is this the Best Week Ever?

What a strange week. The convergence of Holy Week, St. Patrick's Day and the 5th Anniversary of the Iraq War and the start of the NCAAs in a span of a few days. As an ESPN-watching Irish American Christian Pacifist* where should I put my energy?

on the campaign of course.

Here is Bob Knight on who will win the tourney.

Here are some readings for Holy Week.

Here is a constantly updating cost of the Iraq War. Here is an article just in time for the anniversary celebrations.


* okay I am not really a pacifist. I am a realist and a proponent of the spiritual discipline of active nonviolence and peacemaking, which is more nuanced and complex lacking simplistic formulas and answers. But, that makes for a lousy label.
