I've been keeping track of the news of late despite myself, and have found myself watching pictures of what our military claims are Uday and Qusay Hussein.

OK - you can tell I've been in a lot of 12-step meetings in my time, but that's what first popped into my mind when I decided I'd write this post.

By now, this article is becoming something of a familiar feature of my life - I seem to print it every year on Memorial Day Weekend. But it's worth my time in ways no one can imagine.
