Taliban Tooth Faeries fled the scene of an American encampment today near Bagdad, apparently with officer Herbie X. Misfit as hostage. Several muslim men wearing dental guards and roach clipped bibs were reported to have run in fast, nabbing the young soldier while flossing his teeth. Several American soldiers tried to stop the armed militants, but were numbed with novocaine, collapsing immediately towards drooling fits. For more information, check out local news programs or consult your local dentist.

when i was a child, i had a wiffleball set. we'd play baseball in the driveway, and sometimes, when feeling extremely barbaric, we'd sword fight with our yellow plastic weapons of mass destruction. It was harmless, yet innate fun.

sometimes i wonder about this. i wonder about the toys of other worlds and how children are raised.

i wonder if playing 'ball' as adults is the reason we are in iraq -- to bring our toys to them. i hope some day iraqi children can play wiffleball on the streets. i hope i see this day.

alice called. she said something about needing a blog. she found this site and the rest is history. history. history. we thought we'd post thoughts on the way things are unraveling these days and work from there. for a short time, anyway, it will justify a brief moment upon the stage. we are idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
