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.

Iraq Satellite Jamming Devices Destroyed

CAMP AS SAYLIYAH, Qatar - Six satellite jamming devices, which Iraq (news - web sites) was using to try to thwart American precision guided weapons, were destroyed and have had "no effect" on U.S. military operations, a U.S. general said Tuesday. [...]

I wonder how long it will be before Russia asks for compensation.

Or how long before Reuters or AFP writes that since these devices still exist as smoldering piles of wire that they were not actually destroyed, and therefore the mission was a failure and a setback and another example of quagmiritude.

I give it about another hour or so.
