what passes for snow

The accident count from yesterday’s trip back from DC (where the roads were much worse):

8 SUVs

6 cars

1 pickup

1 taxi

1 “articulated lorry”

1 police car

The police car got stuck turning around in the median and managed to stop traffic in both lanes and had to be pulled out by the Marshall fire department. They all leaned out the window and gave the embarrassed cop the golf clap as they drove by, before pulling him out – it was hilarious.

Dude! Check THIS OUT, from today's WSJ:

"An American military raid in southern Iraq uncovered a makeshift factory used to construct advanced roadside bombs that the U.S. had thought were made only in Iran. The find raises fears that Shiite Muslim insurgents across Iraq may be able to manufacture large quantities of such weapons on their own.

This find -- separate from one made in the southern city of Hilla a week ago -- is forcing U.S. officials to reassess their belief that such bombs were being built in Iran and smuggled fully assembled into Iraq."

AMAZING-- sounds like a BIG obstacle to the Iran case
