I'm on call this week and dialed in to one of our Wisconsin properties. Seeing as we only have digital lines at home and I'm already here in the office, welcome to my blog from the cube.

So far, it doesn't seem like I'm going to get much sleep this week. Like you care.

In any case, I've been waiting for Microsoft, Dell, Veritas, and random selection to create miracles and have some links to throw your way.

Reuters has a story on the spread of Islam amongst African-Americans. Check out related stories on lack of Muslim recruits in the military as well as how Muslims are faring in the heartland.

Meanwhile, Bush is consorting with Lebanese anti-Semitic politician types who revel in the deaths of our soldiers.

In Britain, Prince Charles is more worried about banning Big Macs than in being concerned that his youngest boy is going off to war, much less the problem that he married Mr. Ed's daughter.

Walter Cronkite, in a recent interview, called the Iraq War a "mistake" though he has been a frequent Bush critic for quite awhile now.

Meanwhile, wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center have been given the gag and cannot speak with the media about the poor conditions there.

Meanwhile, two brigades being sent to Iraq will have to pass on desert training at the National Training Center due to the Bush rush job to get them into harm's way immediately. I mean, why would you want desert training to go to, you know, a desert? More proof this administration and it's sick party is more interested in covering their ass and their corporate sponsor's pockets than our soldiers.
