I started to post this under the "OT" banner:

but then realized life on planet includes EVERY creature we love to
see and encounter on this planet earth, so that the subject of really
very Ob Scuba.



On the eve prior to my departure to London, I wish I had known the
Aggressor (not the diving liveaboard, BTW) will be there will his
700+ entourage, and my visit may be greatly marred and restricted by
His Presence.   <Sigh>

I found the above link in a post in rec.travel.air today, with:

>  **Half of London's Police Will Be Guarding Bush...

>  **250 U.S. Secret Service Agents Carrying Guns...

>  **Mobile phones may be blocked for periods of President Bush's visit
>  amid fears that they could be used to trigger a bomb

And UK is our ONLY real Allie in His Only War to use Saddam as
scapegoat for his failure to do anything about Bin Laden!


I saw Bush's visit to the Aussie Parliament in which several
members interrupted Bush's Mouth Dance and had to be told to be
"removed" from the floor.   I wonder why that didn't make much news
in the USA (as Jessica's "Hero" story did)?
