MSNBC also has a story and video.

I'm putting new stuff here today, below Hafiz.

Let Thought Become Your Beautiful Lover

Let thought become the beautiful Woman

Cultivate your mind and heart to that depth

That it can give you everything
A warm body can

Why just keep making love with God's child--
Form

When the Friend Himself is standing
Before us
So open-armed?

My dear,
let prayer become your beautiful Lover

And become free,
Become free of this whole world
Like Hafiz.

Daniel Ladinsky, The Gift, Poems by Hafiz

new stuff

End the War on Freedom is listed in the "more weblogs" section of zenweblog. Hi Cydniey!

The National Anxiety Center - 35 Reasons Not to Vote for Al Gore, Jr.: summary, he's a lying communist. If anyone knows of a similar list of reasons not to vote for George W. Bush, other than that he's a lying fascist, send it along. Remember, choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil. If you must vote, vote libertarian. [desk]

Joe Farah at WorldNetDaily - Who needs government? The story of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel, "one of the seven engineering wonders of the modern world." Funded by $400,000,000 in private bonds. No tax dollars were used. Paid for by a $10 toll. [wnd]

Angus Glashier is excited about the bridge-tunnel story, as well he should be (translation: I wish I'd said that). [latte]

George J. Bryjak at the Orange County Register - When cops think of themselves as soldiers: "Unfortunately, as the LAPD scandal has revealed, some officers are modern day gangster/soldiers operating from a militaristic world view that is more in line with totalitarian than democratic societies." [ocr]

Nat Hentoff at Jewish World Review - Crime's down, but arrests keep rising: Concerning the large increase in New York City of false arrests, especially of black & latinos. Some of the cops are tired of constant pressure to increase arrests from Herr Rudy and his police commissioner. Others use it as an excuse to be brutal. [wnd]

Dave's Picks today explores Waco, Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms. [picks]
