8/8/06: 3 Mile Run: Neighborhood

I listened to the latest Daily Source Code and Accident Hash. I discovered that I didn't win the video iPod as part of Adam's little contest. But, what the heck, it was worth $6.95 to try.

I heard on NPR recently that some of the sectarian violence in Iraq is motivated by folks ignoring cleric decrees for things like how to arrange vegatables in a store. Apparently, if you place celery and tomatoes too close together, it may be overly suggestive. And for this some must die. I would love to think this story is just wrong, but my gut says it is the truth. And, I fear that the sides keep forming up to fight the battle between the "west" and the "middle east". It is just so ridiculous and sad. There is no innonence to shared by those who choose to kill. I believe that sometimes one has not choice, but that doesn't make it right.
