Traveling day
I’m still in LA, and the weather’s been utterly spectacular. Today is a travel day to northern California, so I’ll make this very brief.
The friends with whom I’m staying get the LA Times. It’s been a while since I’ve actually held a newspaper in my hand; six or seven years ago I transitioned to reading all my newpapers and periodicals online, and I only encounter the rare hard copy in airports or visiting friends, as I’m doing now.
There’s something I like about the actual newspaper, though; the ability to leisurely browse and look at each page, noticing smaller articles I otherwise would have missed.
Like today. On page A5 there’s an odd little item that caught my eye, a nearly-comic reversal of the far more ominous phenomenon of would-be suicide bombers caught and apprehended at the border because of bulges in their clothing:
A Palestinian woman wearing a strangely bulging robe was caught at the Gaza Strip-Egypt border trying to smuggle three baby crocodiles strapped to her waist, a border official said. The reptiles, their jaws tied shut, were apparently bound for a Gaza zoo, said Maria Telleria, a spokeswoman…”She looked strangely fat…”
The most I ever tried to smuggle across a border was some fruit from Arizona to California. And even then—decades ago—I felt so guilty I never tried again.
Mullah Cimoc say ameriki people republican party now waking and the fog remove off him brain.
How destroy usa too much. destroy mental and emotional of amriki people.
but usa media so control (google: mighty wurltizer +cia) never to asking how bush becoming president.

Cimoc’s the Jihad poster boy from blackfive.net
Just in case people was wondering.
I’ve smuggled Cuban cigars into the country…repeatedly.
Cimoc, sounds like you believe what is told you in a place with no free press.
I was fearful of breaking the law when I drove into California, many decades ago, so I dutifully placed my three apples into the trashcan. Sheesh!
I have linked to you, Ma’am, and made you a recipient of the Thinking Blogger Award. I know this will fill you with tremendous pride. ‘Course that may just be gas, but keep a good thought!
Love your blog! Love it!
Maybe someone could smuggle a vocabulary to Cimoc, that poor soul!
