SORRY FOR THE LACK OF FREE ICE CREAM

I've been verrrry busy lately, and spending far too much time on the highways and railways between Baltimore and DC. When I get home it's late and I'm tired, and would honestly rather spend a little time with my family than put up a post or two. But that should change shortly, and I'll probably be back to the sleepless blog schedule that's been prematurely aging me for the past year and a half.

Chris has been doing a fine job keeping things going. His John Kerry post is spot on.

This site will soon need a new graphic for the masthead--with Saddam gone and Ahmed Chalabi as likely as anyone to lead the next real Iraqi government, it won't be appopriate much longer to keep targeting Baghdad. Any suggestions? I suppose a similar treatment for Kim Jong Il won't be far off the mark, though Bashir Assad seems to be pushing his way to the head of the get-whooped line.

If you have any ideas, drop me or Chris a line.
