Wednesday Wanderings

Well, I must say that I am pleased to hear that studies now find that coffee provides significant health benefits.  The New York Times reports that coffee may have more antioxidants that other touted foods such as blueberries, grape juice, oranges or raspberries.  It apparently may add years to my life! Viva Java!

Michael Totten is back in the Middle East to get a first-hand look at the Israel-Lebanon border.  To get a feel for life in the war zone of Northern Israel read this recent posting.  And consider donating some money to help finance his trip!

And to top things off and keep you centered, watch "Make Mine Freedom" a 1948 film at Google Video. Hat tip to Greg Mankiw.
