DC PICS

So I went into D.C. with a couple of guys I met at Orientation. We went to the World War II Memorial. One of the guys I was with said, " No matter what you think of Bush, you have to admit this was one good thing he did" and the other guy retorted, " This is just another tool in his war mongering agenda to deceive Americans into thinking we belong in Iraq." Either way, I think that it was a long overdue and touching tribute A million stars for a million lives. The Third pic is from the Korean War Memorial. The last pic is, of course, the Lincoln Memorial.

When I was riding the Metro Subway System in D.C. I kept seeing advertisement signs for war planes, armor, and missiles and I thought at first how strange to see that instead of GAP and McDonald's. Then it hit me. This is the town where a small handful of people decide the fates and locations of our armed forces and whose lives we will disrupt and mangle next. It makes you feel a little uneasy as you look around at your fellow riders.
