This is a story thas caused me to tear up this morning. The anger in the one man's voice who was a survivor got to me. In collage, I did a paper on My Lai and at the time I felt strongly that it was a result of the evils of hierarchal organization. And now I still feel that party, but with age I also put more blame on the individuals. But understanding this capacity for evil still eludes me. I understand people making mistakes and doing the wrong things for what they believe to be the right reasons, but it's hard for me at least o ever imagine killing in the sort of intimate, indescriminante way as ever justifiable. It saddens me though, and I feel the anger as well.

Xbox: LEGO Star Wars
Xbox: LEGO Star Wars
I wasn't all that interested in this game even though I love my Star Wars Legos, but it actually sounds pretty good. I think I will eventually pick it up.

The view of Taman Negara from the top of the hill
Wow! Looking at this now, it seems unreal. That day I had hiked up this to see the view and there were actually some Malaysian guys who were on the trail too. Other then that I don't think I saw any Malaysian tourists in the park.

I want to come back and look at these more. And I'd like to add one for Seoul.

Could this start a whole wave of data center art? Maybe just in my dreams! But who knows what ideas could be sparked? Think about learning about the NOC school in some art history class 30-50 years from now.

Boing Boing: Why new US passports can be read without permission
Boing Boing: Why new US passports can be read without permission
This is disturbing on a number of levels. This is the US government making deciscion based on face saving? Not a first I'm sure, but still wouldn't it be better to admit the mistake now and move on, rather then having to correct it later in future administration. Uggh!

Boing Boing: Star Wars geeks in line at Grauman's will answer payphone calls
Good for them. I waited in line for Episode I at the Coronet here in SF and it was well worth it. Of course, none of us knew what to expect, but it was Star Wars. Though after the last two movies it would be hard to work up the enthusiam for III
