After Words: Martha Raddatz, author of "The Long Road Home," interviewed by Col. Thomas Hammes, author of "The Sling and the Stone"

Description: In "The Long Road Home" ABC News correspondent Martha Raddatz reports on a 2004 ambush in Sadr City, Iraq, in which eight Americans died and more than sixty were wounded. Ms. Raddatz says the battle was a turning point in the Iraq War because it marked the initial emergence of a full-blown Iraqi insurgency. Martha Raddatz is interviewed by retired Marine Corps colonel Thomas Hammes, who wrote about insurgent-style warfare in his book "The Sling and the Stone."

Author Bio: Martha Raddatz is chief White House correspondent for ABC News. Before that, she was ABC's senior national security correspondent. Thomas Hammes, a retired Marine Corps colonel, is the author of "The Sling and the Stone: On War in the 21st Century."

GravatarSpeaking of the Two-Faced Saint, don't forget to check out Cliff Schecter's Real McCain site.


GravatarFunny how Chait's position on McCain coincided with the dramatic drop in TNR's cirulation and ad revenue.

Note for Americans and other aliens: Milton Keynes is a new city approximately halfway between London and Birmingham. It was built to be modern, efficient, healthy, and all in all, a pleasant place to live. Many Britons find this amusing.

GravatarThanks, Woody. She pretty much said that Pete fixed the section of the law that said in the event negotiations failed between tribes and energy companies, Congress should enact only specific legislation, not govern all negotiations. I figured he thought it would be R's all the way forever with that provision. But with the DoJ firings of prosecutors, it looks a little fishy. Maybe the NM US attorney wasn't playing ball? I figure ol' stinky Pete is as bad as all the rest. I asked her privately later, but got the impression she didn't delve into politics or wouldn't say.

From The Journal of Albion Moonlight, by Kenneth Patchen:

August 16. I arrived back from a walk to find my room full of people anxious to hear the recorded conversation between Christ and Hitler. I threw them out.
This is the place to put it down, I guess. I'll write it as it comes from the machine. Well, here we go; I plug it in:
Hitler: Punishment? what do you know of my punishment ?
Christ: (he laughs).
Hitler: I take credit for my own guilt.
Christ: (laughs).
Hitler: What do you say to that ?
Christ: (laughs louder).

Gravatar"I know, I know, no flirting. But it's Saturday night, people! And we obviously don't have dates!"

Horse hockey. Married and just came back a bit ago from a Shake Date (Spontaneous meeting of minds that a Chocolate Shake was a dire priority).

Afterwards, we bonded together in administering Laxatone to one of our felines. I really do not want to discuss how that worked out though.

Then we labored together as partners in trying to figure out all the zippers.


(On the new luggage).


GravatarHitler: What do you say to that ?
Christ: (laughs louder).
Hitler: (beginning to sob). Give me credit for my guilt.
Christ: (laughs still louder).
Hitler: (sobs). All my life I have been afraid.
Christ: (laughs uncontrollably).
Hitler: (sobs).
Christ: (continues to laugh).
Hitler: (sobs louder.)
Christ: (laughs).
Hitler: Please ... !
Christ: Ho! Ho! Ho!
Hitler: Please ...
Christ: Ha! Ha! Ha!
Hitler: (beginning to scream). Please ! Please ...
Christ: (his laughter drowns out all else).

GravatarMONTEVIDEO, Uruguay -
President Bush asked Congress on Saturday for $3.2 billion to pay for 8,200 more U.S. troops needed in
Afghanistan and
Iraq on top of the 21,500-troop buildup he announced in January.

Bush wants Congress to fund 3,500 new U.S. troops to expand training of local police and army units in Afghanistan. The money also would pay for the estimated 3,500 existing U.S. troops he already announced would be staying longer in the region to counter an anticipated Taliban offensive in Afghanistan this spring.

In Iraq, most of the additional troops would help with the latest Baghdad security plan, which is getting under way in the capital. The money would pay for 2,400 combat support troops, 2,200 military police forces and 129 troops for reconstruction teams.

