June 30 - July 4, 2006
On September 11, 2006, 2,996 volunteer bloggers will join together for a tribute to the victims of 9/11. Each person will pay tribute to a single victim.
We will honor them by remembering their lives, and not by remembering their murderers.
If you would like to help out, either by pledging to post a tribute on your own blog, or by offering your services to promote this cause, just leave a comment here and I’ll email you the name of a victim.
Then, on 9/11/2006, you will post a tribute to that victim on your blog.
I have signed up and have received the name of the person I will be writing a tribute for on September 11th. There were 2,996 people murdered in the 9/11 attacks, it’s going to take 2,996 bloggers to write a tribute to them all.
If you would like to participate just click on the links below. There is a list of bloggers participating and instructions about how you can participate.
I think this is worth doing.

While the earthly fate of suicide terrorists is fairly clear, what exactly does the hereafter have in store for these killers? Jihadists are convinced that several dozen virgins await them in Heaven — which, if true, implies that Heaven is…

Don’t F#@K With The Russians…
History teaches that Russia is one of those countries that shouldn’t be fooled around with — a lesson that both Napoleon and Hitler learned the hard way. It should come as no surprise, then, that Vladimir Putin has called on…

Some Memoirs are Best Forgotten…
Since 70% of the occupants in Bruce’s house are female, chick films are a major hazard. In such cases, I always watch with Bruce as a form of moral support. He needed a lot for Memoirs of a Geisha. While……

Returning to reality, and assuming the likely continuation of our socialized educational system, a good step for its improvement would be to remove Gendron from her post. She believes that it is a good thing for high school students who can barely co…..
