Sometimes the satire web-zine The Onion is almost too much. The coverage they gave the war was almost too real.

Some headlines include:
Dead Iraqi Would Have Loved Democracy
Vital Info On Iraqi Chemical Weapons Provided By U.S. Company That Made Them
U.S. Continues Proud Tradition Of Diversity On Front Lines

It's a shame when The Onion and The Daily Show provide some of the best commentary and editorial on international politics within US media.

Richard Crawford, Rest in Peace
An avid graffiti photographer, Richard Crawford of Corvallis Oregon, passed away
unexpectedly on February 23, 2003. He leaves behind a legacy of photos, a legal wall, and many people who he managed to persuade to give this artform a chance to coexist with society. He will be sorely missed.

Speaking of LA, Asylm.sh has a whole new look, new stuff.

Kelzo's up to some new thangs too.

In San Francisco, the cops shot a bunch of protesters and dock workers (!) with "non-lethal" weapons. The military has threatened to shoot to kill any protesters that try to enter Vandenberg Air Force base.
