I guess from the “tragedy” of the British hostage crisis arises the comedy of it…. A sailor compared to Mr. Bean…the story of the stolen IPODS…It is amazing how awesomely brave and “stiff-upper-lipped” the soldiers had to be. My heart bleeds for them…the horrors!

I know it has been ages since I wrote anything about Iraq or the war. Here is an interesting article on the Huffington Post from a lady who was based out of Baghdad for most of 2003 and 2004 speaking ambivalently about the war and her feelings about it.

I have loved the Mavericks ever since I began watching basketball - since their first foray into play-offs against the Jazz. I have liked Mark Cuban regardless of other people’s perception of the guy.

Here is a post at Althouse blog about her exchange with another lady on a bloggingheads.tv segment. The comments grabbed my interest a lot more than the post or the bloggingheads.tv segment.

I was driving the now almost-3-years-old little one to his day care this morning when he exclaims, “Mommy, XXXX is black!” about a dark-skinned classmate. I was a little surprised at the tone of that, and recognizing a theme for a lecture, asked him, “so, what color are you?”.

Looks like the Iranians got themselves a few British hostages this time (the link has a good roundup of reactions and reports). This is just so brazenly provocative towards England, I just cannot make any sense out of it. What are these people thinking?
