My friend and co-worker, Mark, read my "Statue of Liberty" blog and pointed out this speach from 1966, which is about how security doesn't always come at the barrel of a gun. It is often better pursued through diplomacy and shared interests. It's a good read.
I mentioned recently that I'm reading books by Daniel Quinn. I highly recommend them. I saw The Story of B at Half Priced Books on Lane Ave for about $6 the other day.
Last night, Anna and I saw Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring at The Drexel East. Good film.
