Ho-Hum And Pat Tillman

Ho-hum, dull day.
If she didn't have much going on, that's what my older sister, Gene (later, "Jean"), used to put in her diary back when girls kept diaries.  That's apropos for me here, as little went on in my life yesterday.  Stayed in most of the day, studying my lines for Arsenic, brushing up my play, Telephone (#1), and playing hidden object games on this, my little pal computer.  Got a bit more of my desk squared away and tidied up otherwise.
Talked to Aline and we made a date to go over to Atlantic County today.  Did take a drive in the late afternoon just to get out of the house, but other than that, I got nuthin'.
WIDER:  This juxtaposition is so insane I'm not even going to comment.
From Wikipedia:
New York Times reporter Dexter Filkins of Jon Krakauer's book Where Men Win Glory: The Odyssey of Pat Tillman noted that the book did well to compile the facts and "nauseating" details regarding the cover-up of Tillman's death. "After Tillman’s death, Army commanders violated many of their own rules, not to mention elementary standards of decency, to turn the killing into a propaganda coup for the American side," Filkins wrote.
From the NFL web site
ARIZONA CARDINALS to honor Pat Tillman with unique '40' decal.
The Arizona State University's Army ROTC Color Guard will present our nation's colors, while a field size flag will be unfurled during the national anthem, sung by 120 local military service members. The Cardinals will wear the number 40 on their helmets in memory of Pat Tillman, a former NFL player who was killed in action while serving in the United States Army.
