Celtic Classic

The Celtic Classic is going on in Bethlehem this weekend.
We are going to try to make it up there in the morning.

The comments are the best part

Read the interview...and then read the comments....as always, they are amusing.


"Attaboy, Mr. President. Nice to see that little lapdog Wallace get bitch-slapped like he deserves. "

President Clinton fights back on Fox News

This is great! A link to the full article is at the bottom of this blog.
The interview should air next week, but probably will be edited to death.
Gotta love the internet for getting the full transcript.

A friend said it best when we were talking about waking up the other morning to Bill Clinton's voice instead of you know who's. It was so soothing to wake up with hope instead of fear.

It still smells of sulpher here

This is all we americans have been hearing about all day...thanks to the media.
But it is rather hillarious. Like a fight in high school with each side calling the other side childish.

OH MY GOD!
What are we doing to the youth of today! The part of this article that really blows me away is that this film is being distributed to schools as learning tool while ABC claims that some of it is a "dramatization" as in FALSE!

And if some of you don't have the time to read to the end......

"The 9/11 commission report echoes his denial, and found that Clinton's Cabinet gave "its blessing" for a CIA plan to capture bin Laden and determined that ex-CIA Director George Tenet squashed the plan.

The third contested scene focuses on Albright, who is depicted alerting Pakistani officials in advance of a 1998 U.S. missile strike against bin Laden in Afghanistan - over the objections of the Pentagon. The movie claims the tip-off allowed bin Laden to escape.

But the 9/11 commission reported that it was a member of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff - not Albright - who met with a senior Pakistani Army official prior to the strike to "assure him the missiles were not coming from India.""

The "Waffle"













"Waffle" at night

















The man
















Ok, so they had at least one dust storm...














There is a picture of a child under one here at Base Camp...
very inspiring. Also a woman who is pregnant. A friend in London who conceived her daughter at BM and I have talked about getting back with the young ones...but it's really the economics that have kept us. I am really sad I didn't go this year however and don't think I can let another year pass by.

It's awe inspiring.


Burning Man 2006

I miss the Playa! Have been in touch with a few LA folks who went this year..but no pics yet.
However, there are many online you can find - I think everyone agrees that the most amazing structure this year was built by some Belgians and wrongly nicknamed "the Waffle".

Some other good coverage out of San Francisco of course. A better description of the "Waffle" than I could give.

I heard from someone who has gone for 9 years, that this was an amazing year on the Playa.
The technology in the middle of the dessert. The weather....the people, the community.

I would like to get home next year or at least 2008.
Who's with me.....

"intersex" fish

Seems people may be getting up in arms about the possibility that this could happen to humans. Or is it already? Intersex fish

Just a quick note about the passing of Steve Irwin
who was truely living his life to the hilt...doing what he loved.
He was a great entertainer, animal lover and friend of the Wiggles and he will be missed. Hopefully one of his kids will follow in his footsteps.
