You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
An old friend of mine and her husband are in the process of leaving Ft. Hood. She's just gotten him back after a year in Iraq.
I am trusting in Hood's enormity that he is fine, but as soon as someone sees a list of names please link it.

I actually heard on NPR that he was disciplined early in his career for proselytizing. I think that might have been pre-Army.

You know, it's rare I actually hope PJ's best friend is still in Afghanistan (she's a copter pilot of some sort and PJ is ALWAYS freaking out about it.)
I just got home. Dinner now.