GravatarMy favorite party trick (given enough alcohol) is doing a solo version of "Bohemian Rhapsody."

It kills. Totally.


I once did a rousing acapella rendition of "Happy Talk" to a crowd of drunken Irishmen in a local pub.

They really appreciated it, because they remembered the Captain Sensible version growing up.

In the day, I could hit the high note without falsetto. Alas, my voice has deteriorated almost as much as Freddie's did in his final days.

Very cool.

Ever heard of Jonathan Coulton? He does a kick-ass, folksy/alternative/emo version of "Baby Got Back." It roolz.


GravatarBeeGees, you rank amateurs.


GravatarBush wants Congress to fund 3,500 new U.S. troops to expand training of local police and army units in Afghanistan.

BTW, how in the fuck do we all of a sudden know how to effectively train police personnel in the same fucking country where terrorists trained to fool all of us?

I don't think he had Freddie's range, high or low.

How did your guys do in their basaketball tournament?

Well, you know we won that game at home, which was the first round of the tournament (Sun Belt Conf. does their first round at campus sites). That gave us the right to go to the main tournament site (Lafayette, LA), where unfortunately we lost our first game, to Western Kentucky.

Thanks for asking ...

GravatarFreddy Mercury had a high voice but Brad Delp could sing soprano. When his voiced blended into the guitar solo in "More than a feeling" it was probably the highest note ever sang by a male rock singer. Queen's backup falsetto voices were in Brad Delp's territory. I saw Queen once in college merely because I was lucky enough to be working at the venue. They were awesome and I wasn't the biggest Queen fan. I liked he Eagles the best back then.


Gravatar"Gigantor!"

If you are going that route, I will go with the guy with the proven track record.

Yep

Richard Cheese also does an excellent lounge version of that, but his version of "CLoser' BY NIN kill sit
also "Holiday in Cambodia" recast as a Chritsmas Carol

Okay, WOW.

I'm a first tenor, and I've never had that kind of range. The highest note I've ever hit natural voice (non-falsetto) in performance is a high C, and that was only once, basically staccato.

Color me impressed.


GravatarHow about Jon Anderson?
Ah Clem


Steve Perry.

His Closer rocks. Also Lounge Against The Machine's version of Institutionalized.

Claim: The theme music for the original Star Trek TV series includes lyrics.
Status: True.

Once the Star Trek pilot was sold to NBC , Courage was in an enviable position: he would receive royalties every time an episode of Star Trek was run (or re-run), and even more royalties if the show lasted long enough to be sold into syndication after its network run was finished. Courage's windfall lasted only a year, until Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry suddenly laid claim to half the royalties. How? Pressured by Roddenberry, Courage had made a "handshake deal" a couple of years earlier that gave Roddenberry the option of composing lyrics for Courage's Star Trek music (and Courage signed a contract — unknowingly, he later claimed — to that effect). Roddenberry exercised that option, writing lyrics for the main theme and then asserting his right to half the performance royalties as a co-composer. It made no difference that the lyrics were not intended to be used in the show itself and had not been recorded or released. As the lyricist, Roddenberry was entitled to an equal share of the royalties, whether or not the lyrics were ever used.

Courage protested in vain that although the arrangement may have been legal, it was unethical: Roddenberry's lyrics added nothing to the value of the music and were created for no reason other than to usurp half the composer's performance royalties. An unsympathetic Roddenberry proclaimed, "Hey, I have to get some money somewhere. I'm sure not going to get it out of the profits of Star Trek."

Roddenberry's financial gain was Star Trek's creative loss. After scoring a couple of first-season episodes, Courage declined to perform any further musical work for the series.

GravatarRoddenberry's lyrics...

Beyond
The rim of the star-light
My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me.


GravatarThe Star Trek theme lyrics are awful.

Gravatardems some craggy peaks

i got a map for a goldmine up there somewhere...;>



We were on the back side this afternoon, up by the Lost Dutchman and Peralta trails. Very craggy indeed. I'll get some pictures posted in the next couple of days, I hope... Those peaks are, puns noted, the up side of living where I do.
