Quick Hits...
I'm still enjoying my time in the real world, but here are two stories I just had to post:
The assassination of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto: In the wake of Musharraf's decision to "take off his uniform" (finally), this is the last thing anyone hoping for peace in the Middle East wanted. While few would be surprised that it happened, (you got the sense in Bhutto's interviews that she expected it to happen sooner or later), she will most likely go down as a martyr in the truest sense. I'm not certain if there is anyone like her around to fill the void, but this can't be good for the stability of the country. As far of the US is concerned, it's just another example of the Bush Administration being associated with allies who are as best pale examples of a stable modern democracy, and at worst very shady and borderline dictatorial. But Pakistan's story hasn't been written yet.
And this guy: a married man who slept with 13 women in one week. The doctor was right in calling him a "sociopathic sex addict" because not only is he's addicted to sex, he doesn't seem to care about how his actions effect those around him. Personally, I don't understand why people like this even bother getting married in the first place.
