Achilles handshake

To quote Eddie Izzard, "He suffers from hand-squeezy death!"

And can I just say... I can't get over this Bush quote. It HURTS MY BRAIN.

"I'm honored to, uh, shake the hand--of a brave Iraqi citizen who had his hand cut off by Saddam Hussein." --May 25, 2004 at the White House.

It just makes me cringe... it's ten times worse than throwing up on the Japanese prime minister's lap ("Bushusuru"). So... I'm sorry, world. *I* didn't vote for him.

Lacey,

Welcome to the blogosphere! If you read "My First Blog Ever", you'll notice that I am relatively new at this too.

I like your writing (a kudo I don't often give). You words flow with an ease that not too many writers, even published writers, can achieve. I look forward to reading more though the semester and beyond. If you check the links on my blog's sidebar, you may find some of the sites that I read (almost) daily of interest. Additionally, if you leave them comments, you'll find that they may reciprocate on you posts. It's an excellent way of getting quality feedback.
