I brought that picture from the previous 50 posts. The story was that 4 soldiers were executed and buried in shallow graves.

This picture accurately reflects my feelings on our world situation in general.

heheh - another reason to count my blessings for NOT checking PING, in my preferences.

As IG would say, "Off to climb Mt.Laundry."

From WSJ Opinion Journal:

MTV viewers support Iraq's liberation.

While surfing through the news section of MTV's Web site, we happened to stumble across its "At War With Iraq" link, and it sure belies the cable network's spoiled, Generation Y image. For example, in an MTV poll attempting to distinguish between its viewers' support for the war and their support for the troops, the results were pretty amazing. An overwhelming 60% reported that they supported both the troops and the war. Some 37% answered that they opposed the war but nonetheless supported the troops. That left only a tiny 3% who oppose the troops as well as the war.

Granted, no one's going to bet the house on online polling. And yes, the news stories that MTV offers up on its site include such gems as "War Inspires Jewel To Go Electronic On Next LP" and "U2's Bono Discusses The Situation In Iraq And The War On Terrorism." But it also includes a wealth of other information, the most striking of which has to be a section called "e-mail from the front." These are letters from and pictures of young Americans in uniform who have been deployed overseas, ranging from a ferociously tattooed ex-L.A. gang member turned Marine to a sailor aboard the USS Kearsarge who says that he's into "techno" music.

For the most part these young men and women simply explain where they come from, what their job entails and what the war looks like from where they sit. Take Airman Brandy Kown, a graduate of Henry County High School in Georgia, who helps maintain the state-of-the-art communications systems used by coalition forces in the Arabian Gulf.

"We sit deep in the desert watching like guardian angels," she writes. "The skills that each person brings to this table and the equipment that we have built to help us give us the ability to watch over all the Marines and soldiers on the ground, sailors from the sea, and all the airmen in the sky. We take care of them as they take care of all of you reading this letter."

Airman Kown ends her note saying that she respects the right of other Americans to protest this war, adding that the whole reason that she's there is to help "make sure they keep that right." Remember, this is not Donald Rumsfeld. This is a 19-year-old who could be the kid next door. Pretty hard to picture our troops as baby-killers when you look at Brandy Kown.Link

Madonna may have miscalculated. All about her new anti-war video.

I caught a few minutes of the Barbara Walters interview with the young Iraqis. I absolutely could not believe ABC, of all networks, was airing it. These folks were passionate and eloquent in describing how they desired freedom for their land and, necessarily, the removal of Saddam from power.

The D.C. anti-war protesters are good for a laugh, anyway. The ones on the ground look like they have giant underpants on their heads. Anyone who ever watched Pee-Wee's Playhouse knows what I'm talking about! La la la.

In other news:

The feds are meeting this week to discuss Martha Stewart, says a source familiar with the case, adding, “I think you can expect some sort of announcement early next week.” MSNBC

Finally, cheers for our favorite golfer. He's in good shape heading into the third round at the Players' Championship.

I was just wondering about Stewart. Go Stewart GO!!

I admire Tory Clark, very much... but someone needs to teach that woman how to dress.

Yes, she wore some patchwork jacket the other day that looked like a clown suit.

I saw that one too. What in the world is she thinking?!

Oh well, I'll take extremely smart over fashion conscious in an Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs.

I just found a blog created by an American in France, "merde in France". It's a great look at what's really going on there, especially as relates to France's support for Saddam. I hadn't seen this NY Post cover, but found it at the blog:

Two U.S. Marines avert their eyes as they pass the sickening tribute to the 9/11 terror strikes painted on the wall of Iraq's abandoned military headquarters at Nasiriyah.

Yep, no connection with al Qaeda and Saddam going on... just another isolated incident.

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

A picture of Moynihan and Clinton before his death reminds us of this famous quote from Moynihan:

"I can't hear you over the stench of hillary's wretched pantsuit!"

Sweat Cheeks --

Comfort is north of Boerne, therefore, north and west of SA. That puts me somewhere between SA and you. Let's do it!

Totally on the mark on Torie - she is great but someone DOES need to tell her how to dress!

Meyer's Bed & Breakfast

The Stage Stop was the original building in the Meyer Complex. It dates from 1857 when it was a welcome haven for travelers, offering shelter closest to the Guadalupe River crossing on the fabled Old Spanish Trail, what is now High Street, the main thoroughfare in historic Comfort.

I know that I can find a better map than this one...thinking that the quaint town of Dripping Springs may be a good place to chat and chew.
