Biting the Waxed Tadpole!

There are no wireless hotspots where I am. So I am on a dial-up modem and, at 46.6Kps, web pages load with excruciating slowness. Expect few comments on the news.

There is this, though, that 60% of the foreign fighters in Iraq come from nations that are our friends (supposedly). 41% are from the Kingdom of Saud, the good friends of the Bush family.

Being friends of the local oppressive monarch or dictator does not make friends among the populace. You'd think we'd have learned this lesson by now.

I'll sign off now, I'm tying up the sole phone line.

Happy Thanksgiving!
