) who said I wouldn’t make it in television or in baseball. I didn’t listen.”

Patty and Jen-

please check this out- it is so interesting- I was checking to see which stories Adam covered in 2003- Patty- he was in Kuwait- but it was in April-

graphic.pepperdine.edu/news/2003/2003-04-03-aahousley.htm

He also covered Arnold’s campaign this year- another article-

No wonder Adam is so smart- he also studied political science-

John-

I just saw your comment-

You are so frigging funny- love it- I wonder where Al landed his plane?

Lets start from scratch- what stories does Adam cover and where has he been?

Thailand Southeast Asia tsunami tragedy
. Housley also reported internationally during Operations Iraqi Freedom from Kuwait, Iraq, Bahrain and the Persian Gulf and has spent time covering the war on terror from Pakistan, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

He has covered Venezuela- Mexico- and of course California-

What am I missing Adam?

Adam, you make me laugh. Don’t you know I’m not to smart. This old Granny loves you.

Is there a geologist on board here? What kind of rocks are those?

Look at the terrain- bare- no trees- bushes- and it is December 17, 2003- no snow-

I have to ponder the hints

Off topic—-GADGET ALERT——
This picture reminded me of this. Cell phones recycled for phone cards for soldiers. Here’s what to do with your old cell phone. It’s free, they pay the shipping or they have drop off locations. They take used cell phones in any condition.

Sorry for the interruption.

Al Gore and Co., diligently awaiting the coming of the next ice age near Palm Springs Ca.

Tent right- has equipment in it hence the bag makes a bump in the covering where it hangs out and its largely big so the other bump near the bottom is just another bump from the bag and notice how its connected to the tree i dont think army people connect themselves to the stuff around them they just put themselves around them to look just like their surroundings …

and the left is just someone chilling out and relaxing.

Maybe this is just Adam and a friend of his just on a random trip in the mountains …… maybe maybe not….

DULZURA, Calif. – Immigrant smugglers once avoided the rugged, chaparral-covered canyons east of San Diego for easier crossing points – but now the Otay Mountains are one of the busiest areas along California’s border with Mexico. …..

One recent evening, two of the agents broke thick sweats as they sped downhill over granite boulders and branches burned during California’s 2003 wildfires.

Here, here- the Town Crier-

Let it be noted, Adam is doing a normal thing- on the couch, watching football, and doing bill…

Adam- that almost sounds bad!

Jen-

me too- I am calling it till mañana-

I think Adam will let us play for a few more days- it beats my nagging him- like I posted to him- the native here is restless-

I have to have rest- so I can look at this picture in a different light- do you think it is elsewhere than the California border? The picture says CA border or is Adam pulling a fast one? Too much to think about… oh woe is me….

Vino sounds good- hmm? I might have to walk down to Tom’s and see what he has-

nite

Too funny! Susan—->”My son is a hunter too- I just shoot my mouth off! ”

Looks like Adam left… He did call this a picture of the day, so does that mean the answer is tomorrow?
I can’t research any more. Headed to the couch with a glass of vino in hand. cheer.

Jen

I saw your pictures- Bambi and father-

My son is a hunter too- I just shoot my mouth off!

I will borrow from Jen- called cheating in other parts of the country-

Bortac in California?

Jen- that was a good one- I had to go look it up!

Funny how one can look at a picture and see it differently everytime- those hills are not green-
It almost looks like volcanic dust-

I have walked through that stuff- it is like walking through lead-

Or is it charred? hmm

Jen-

Actually you are the one who is organized- Adam hit the nail on the head when he asked if I was throwing spaghetti against the wall?

I start on an impulsive search- then after I start to get the details together, if and when I do, I then might get organized- Now the Chavez thing was because Adam gave us an article and I had something to start with-

I am what they refer to as scattered… so sad, so true!

OH good Adam was just here…
*****Adam here is my last entry for the day.
BORTAC, in Tucson, Arizona. Doing what they do best.

hot or cold?

Susan,
I’m sure your organizational skills are at work and your favorites are probably flashing OVERLOAD! I hope no one ever has to investigate my hard drive. All the Chavez research might land me in jail. Ha.

