I love people who leave their reciepts at the ATM. It's so fun looking at annonymous balances and wondering who the people are.

The person with $65.00 in their checking account - if I saw them on the street would they come off as being a wealthy person somehow. Maybe they spend all their money on looking like they have money.

the person who had $11,850 in their checking account - who is that? Is that a business account or their personal, primary account. And if the latter, why in the world keep that in a checking account?

Usually, people have more money than me.


Jewel Bako
Mrs. Robot treated me to dinner the night at Jewel Bako. It was pretty sweet - they had tons of specials that night (the fish importer guys apparently had been good to them).
You like sushi? Check it out. Fine place, uber-friendly staff and owners, and some talented people cutting the fish.


War
Still happening.
The New Yorker has a great series of articles this week from reporters in Iraq. Some of it is actually kind of heart-warming.
Letter From Baghdad


Here is my letter to Baghdad:

Dear Baghdad,
Hi, how's it going? I suppose that is insensitive to ask when I know that you are being bombed like a MF as we speak.
This is a pretty strange war, eh?
Well, if I can speak for one American, I want you to know that we hope you make it through this crap in one piece - most of you seem like real nice folks.

Your pal,
me


Torture
pow jessica was tortured
I just read the article about the female POW they resuced in Iraq. I am horrified at the thought of female POWs being tortured... just the thought makes me get cranky and angry.
I know I should be horrified at the thought of anyone being tortured, but, well, I just like girls better than boys.
Ugh.


Brits 3. Iraq 9


War. It's bringing me down.
