...join the others after picking up our tickets. Caroline, of course, wants everything in sight. I veto a small bat, which I imagine her using on her infant brother Jack, and also a souvenir ball because it's too hard. In consolation she winds up with a bright red bear wearing a Spinners T-shirt...
...this reason and all the obvious ones, I get no sleep. Caroline sleeps in fits, waking to vomit occasionally (a usual aftershock of concussions), to tinkle, to cry for Mommy or for Piggie, her constant companion who, unfortunately, is at Grandma's, equally desolate.

But the trial will be a challenge to the international community, too. It was relatively uncontroversial, in the end, to bring economic pressure to bear to deliver the universally reviled Milosevic to trial after he'd been driven out of power. But it won't always be that way when it comes to other deserving candidates for war crimes trials. And the international community's actions to ensure Milosevic's delivery to The Hague create...
