Sparrow says:
Soldiers die in four ways:
a) accidents
b) “friendly fire”
c) the enemy
d) suicide.
After a war,
they continue
to die from (a)
and (d).

Michele and I saw “Grizzly Man” yesterday.

It was worth the bargain matinee price but, as documentaries go, it was poorly constructed...however, the subject matter easily lures you in and the grizzly footage keeps you there.
I’m expecting much more out of this book I just started reading:

What a racket…
Michele’s sister gave us free tickets to the U.S. Open tonight. So, later on, we’re hopping the #7 Train to Flushing to check out the swanky scene.
Anyone think I’ll be mistaken for Andre Agassi? Some people have said he and I look alike...but the real test would be if I ran into Steffi Graf.
Tennis, anyone?
