- Monday's roast chicken fulfills its destiny - as chicken mole. We had a little of the chicken that night, but we prepared it with this meal in mind. It was definitely worth the wait, but it was more work than expected. Happily, we had some helpers in the kitchen. |

- According to resident Bush he:believes the former Iraqi dictator is active in the guerrilla campaign being waged against American troops in the country.As noted in this article (posted previously)A senior Iraqi official said yesterday there was no truth in claims by the Pentagon that Saddam Hussein and Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri, one of his aides, were orchestrating anti-US resistance in Iraq.Somebody doesn't know what they're talking about do they? Who do you suppose that is? |

- Our Prime Minister doesn't seem to think that we need a public inquiry into why a Canadian citizen was arrested in New York by U.S. officials, accused of terrorist ties, refused access to a lawyer, and deported to Syria where he was confined in a 3' x 6' x 7' cell and tortured until he was willing to admit to anything in the hopes of stopping the pain. Just what sort of shady environment are we now living in anyway? Given the circumstances I think a public inquiry is a damned fine idea. |

- [ Via Blog Left ] It seems that in addition to Europeans ranking Iran, North Korea, and the United States as a equal threats to world peace a huge majority of Americans don't believe their presidents claims that the war in Iraq is central to the war on terrorism. The Whitehouse doesn't need people thinking for themselves on this issue, if they can't keep up the facade Bush is really going to be hurting come this time next year. Even members of the Republican party are getting more... |

- No, it's not a new frequent Internet flyer program, it's a reward for catching those nasty virus writers.( FortWayne.com ) - Microsoft Corp. announced Wednesday it is creating a $5 million reward program to help law enforcement identify and convict those who illegally release worms, viruses and other types of malicious programs on the Internet.Now that's enough coin to make a few of these folks roll on their buddies I imagine but two questions come immediately to mind: |

- I while back (on a r/w blog I visit) I made a statement to the effect that Bush posed the greatest current threat to world peace and stability.... needless to say my opinion was in the minority. We now find that, according to a European Union commissioned poll, Europeans ranked Israel as the number one threat to world peace with Iran, North Korea, and the United States all tied for second place. Expect to see Bush and his apologists thump their chests at these results, expect more... |
