Today it's 96 degrees. At least there's air conditioning. A letter to write, photos to edit, exercise, and take more photos, weather permitting.

Browsed very briefly on the wiki leak site. Stunned and saddened by the war, by the losses people sustain here and there. What can I do? I'm an artist- can't nurse wounded people, I'm not a politician, though I do sign petitions, call my congressional reps, and attempt to do something however minimal.

Liked the film Pirate Radio. The music a joy: invigorating and fresh my favorites in one film; the sea and great music, and some chaotic anarchy.
