DREW CAREY HITS BAGHDAD
On the same day United Nations officials flew out of Baghdad, Drew Carey flew in Friday, commanding a company of comedians on a mission to entertain U.S. troops.

"I love Baghdad," Carey said. "You have camels, bugs and everything's served up with a big dirty glass of water. Sorry. If there's any locals here tonight, I'm just joking around. We're very grateful for all the hospitality you've shown," he said sarcastically.

Baghdad's Convention Center was transformed into the most heavily armed comedy club in the world Friday night for nearly 2,000 U.S. troops. Earlier Friday, the U.N. began downsizing its staff because of recent bombings in Iraq's capital.

I've said it before - if you need a suggestion, donate to the USO
