Good morning.
I see Atrios woke up full of vinegar.
okay, stop it.
Doing the Hard Work of destroying the country has made the cretin in chief lose all powers of concentration. He actually told something true. No one believed him.

And Moe, my worst 'editorilization' was some one who used a pic of a dirt track to illustrate my article about the Washington International, which is run on grass. arrrrghhhh.
I wonder how much of a "Tuscan" Cantaloupe I may safely consume?
LTE in the local fishwrap compared Truman's glorious success in South Korea that stabilized the Far East with Bush's glorious success in Iraq that will, eventually, stabilize the Middle East.
My snark detector remained silent.
Once again, I'm not first -- but I'm early!
Which has to count for something. Attention must be paid!!!!
my mum has finished the Harry Potter novel, so yay I can read it now!

Good reading, Moon!
Moonb, did she like the ending?

Heh.
So, I gave them an entire list of changes to my copy that I thought were bullshit (and they were often "correcting" me right into mistakes), and they agreed with me. My boss went and go the copy as it went from person to person, found out who was responsible. Hopefully this will stop.

I liked that movie, but then I love Meryl Streep.

Thanks, GWPDA.
plantsman, the news is actually being held firmly down so sales will pick up. And ice cream with cantaloupe is especially good. Did I tell you all about my dream of being in a celebration with huge amounts of fine delicacies, trying to figure out how delicately to make off with the excess because I was too full?
Saw HAIRSPRAY yesterday.
Went in deteremined to hate it since I love the original to fucking death. However, within the first two minutes the Tracy character sings to two rats eating garbage and a flasher (played by John Waters himself, natch) so I surrendered to the scuzz....
It's actually a pretty terrific flick...
The Devil Wears Prada'. is a nice movie to watch and not have to use your mind too much.
just enjoy the clothes! and shoes!

One real manifestation of '1984' are the ubiquitous TV sets at places where they never existed before. Banks, supermarkets etc and it's increasing.
I was in a bank recently with some CNN bint babbling away about terrorists and everyone in line was staring at the screen.
I wonder if they have OFF buttons on these things?
.
Have no idea why I fell in love with it.
I do. 
I don't mind the Harry Potter news, or I wouldn't if there were also serious discussions about issues on the front page, too. It's sort of nice seeing people get excited about a book, like when crowds surged onto the NYC piers for the next installment of Dickens' serialized works.
ql, love that desk. Is it painted? What kind of wood?

*sigh* its pissing down with rain here again.
it grows tiresome
Also saw SUNSHINE, the new rip-off of ALIEN by that moron who made TRAINSPOTTING.
Appallingly bad on every level, although unlike TRAINSPOTTING, at least it isn't a Calvin Klein commercial for smack.
Ice cream no longer has meaning for me.
oh i liked Trainspotting, its in my DVD collection

I'm surprised by its longevity... I had expected that by now the original readers would have outgrown it and younger kids who were to young at the time wouldn't be as interested.
Guess not. My own daughters, now nineteen and fifteen still plan to read the final one.
I crapped out at some point during the fourth, I believe.
Have no idea why I fell in love with it.
Because it's cool?
HBK, I'm okay. Just a lot of muscle soreness. Once I get all my papers graded (2 more), I'm going to buy Harry Potter and sit with a heating pad all day.

WAR is a racket. It always has been.
It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.
A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small "inside" group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes.
In the World War [I] a mere handful garnered the profits of the conflict. At least 21,000 new millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World War. That many admitted their huge blood gains in their income tax returns. How many other war millionaires falsified their tax returns no one knows.
How many of these war millionaires shouldered a rifle? How many of them dug a trench? How many of them knew what it meant to go hungry in a rat-infested dug-out? How many of them spent sleepless, frightened nights, ducking shells and shrapnel and machine gun bullets? How many of them parried a bayonet thrust of an enemy? How many of them were wounded or killed in battle?
Out of war nations acquire additional territory, if they are victorious. They just take it. This newly acquired territory promptly is exploited by the few – the selfsame few who wrung dollars out of blood in the war. The general public shoulders the bill.
I also enjoyed Trainspotting.

Molly, that was our take while we discussed it last night. Anything that gets people reading and using their imaginations. Isn't that what is lacking from our leaders. A bit of imagination to put themselves in another's place. Or to figure out that maybe going into Iraq wouldn't be such a good fucking idea.
Oh, steve, you know we disagree on Trainspotting, so I won't poke you. I'll just note that, as usual, the book is better.
I was going to say that I have no desire to seen John Travolta in a wig, but then I guess he's pretty much always wearing a wig these days.

That's a pretty accurate assessment, steve.

The skies over Britain turned an apocalyptic shade of black yesterday, as "rainforest" style downpours wreaked havoc across the country.
Schools were closed, homes waterlogged and roads became impassable as parts of the country received two months' rainfall in a day. The miserable weather was yet another blow in a so-far dismal summer, coinciding with the start of the school holidays. MeteoGroup said that the average rainfall yesterday alone was enough to change the July average rainfall figures for the past 30 years.
According to the meteorologists, the typical amount of rain for the month is usually about 35mm, but yesterday as much as 85mm fell in just a few hours. Eighty areas were on flood watch, with 15 flood warnings already issued by the afternoon.
The heavy rain swept northwards, with an inch of rain an hour in places. Wales, south London and Berkshire were among the worst-affected areas, with Reading and Maidenhead town centres flooding and lane closures after a landslide on the M4.

