Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

He's No Geo. Washington, But He's Real
Elizabeth Spiers notes the latest from the Arab News, quoting James J. David. Her take?

Funny how the Arab News conveniently manages to produce an inarticulate idiot with an American name to support whatever absurd allegation they happen to be pushing at a given moment. I'm just waiting for "Mr. George Washington" to write a column on why the U.S. is a failed experiment and should be annexed by the far more capable Saudis.

Believe it or not, James J. David is real. He is a contributing writer to Media Monitors Network which was founded and is edited by Muhammad Ali Khan. From the MMN website we find that--

"MMN was established in California, USA, in October 2000 and is destined to become a major platform for serious media contributors and observers from around the globe. MMN is not sponsored by anyone influential and does this intentionally so that we will not be 'forced' into one opinion or another."

Gosh, golly, gee! It sounds refreshing, doesn't it?! Of course, you might not want to write a letter to the editor in Hebrew. The opinion MMN's writers have of you was not forced on them; it is one they chose alllll by themselves.

By the way, according to this article he wrote in the January 12, 2002 issue of NileMedia, David is retired from the Georgia Army National Guard.
