Real Men Wear Pink Boxers~David Bauder~Spc. Zachary Boyd (in pink boxers) keeps watch from behind sandbags at his post in Afghanistan's Kunar province. "I was always telling him to pull up his pants," Sheree Boyd recalls. "I would give him a wedgie to make him do it. As a mom, you want your son to look nice. But he has always been one to run around in his boxers."
If Spc. Boyd wasn't mortified to appear in boxers on the front page of The New York Times, he might be when he hears his mother talking about wedgies.
Mistruths abound
~Thanks Katrina
~And recently, Congressman Joseph Cao sent a letter to President Obama stating "Charity Hospital was completely destroyed by Hurricane Katrina..."
I'm not sure why a Congressman would make such an inaccurate statement unless he's in cahoots with the "let's build shiny new hospital" krewe. Shame on him if he is.

~Loren Scwerd's Katrina houses. "My current project, Mourning Portrait, began as a series of memorials to the communities of New Orleans that were devastated by the federal levee breaches that followed Hurricane Katrina. These commemorative objects are made from human hair extensions of the type commonly used by African-American women that I found outside the St. Claude Beauty Supply store," says Schwerd. "The series began with the small houses. Working from my own photographs, I create metal armatures that act as frameworks for weaving the hair into portraits of the vacant houses of the Ninth Ward neighborhood. By documenting private homes, I venerate the city's losses, both individual and collective."Shotgun: Part 2 of post-Katrina drama trilogy~Susan Larson
