My digital camera is finally working now, so that means vacation pictures any day now, but in the meantime, I will shower you in Pez in the form of some pictures from the amazing Easton Museum of Pez Dispensers.
And even though I did not get a shot of the Flinstones vs Simpsons Pez Hockey Match display, I did manage to get a shot of Donald Duck Pez Dressed Up as Snow White and the Seven Drawfs display.

Baghdad Burning has the best coverage of the Dhuluaya green massacre that I've seen so far.
On a completely different topic, here's a bit from the Fable of George Washington and the Cherry Tree
"But, Oh! how different, George, is the case with the boy who is so given to lying, that nobody can believe a word he says! He is looked at with aversion wherever he goes, and parents dread to see him come among their children...."
(I've got Gnome up and running now. Gentoo rocks. Portage kicks butt. Almost all is good in pwanville, the bit of badness being I screwed up some of my preconversion backup and some old content is lost forever. Alas.)

Maybe it's just me, but when some religious wackjob suggests nuking the Metro stops 10 minutes from me, I'd like to think that qualifies for a trip to the nearest condemed political prison.
But somehow I doubt that's going to happen. On the positive side, bingo players may get a chance at another square in the N column soon... Weehoo for them.
(P.S. The Gentoo installation went through without a hitch, even though the instructions were a bit intimidating. However I forgot to save the xfree config file before hand, so I'm having a bit of little trouble getting X Windows up again in anything other than the most basic VGA mode. Hopefully that will be resolved tonight.)
