Stuff I ran across today

1. Others have not forgotten. It has now been 229 days since John Kerry promised to release his military records.

2. A few days ago I posted a link to a National Geographic article published last Fall which, writing in the past tense, described what then seemed to be a prescient chronicle of the events in New Orleans. Here is a sample: Thousands drowned in the murky brew that was soon contaminated by sewage and industrial waste. Thousands more who survived the flood later perished from dehydration and disease as they waited to be rescued. It took two months to pump the city dry, and by then the Big Easy was buried under a blanket of putrid sediment, a million people were homeless, and 50,000 were dead. It was the worst natural disaster in the history of the United States.
Now it looks like it won't be that bad.

3. This look good? Unfortunately, this isn't on my diet anymore. Anything that starts with a pound of bacon is alright with me.

1 lb bacon
1 loaf bread
1(16-oz) ctn sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 lg tomato (take out seeds & juice)

Fry bacon until crisp. Cool and break into small pieces. Dice tomato.
Mix sour cream and mayonnaise.
Add tomato and bacon pieces.
Toast 1 loaf of bread and cut in triangles. Serve toast on side for dipping.
