I dumped the whites again with everything else, screw separating them, if my wife doesnt' like it please tell her she can do the laundry if she wants to! <g> Fine George, you made a decision, but are you willing to live with the consequences? At least the pink shirts will match the pink jockey shorts.

Musharraf feels like a kid in a candy store doing the rounds collecting all kinds of goodies<g> Musharraf to rush to China, Saudi Islamabad, Sep 16 Pakistani President General Pervez Musharraf is to visit the country's two closest allies, China and Saudi Arabia, for talks on the crisis triggered by terror strikes on the United States, a foreign office official said Sunday. Musharraf could leave for China as early as Monday, the official told AFP on condition of anonymity. "The President is considering a short trip to both China and Saudi Arabia," he said. "The exact programme has not yet been finalised but he may leave for China on Monday." Pakistan and China cooperate closely on key international issues and Musharraf has already held discussions with Beijing's ambassador to Islamabad, Lu Shulin, on the aftermath of the US attacks. Musharraf's move to consult the allies follows a cabinet decision on Saturday to extend "full support" to a US-led campaign against international terrorism which is expected to involve military action against neighbouring Afghanistan, which also has a small border with China. Pakistan's support for the US -- dubbed "unqualified" by Washington -- has been accompanied by a stress on the need for any action to be sanctioned by the United Nations Security Council, on which China has a veto.

Come on, Michael, let's not lose our sense of humor. If we lose that too, the bastards clearly won! Admittedly it is difficult to keep a sense of humour given the gravity of the events. I look at my two young boys and wonder what the world will be like in 10,20,30 years. I was never so complacent to believe that terrorism would not strike us in North American, and I have always marvelled and been thankful for the lives we are able to live here. Back to my comment to you, it was partly inspired by the Finnish fiend (who I have summarily ignored, not because he bothers me but because he is a waste of my time). Bottom line, there is sharing of knowledge to a greater purpose and there is grandstanding which serves no purpose. We all need the former. Peace.
