Always the Last to Link
OK, OK I know that most of these links are a couple days old and that fifty other sites are already displaying them, but that doesn't take away a bit of the snazzy-ness they contain.
Blackfive has a wonderful recap of several Iraq news stories that the media has somehow missed while reporting all the bad news.
Sgt. Hook has a wonderfully written letter from a girl whose father was killed in Iraq. Very moving.
Spoons is covering a story about an American Officer who may be court martialed for going all Samuel L. Jackson from Rules of Engagement on a terrorist's ass, and hurting the terrorist's feelings in order to save his men's life. I think that what everyone is missing in this story is that the man did in fact clearly violate the UCMJ (military law). The UCMJ clearly states that anytime you threaten a bad guy or fire a weapon at him in close quarters, you are required to say a clever/cheesy one liner and/or be smoking a cigar at the time. He simply did not do this. Had he lit up a cigar, stabbed the man with a huge knife and said, "Stick around." he would be free and clear right now.
Also by way of Spoons, a site that analyzes your writing and determines your sex. My A.N.S.W.E.R. post received a score of:
Female Score: 324
Male Score: 2294
Grunt, grunt, scratch, scratch.
Jen has a post about the noble penguin. Truly the king of beasts.
Paul is in a bit of a mid-blog crises. Everyone needs to go over there to fan his balls and tell him what a great blogger he is. "Who's my special blogger? Yes you are."
My favorite Iraqi blogger, Zeyad, has a post about bringing back the Iraqi army. It's very well thought out, and would solve many problems.
The Army is continuing with a huge feakin' laser that can shoot artillery shells out of the sky. The laser along with a gun that can shoot around corners can be found here.
The CIA showed off some of it's gadgets. Among them is a laser guided, flying mechanical dragonfly. The kicker to this is that it was made in the 70's. I wonder what they have now.
And finally the Kansas City Star has an article about the exchange rate for blood. Finally it's fair you give a pint of blood, you get a pint of beer. Hey with less blood in you a pint of beer should go farther.
***Update***
There is a very good and suprisingly civil discussion occuring in the comments section of the article about the charged American Officer story. I'm one of the few people in favor of charging him.
