A few months ago my reenacting club, the ACWA, did a reenactment at Fort Point.  For those of you who don't know, Ft. Point is a Civil War fortress located under the Golden Gate Bridge.  We've been reenacting at Ft. Point for years, but this time was special.  It was the first time in forty years that the National Park Service has allowed someone to stay in the fort overnight.

That's right.  An overnight reenactment at Ft. Point.

One of my conservative friends recently spoke out in defense of torture.  This shouldn't even be a subject of conversation among civilized people and the fact that talking heads on Fox News think this is up for discussion just shows how much they've lost touch.  But in case you need convincing, here's my argument.

First of all, it's not "Dude."  It's Little Dude, His Dudeness, the Dudester, or El Duderito if you're not into that whole brevity thing.

Baby pictures are up.

Thank you for your patience.

I'm a cereal reader.

I was introduced to this term by my LSAT tutor.  It means a person who can't sit still long enough to even eat a bowl of cereal, without some sort of external stimulus.  So I'll read the cereal box, carton of milk, whatever is within reach.

Lately I've been feeding Nathan a lot, an activity which entails sitting there with nothing to do and both hands full for 15-20 minutes (including burping).  My solution: watch TV.  I've already made it through the first five seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation, plus caught up on several new shows which deserve mentioning.

We just got back from a long weekend visiting Yelena's folks in San Diego.
