Week-long absence = tough luck

That's right: for you, tough luck. And I don't have much to add at the moment.

Great little piece in the Times yesterday that I didn't get around to putting up till now. It's about a handful of restaurant workers, ethnic minorities, who lost many friends and coworkers in the Trade Center attacks, and now find themselves serving hors d'oeuvres to RNC delegates who throw around "September 11th" willy-nilly to justify their ultra-priveleged reactionary politics.
