...disgusted by the wimpy Democrats. I wish that they would crawl out from under their beds and stand up for something, even if it is a well-deserved kick for not voicing their opinions on the war, tax breaks for the wealthy, threats to our environment, deepening national debt, alienation of foreign countries and policies that benefit Big Business.

Iraqi irregulars have tried everything to get at 2nd Brigade soldiers. When two Bradley fighting vehicles got stuck in the mud, dozens of irregulars, armed with a machine gun, tow missiles and a chain-firing cannon, tried to crawl up to them. Another group attempted to paddle across the Euphrates river, shooting RPGs as they approached. Their five boats were blown apart on the water. All of these attacks ended similarly. "It's not a fair fight," says Major Kevin Dunlop. "Trucks with machine guns against tanks and Bradleys can only have one outcome. We are slaughtering them...

...squalid home. Upadhyay paints Ramchandra's fevered befuddlement perfectly as he tries to think through the unthinkable: "He had an urge to walk toward Tangal, knock on Malati's door and tell her not to come to his house anymore, that he could no longer tutor her. Or perhaps crawl into bed next to her." With little resistance from either party, Ramchandra and Malati are soon crawling, stumbling and falling into bed together. I'm not sure what the term is in Nepal, but in the U.S. it's called a midlife crisis...
