Quick and Dirty - Like My Ex-Girlfriends!

Instead of writing a post last night, I:

reviewed one hundred Arabic flash cards

watched Monday's episode of Chuck - wow!

cooked and cleaned up

downloaded every last scrap of Arabic material from the Defense Language Institute's Language Materials Distribution System

I'm not sure what tonight will hold, but hopefully it will be as productive. Here are a few of the stories that I've been collecting lately, just for good measure.
