A Metaphor Gone Metastatic

Correction: (Feb 29 2004 03:05 GMT) - I thought it was just that I couldn't read A Civil Campaign when my high school best friend had dumped me to get married to someone who used to be my friend. It turns out that I can't even read A Civil Campaign when I haven't seen my (current) best friend in two months. You can imagine how terribly thrilled this realization is making me. It's been over a year since we got any quality time alone together. |

U.S., Pakistan Deny Bin Laden Was Captured (Feb 29 2004 03:04 GMT) - "Pentagon and Pakistani officials on Saturday denied an Iranian state radio report that Osama bin Laden was captured in Pakistan's border region with Afghanistan "a long time ago." The claim came as Pakistan's army hunted terror suspects in a remote tribal region along the border, believed to be a possible hiding place for the al-Qaida's leader. The director of Iran radio's Pashtun language service, Asheq Hossein, said the report was based on two sources — one of whom later told The Associated Press he was misquoted. The report said bin Laden had been in custody for a period of time, but that President Bush was withholding any announcement until closer to November elections." — |

Leaving the Woods (Feb 29 2004 03:04 GMT) - Thoreau on returning to civilization. -- My recent post on Tom Elpel may have made it sound as if Thoreau advocated a return to nomadic living. Far from it. After all, Thoreau was satisfied most of the time to ramble around Concord, Massachusetts, not the wilderness. Sure he did explore a bit in New England (he even climbed Mount Katahdin back when that part of Maine was pretty remote), but he was no hunter-gatherer. |
