Al-Reuters: “United Nations officials found vials of dangerous chemicals, which had been removed from Iraq a decade ago, in a UN building in New York, but UN officials said on Thursday there was no danger.”

Whoops: al-Reuters just revised that to “vials of a chemical warfare agent.” That’s some fine editing there. In the future, they might want to try editing before posting online, but that’s their business.

Crawford County declared disaster area by President Bush

They really should toss some adjectives or something into that headline–something to clarify and specify. Maybe “Flood-ravaged Crawford County declared disaster area by President Bush.” Something to make it less of a general statement.

Otherwise I might write my commissioners and get the ball rolling on this: “Bush Justice Department declared disaster area by Crawford County.”

I attended a friend’s wedding in Ohio over the weekend.

A traditional Catholic wedding–my first in a long while.

Very similar to weddings in some of our United Methodist congregations, except in this one a man got married to a woman.
