Yeah - here's a good read: http://slate.msn.com/id/2083847 "Baghdad was hectic when two blogging friends e-mailed me to suggest that I track down "Salam Pax."

For the heck of it, I put in the URLs of various blogs and public sites I have, and went on fantastic journeys cued from words or even individual letters. Try it out - tres cool! http://firmament.to ... Link Next page |
