No more Taliban? Has anything really changed in Afghanistan?

Saw the following headline today at Slice of Laodicea:

Afghan Man Faces Death for Allegedly Converting to Christianity

Call me a cynic when it comes to US foreign policy, but a lot of the hype over it is at very least misdirected.

One show that I sometimes listen to...

One show that I've found to be interesting to listen to is Issues, etc.. It's a show put on by a radio station funded by the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, and is available in podcast form as well.

If anyone happens to listen to the White Horse Inn, the host of Issues, etc., Todd Wilkin, has been on that show a number of times.

Missing: one toque

Assuming that you're properly equipped, a little -9 shouldn't be enough to keep you indoors. In fact, today a roomate and I ended up on a spur of the moment 20 km hike up to a cave (take that, you crazy railfan). Anyways, somewhere in the back of that cave now resides one toque - I discovered that it was missing on the way out, but it probably would have taken at least half an hour to retrace our steps in hopes of finding the thing and we were running out of light.

Anyways, photos are in the usual place. On our walk down the road leading to the "trail" (there really wasn't one), we managed to violate the 0 km speed limit, and then in the cave found a two-armed stalagmite. Getting in and out of some parts was a little tight but all in all it was a good time. Not quite the tourist-trap caves that Vickie visited before...

I think that Darren might appreciate a license plate like this one

Sucks to be Dave

Browsing Environment Canada, I notice Calgary: -9 and snowing. This while we're basking in a very sunny, beautiful day. Not that it matters; it's Sunday so I can't go railfanning anyway!
