Saturday, April 15

Nera's birthday today and we celebrated by having breakfast at the Deloraine Deli, and cutting the birthday/Easter cake we won at the Church Fete.

The news this weekend is full of the exciting news that Our Donald has
dropped the world's biggest bomb on some hapless cave-dwellers in the Middle East. I'm sure the Freudians are rubbing their hands with glee with all the sexual overtones in Donald's choice of weapon. I can't get the tune of Andy Stewart's 'Donald, Where's Yir Troosers?' out of my head.

The bomb is apparently called MOAB. It's launched from the belly of an aircraft and slides out on a heavy metal sled. When it leaves the 'plane, the bomb falls away from the sled which is lowered to the ground on a parachute. Just as well, a heavy steel object like that could do some damage if it hit somebody on the ground.
