Met a nice girl in the bar last night, sister of one of my college friends. Didn't really try hitting on her but was thinking about it; we had a good chat anyway. During the course of which she mentioned that she's basically working to save money to go to Oz in August. Curses.

Also, POWs on TV vs. Guantanamo Bay. I guess US soldiers aren't "enemy combatants" and are thus covered by the Geneva Convention.

Great that the war in Afghanistan is over as quickly as the Pentagon said it would be, eh?
