"Today, President Barack Obama is facing the kind of decision Kennedy never got to make: Whether to heed his military advisers and double down on U.S. military involvement against an indigenous force in an Asian country run by a corrupt government, or whether to limit involvement to advisers and air warfare only, some mixture of both options or to pull out entirely." - Marie Carnes from Bookmarklet

Insightful AND patronizing. As one commenter said: "This reads oddly when compared with some of the regular posters’ blogs. I need some background and context. Otherwise, anyone in an office could write such a piece and replace Kabul with Washington, ministry with agency, or warlord with K St. lawyer… Nothing here is particularly out of place in ANY organization." - Marie Carnes from Bookmarklet

Just how I imagined it: "Nicola Solic is a Reuters photographer based in Croatia. He was embedded with the U.S. Army’s Alpha Company, 3rd Brigade of the 10th Mountain division in Afghanistan’s eastern province of Logar. Here he recalls a day he spent with a unit tasked with finding and detonating insurgent-laid bombs or IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) and the moment when the vehicle he had been travelling in that morning was hit by a bomb." - Marie Carnes from Bookmarklet

@johndstearns Wow! Congratulations! I had no idea you were a dancer.
@kiyoshimartinez You are such a good person. I am so proud to know you (even if only on internet.) Good luck.
@Karoli I wish I could send you some (not all) of this cold, damp weather. Then you could send us some of your hot, dry weather.

Bad day. But, I'm much better now.
@ExpertParalegal Those M&Ms in a can would be hard to resist if you get a case of the late night munchies. I like that can.
@MillerC Hang up. Assume any call from someone you don't somehow know is at best, a data mining scheme. Or at worse, something.. worse.
@lisawhelpley Apple cider, I suppose. Or maybe tequila sunrise for the colors.
@sjrbreaking Could you please indicate when your links on Twitter direct to your facebook page instead of sj-r.com? Thank you.
