8:34:02 PM   While I was away, not far really, the Cubs tanked, embarassingly, and believe it or not, the Rockies won the pennant.  I turned them off once, not by choice but by my DVR's choice when San Diego went up by a couple runs and Trevor Hoffman was coming on to finish them off.  I will not make this mistake again.  Go Rockies !

8:30:55 PM   A small crowd of Iraqis had gathered, and one among them, a middle-aged man who introduced himself as a physician traveling to Jordan to see his ailing mother, knelt down beside me and asked, in halting English, if I’d mind a question. By all means, I said. “Well then,” he said, his face breaking into a sad smile, “what I want to ask is this: This proposal you make, is it for four legs only, or also for two? Six months’ detention, British passport, free to stay, guaranteed home, this is excellent. I will take, and many other Iraqis, too.”- What Cats Know About War
