A present from my art director, Jan Yamanaka. Go send her freelance work so she can pay for this.
The war gets personal
Over at Baristanet.com, where I spend most of my online time, I created quite a storm with a post about Army recruiters showing up at the high school during lunch. So far, the 36-word post has attracted 33 comments -- and only three, as far as I can tell, are from my daughter.
I'd say Glen Ridge High School is probably a low-yielding proposition for the US Army, but the very idea of it creeped most of the locals out.
And not just the locals. Roxanne, whose niece is going off to Iraq, had (to put it politely) a strong reaction too.
