Case-Notes from the Artsy Asylum

Malkin, Yon & the MSM Say"Everything I Know Is Wrong" Has it Right

...
Later I'll try to get back to the start and tell you why an blogger, coach, artist, mom feels like the Artsy Asylum blog is the place to talk about this, but for now I'm disappointed that while doing mundane things like transferring music from CDs to i-tunes I was missing what was going on out there in the real - non tech-absorbed world.

Then, when my first resource was Sean's blog: Everything I Know Is Wrong which headlined "Ding, dong, Zarqawi is dead!" you can understand my hesitation in deciding this Zarqawi story is legit. But Sean reports that "this one is said to be confirmed by matching scars and fingerprints"

In the meantime though, Michelle Malkin covers this from multiple perspectives and includes a video update

Plus, Michael Yon, who's the best single resource I've ever found had a long phone interview this AM with the highest ranking non-com with boots on the ground,

Find audio with Michael and Command Sergeant Major Jeffrey Mellinger here to listen to the conversation with about conditions on the ground in Iraq. » Here's the link to Michael's extensive phone chat on his website 

.Another positive note, while I flaggelate myself for time spent on superficial persuits like file transfers, my gut says that my boys in blue (ok, girls too - you know I know that) who may be the techiest people I know had something to do with the developments in Hibhib . . or wherever it turns out to have been. So being tech-centric isn't, I remind myself, an entirely bad thing.

 

Also worth checking out: the absolutely riveting Counterterrorism Blog - which is new to me but I doubt it will get old soon. Other good reads today include Polipundit,  Blue State Conservative, Indepundit,

The Blue Star Chronicles and not to be outdone - TMH's Bacon Bits offers: Prepare the Virgins
.
For something completely different: Mensa Barbie's Ask A True Persion about Jihad

FYI - Matt Lauer keeps his mind on Haditha. We sure wouldn't want to spend a minute praising a job well done before we return to focusing on other issues that are as yet clear as mud.

OK - back to more pleasant things than Matt Lauer - like art - and blogging - and Inspire me Thursday - and just being a proud American blue star mom.
