Thanks, Jeroquai and Kat: Good friends.

Boy, are you right about the tv, Kat. I have a feeling that it is insidiously entering our minds and bodies and will suck our souls into the tube without our feeling a thing, if we let it. I see all the illusions and lies coming from all directions, and I know that the one thing they aren't covering is reality. The road to Hell is paved with commercials. That's why you're right, Kat... try to find the truth slathered over with Madison Avenue slogans like Iraqi Freedom, but don't let the tube suck you dry.

Today will be a beautiful day, I can speak this morning without sqwauking, and I'm looking forward to popping in at Mudchat, and getting out to see some friends around here, who have a ready laugh.

A ready laugh. The weapon that is more powerful than a scud missile.