Sexually active young people are facing a new scourge that has helped drive the epidemic of sexually transmitted infections to a 10- year high.
Cases of genital herpes rose 9 per cent last year, faster than any other sexual disease. Among teenage girls aged 16 to 19 the rise was even greater, at 16 per cent.
Genital herpes is caused by a virus and is incurable. The virus remains in the body for life and sufferers experience repeated recurrences, which can be severe. The increase pushed total cases of sexually transmitted infections up a further 2 per cent last year to 376,508. Britain has been in the grip of a 10-year epidemic that has seen infections rise by 63 per cent - almost 150,000 extra cases.

An explosion from either a bomb or a mortar has killed five people and injured at least 11 others on a minibus in Baghdad, Iraqi officials say.
The device went off in Baladiyat, a mainly Shia Muslim area in the east of the Iraqi capital.
Reports also emerged of an overnight US air strike killing six people near Hussainiya, north of the city.
The US military said Iraqi police had identified the dead as militants but local reports say many civilians died.
And a US soldier injured in a roadside bomb blast in Diyala Province has died, bringing the military death toll to at least 48 for July.

While waiting at the DMV I was sitting next to a woman who claimed she was just to busy to wait like everyone else. If she had known, she would have brought some work with her. Jeesh, there is nothing wrong with some down time.
I treat books like other people treat their American Express...I don't leave home without one. I read while in line to order lunch and while I'm eating (if I'm eating alone); I read while my car is being worked on in the shop; I read whenever I have nothing to do in the office. To me, there's something wrong with someone who is just fine with doing nothing for long periods of time. I don't understand how they can bear the boredom. And watching TV news, especially Fox, is even worse, since it's the opposite of reading a good book, in that it actually makes you dumber.
Bush administration officials involved in drafting the order said it was designed to preserve flexibility for the CIA and to avoid spelling out boundaries that might be studied by Al Qaeda or other terrorist organizations.
In a telephone briefing with reporters, an administration official, who spoke on condition of anonymity when discussing the internal development of the policy, refused to elaborate on what the order would allow CIA interrogators to do, saying: "That will only enable Al Qaeda to train against those [methods] they know are on or off."
The official emphasized that the order contained "red lines which I think we can all agree are beyond the pale," but acknowledged that there were no provisions for allowing the Red Cross to visit CIA facilities or for allowing prisoners to be in contact with their families.
The order prohibits acts deemed "beyond the bounds of human decency, such as sexual or sexually indecent acts undertaken for the purpose of humiliation."
It also forbids "acts intended to denigrate the religion, religious practices or religious objects of the individual," a provision that appears designed to address complaints that U.S. interrogators at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba had mistreated prisoners' copies of the Koran.
Chuy, I loathe these people. The "new rules" for CIA activity.
I always have a book with me, too. In college a pysch professor told our class that he always arrived home grumpy because he got stuck waiting for a long coal train every night on his way home from work.
Then it dawned on him to take a book to read while he waited and he looked forward to that train passing ever since.

The head of the army has warned that Britain is almost running out of troops to defend the country or fight in military operations abroad.
The warning by General Sir Richard Dannatt, chief of the general staff, to fellow defence chiefs comes at a time when the army is asking for a big increase in reservists to be deployed in Afghanistan, reflecting a crisis in Britain's armed forces.
In a secret memorandum he says: "We now have almost no capability to react to the unexpected." Reinforcements for emergencies or for operations in Iraq or Afghanistan were "now almost non-existent".

I don't think a word about that has been published in the United States but it's public information. You can read it in the Israeli press, you can read it in military journals.

Breaking: Gates Distances Himself From Edelman's Attack On Hillary Clinton
By Greg Sargent | bio
Defense Secretary Robert Gates is distancing himself from an under secretary's assertion that Senator Hillary Clinton's public questions about Pentagon troop withdrawal plans are aiding the enemy.
In response to our queries, the Pentagon declined to endorse the remarks made by Under Secretary of Defense Eric Edelman in a recent letter to Clinton.
Reid's not worried, nor should you be; the only folks swayed by the GOP smear machine are willing dupes.
Let us bow our heads over our keyboards & pray:
No. And it is doubtful things would transpire that way.

The "Shock and Awe" brand did not make for happy customers:
"...since the U.S. military invaded Iraq in 2003, its "show of force" brand has proved to have limited appeal to Iraqi consumers, according to a recent study commissioned by the U.S. military... They are less likely to help, the study says, when they become "collateral damage" in U.S. attacks, have their doors broken down or are shot at checkpoints because they do not speak English."

Obama tells NH crowd he'd get troops home
"When President Bush says, 'I just want to give the commanders what they want, listen to the generals,' he doesn't understand how we work here in America. Civilians control the military, and we are supposed to set the mission for the generals, and then the generals should carry out the mission," Obama said. "The military has done all we asked. We just asked the wrong things of them. That's not their fault. That's the President's fault."
He urged the crowd, which cheered his calls for ending the war, to contact their two U.S. senators to support the effort to cut off funding for the war in order to bring home the troops.
Obama said Americans need to make their voices heard to change the direction of the administration.
"Change never starts from the top down. It starts from the bottom up," he told the crowd. "The country is ready for change. It's hungry for change."
This is exactly right - Cut off the funding!!!!!
Kucinich was way ahead of these folks!
The assministration has come up with a clever scheme: If every word you say is a lie, no one will be able to point out any particular lie (if the press was interested in pointing out lies, which it isn't).
"The assministration has come up with a clever scheme:"
They have been brilliant and diligent in every respect.

Don't you live in the UK. I remember a month I once spent in Bristol, during which I forgot that there were colors.
