Recently deceased entertainer Bob Hope announced Monday that he was happy to be reunited with the millions of U.S. troops currently stationed in Paradise, many of whom he entertained during his 50-year career. 'It sure brings a smile to my face to see all you proud men and women in uniform,' Hope said. 'Let's hope the food is better here than it was in the mess tent.' Turning to the Pearly Gates, Hope gave a thumbs-up to a soldier killed Monday in a guerrilla attack 20 miles west of Baghdad.
