Stories

The girls like to be read stories, of course. They also enjoy me making stories up. Last night Alisa made up a story to tell me. This is it, pretty close to verbatim:

And then they went to bed.
Night. Night.

Prosecute

I get so disgusted with our weak, unprincipled leadership. Another Wikileaks bomb came out that confirms the extent to which Bush & Co. lied and manipulated their way through myriad war crimes.

The American people are no better. People are willing to suffer such evil, or even support it in the case of conservatives.
