Morning Update 7/8/06
Sorry for all that baseball stuff yesterday. I thought I had gone crazy until the Reds won. I've gotten through 18 episodes of Tsubasa Chronicles. I have nothing planned today except to watch more anime (which is a good thing).

DID YOU KNOW...
... that William T. Perkins, Jr. , a United States Marine who covered an exploding hand grenade with his body, is the only combat photographer to be awarded the Medal of Honor?
