I'm changing my book. I'll be reviewing When My Name Was Keoko by Linda Sue Park, a novel set in Korea during the Japanese occupation. A great book. I'll read The Best War Ever and see if I can get a review together, but I trust my reviewing ability much more with fiction, so that'll be the one I concentrate on. If I do get the other one done, it'll be a bonus (maybe not necessarily for WWII day).

suggestion for the future, we need a pirate day. Probably on or near "talk like a pirate day" whenever that is.

I'm thinking of makeing a calender system that would mark what day(s) were theme events for each month and what that teme is.  It would also show who's said they (like to) help out.  Also could let you submit what article you want to write and have an e-mail aleart.  This, for various reasons, would have to be kept off site on my site.

Pirates of the burning sea?
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

A friend at work gave me a great idea, so next wednesday Im going out with a digital camera and doing a short photo-article on the new WWII memorial here in Washington DC.

I think that'd be a cool idea for the WWII D-Day day.

That's awesome. If we ever have a colonial/Revolutionary War day, I could shoot some patriotic Boston area pics (Old Statehouse, U.S.S. Constitution, etc.).
