- On a quick read, I think this is worth pointing to in the current context of divisiveness, fear and anger. My first reaction is to endorse this, but I want to think about it some more. I do know that I would welcome more politeness online today, whether or not being nice turns out not to be a nice thing to do. In any case, I think it's an excellent observation in a very brief post that prompts more thinking on my own. And that's always nice. |

- No, it's not one of the Halo skits. It's an editorial in the Christian Science Monitor about the divisions in America. It's an encouraging sign to me. Although I'm very skeptical about how human beings behave in groups, I think I would prefer more unity within Americans as a group than the fear and hostility growing out of the current divisiveness. When you find yourself in a hole, the best thing to do is to quit digging. |

- Rien ne va plus entre les frères libéraux de Vélingara. La lutte de positionnement et de leadership fait rage au sein de la fédération départementale de cette partie du fouladou. L'enjeu, c'est les prochaines élections législatives de 2006 et surtout le renouvellement du Secrétariat général de la Fédération. Depuis un peu plus d'un an maintenant, chacune des trois tendances rivales se targue d'être la bonne graine. Mais la tension est vite montée d'un cran ces dernières quarante- huit heures quand, le samedi 5 juin, de retour de Dakar où il avait été reçu et réhabilité par Abdoulaye Wade, l'ancien maire Amadou Bèye Baldé avait fait l'objet d'un accueil pompeux par les nombreux militants de sa tendance. |

- I've not found one bad GTA game to date. GTA London comes close, but it's got the same great gameplay the first one had. It's just a little harder than the first one. GTA Vice City is my favorite, because many of the actors I've studied (Ray Liotta, Luis Guzman, Danny Trejo) and the soundtrack rules (come on, anyone who plays 'Raining Blood' in a video game can't be all bad). |

- Conservation officer Dave Bakica is convinced that whatever two men saw early last Sunday morning, it shook them up.

- I suspect much of this country feels, as I do, that Ronald Reagan was not the saint that the radical Right would like us to believe. Still, the media coverage this past week has not only been gushingly positive, but also all-consuming. While watching that carriage parade around for 4 hours last night, and suffering through Dick Cheney’s political eulogy, I kept thinking of the horrible things this guy was responsible for — and many of them meet my definition of High Crimes and Misdemeanors. |
