I've heard quite a bit about the capture of Saddam. You can barely get away from it. It's certainly a positive development, but while we hear so much about fighting the war on terror, I've heard little on the UN nuclear disarmament vote that took place last week. The US voted against a comprehensive test ban treaty, the elimination of nuclear weapons, and an obligation of nuclear disarmament. Perhaps I'm missing something, but if we can go into other countries on the pretense that they have weapons of mass destruction, even if it hasn't been proven, why are we one of the few countries of the world opposed to disarmament?

For anyone interested (and I know someone who is), Angel was born in Buffalo. My aunt says his father lived on Summer St.

Here's the proof. My advisor Ling gave me the go-ahead to get my master's project bound!! This has been plaguing me for 1 1/2 years. I can actually wake up in the morning and not feel guilty that I'm not working on it. Time to celebrate.

Check out some of the new terms for 2003. I think my favorite is Sitcoms (Single Income Two Kids Oppressive Mortgage), but there are a lot of good ones. Anyone else have a favorite?
