Not sure how, but yet another Jeefo (version A) attack made its way in to my system and slipped my detection until about 400 replications manifested. They are allegedly cleared, but the same files that I had DELETED (such as my svchost and the system volume directory for my other windows installation) resurfaced on the list of infected locations. Very confusing.

American deaths in Iraq have topped 800, and even though a pullout from Najaf is under way... insurgents are still firing on soldiers there. Meanwhile, Shahrestani has turned down the notion Brahimi seemed to be suggesting that he take the prime minister position. Now they are talking of delaying the list Brahimi makes for the interim government by two weeks, effectively delaying the transition of power (or simply installing a literally secret government that is disclosed a couple weeks after its installment).

And finally, it seems my friend Nick Mucci (who's blog is linked on the top-right of this site) has found us a house to dwell in next year. Go team.
