The day was cold and I was lonely.

The day was cold and I was lonely. I sat at my computer, deciding between looking for John Mayer tabs or playing Counting Crows on the guitar, when suddenly a heavenly voice screamed from the bathroom, "AUSTAN COME QUIIIIIICK!.....but don't open the door cuz I don't think it's locked." I waited outside the bathroom door anxiously, praying for life and salvation from the horrors on the other side and heard the toilet flush. The door was flung open and I realized my prayers had been answered, for who else was before me, but RAGEH OMAAR!!!! (RAG-eih O-maaahh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I ran to my room, grabbed scissors and instantly cut out his critically acclaimed picture from the Hello magazine and immediately taped it to my wall....Now and forever does the picture and spirit of Rageh Omaar carry me as I sleep and wishes me well on my travels. Thank you Rageh. Thank you for all you have given me and the world. Baghdad would not I have been the same without you. I would not have been the same without you....
