At least the Iraqis are civilized

Seriously, it is encouraging to see how modernized those people are. Does it seem to anybody else that they are just a haircut and some 20th (or 21st) century clothes away from being savages?

Politicians, tribal and religious leaders and soldiers watched displays of military prowess and one demonstration, hailed as a display of courage, in which five soldiers stopped before the grandstand to bite the heads off frogs.

A sixth holding a live rabbit slit open its stomach and ate its heart before tossing the carcass to his comrades to chew on.

Nevada: We need MORE guns in schools

Fri, 15 Dec 2006 16:05:39 GMT

Nevada state senator Bob Beers has a hair-brained idea that allowing teachers to carry guns in schools might somehow act as a deterrent to school violence.

I love guns, I have several, so I am not at all anti-gun. But, the idea that putting more guns in school, in the hands of teachers no less, could somehow help the situation is asinine.

There has to be a smarter solution to this problem.

Intro to Aaron's House

Sun, 10 Dec 2006 06:03:39 GMT

Welcome to Aaron's "house". I am one of the creators of InstantSpot and I created this Spot to have a place to post more personal stuff and less tech/work-like stuff. (see my other Spot here)

I also intend to use this Spot as a test bed for designs using the Style Manager in the InstantSpot control panel. So, things might just look a little crazy from time to time.

I am going to try and keep this Spot simple...just a blog and some photo galleries. (I hope to get some pics of my family, Jeeps, etc posted to my photo galleries soon.)
