This has been a truly crazy week for me. I came back with some kind of Danish head cold, thought that was ok since I was due for me annual Irish one anyway. But it seems like I shut down during one of the most interesting weeks of the GOP's apparent implosion. Against the backdrop of the Foley scandal [1], "sharply" rising U.S. casualties [2] in Iraq, ever-more mystery bodies [3] turning up tortured in Baghdad, a report that Rumsfeld has killed almost 700,000 Iraqis [4] , U.S. soldiers murdering a journalist [5] and, oh yeah, that little ol' double nuclear detonation topping off six years of Bush's dismal failure [6] in dealing with North Korea, we finish up the week with this little gem [7] documenting that the Bushies [8] may not be so chummy with the "Boorish" and "Nuts" Christian Right after all. Seriously, Hollywood can't even come up with a farce this clever!
Anyway, didn't feel like venturing out much this week for photos, so I present you with a couple of old pics I took on Trinity Campus. Enjoy!
