I need shootin'!

Whilst wandering around my favorite blogs Monday afternoon, found Rand linking Iowahawk again. Seems the Zarkman was liveblogging the Iraq election. As usual, put yer cup down or go bring in another keyboard! One of the links on the Zarkmeister spoof was some Iraqi lovin'. That link opens directly into Windows Media Player and if you have curious kids around, I recommend you encourage them to be elsewhere for a minute or you may find yourself being asked some uncomfortable questions!


No more Western music, Iran president decrees

‘Indecent’ artists like Kenny G. to get boot off TV, radio airwaves

TEHRAN, Iran - George Michael, Eric Clapton and Kenny G. will no longer be heard on Iranian airwaves after hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad issued a decree banning Western music from the country's radio and TV stations.

The official IRAN Persian daily reported Monday that Ahmadinejad, as head of Iran's Supreme Cultural Revolutionary Council, ordered the enacting of an October ruling by the council for Western songs to be banned.

"Blocking indecent and Western music from the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting is required," according to a statement on the council's official Web site. [snip]


Kenny G? He's the only one that sounds Persian! If you want to read some humorous comments about Ahmadinejad's decree, the troops over at the Free Republic have some goodies.

I got a phone call yesterday evening from a friend offering me my pick of three 8 week old pups. Supposed to go over this evening and select one. The black male sounds good, just don't know if I'm up to trying another wolf hybrid again. Starting this young it might be possible to territory bond one but I doubt it. With my very limited experience and lots of observation over years, the wolf characteristic of extreme independence certainly isn't conducive to training. Donno. It'd certainly brighten up Rima's life and lord have mercy is she ever a homebody!