Patty-

You would be afraid if a snake came out? And it was just you and me under those nets? Guess who would be pushed down that hill because of my panic attack?

Jen, i figured it out, but your right, it sounded like hubby should RUN! *L*

That didn’t sound too good. If you all saw my pictures, you would understand.
The deer and the antelope on the walls!

It’s all in the thrill of the hunt! Now I understand how my husband feels….

*L* susan you crack me up!!
its a good thing we dont all live across the street from each other, we would cause serious damage!!

Id be afraid a darn snake would crawl out from under one of those rocks…..yikes!

Avi is good at this!

Isn’t Adam fun? I love it when he comes out to play1

Jen-

You ought to see my Favorites- what started out to be just saving dumb sites has now turned into a geography favorites- I save all these sites and then decrease the size of this screen to open the favorites- like a layout- I just got down reading US Border Report- January, 2001- San Diego- CA

Jen i seee a body in the one on the right it has a circular shape … and the left the person is upright and is camfloged by the cover. why would you be upright in a mission. It might be common for campers to use camo.

Avi-

There were fires around 2003- maybe looking for arsonists?

Patty- I couldn’t figure out that stick looking thing either? I can’t see it- how do you get to it when you need it with all that netting around you?

Jen- Bogota has some very green hills-

Adam- who is on the hot side here?

San Diego county and Imperial county, California (the 2 Mexican border counties in California)

Avi! *L*

so help me out here. under that net to the right….i thought it was a gun….but is it a missle????

its a high school science class sneaking out of school for the day?!?!

The US Green Berets in Columbia. Protecting the oil pipelines, actually there to train the Columbians, since they were not allowed engage in fighting.
Am I hot or am I cold?

i have an outside of the box idea:

This is a few people of a FOX crew camping out in the mountains of california while covering a wild fire. Hence the area looks burned suggesting a fire has swept through the area. And notice the green back pack hanging out if it was a special opts training mission they wouldnt have stuff hanging out of their hiding spot. So i think its the fox crew sleeping to avoid predators or what not !

Susan–Take a breath! HA HA

IM otay ….you otay? *LOL*

Otay Mountain Trail also used by border patrol?

these look more like hills than mountains?

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,47929,00.html

Patty- here is a great overall of Adam- watch the video too- it is so cute of him- discussing vino!

Adam…weren’t you in Kuwait in 2003?

smugglers gultch?

these hills are green- hmmm?

Adam-

I was wondering what the yuck was on my walls!

WEST OF CALEXICO
There are dozens of miles of open border west of Calexico, just south of California Highway 98. And there are several dirt roads heading south along this stretch of black top that appear to head towards the border. In reality many of these road become dead ends, as they only serve as pick up points to load illegals heading north into the U.S. (see story above). Once these roads get near the border they turn into dirt paths used by the coyotes and Mexicans heading north. There are a few roads that travel through rough territory that do connect to Mexico Highway 2-D, about 20 miles west of Mexicali

Adam-

JACUMBA
For years the borders at Jacumba were porous into Mexico and going from the U.S. to the Mexican village of Jacume was standard procedure for hundreds of Mexicans every month. In the late 1990’s the U.S. government cracked down on this pass-through border, and a more significant fence was erected. Despite these new efforts, it is still possible to walk or drive from the U.S. to Baja east or west of Jacumba, via California Highway 94. It is approximately six miles from the border to Mexico Highway 2 and Mexico Toll Highway 2-D.

They are going to become rocks if they don’t come out for air!

Isn’t this like cruel and unusual punishment? Can these poor guys breathe with that netting covering them? They are trying to look like rocks-

I would move on to somewhere else but the picture says Cal border- 2003- and in 2003 there was a big thing about illegal immigration- so …

Border patrol …thousands of Mexicans cross the Baja / US border every month at unauthorized border locations.

Patty-

I actually had to do what is that word again? Work! yes work- It is awful- I miss all of you- I think I have better friends here than out here-

JACUMBA?

CALEXICO?

Susan- Phx is BACK! *L*
missed you today!!
she knows it, i know she does! ha ha

I was thinking it was in Afghanistan, too.

They have many mosquitos there? rofl.
