| To Melrose and back. I hit a lot of red lights today.
Got a fixed-up dance pad from J-J, in exchange for one still needing modifications.
J-J was encouraging about advocating for a white/white or white/yellow relay at Osbornedale. And he is willing to participate in another bus stop O.
Rachel is getting her learner's permit! |

| Watched "Iraq for Sale". I was aware of the horrible war profiteering going on, but to see it spelled out was extremely disturbing. No-bid, open-ended contracts encouraging the Halliburtons to spend as much as possible because they get a percentage of every dollar spent. The total lack of accountability. Abu Ghraib. No concern for the safety of their employees or the soldiers they're supposedly helping. Though perhaps a relatively small thing, emblematic: insisting on serving meals at set times to minimize cost, resulting in really long lines and vulnerability to attack - could have been easily solved by going to a 24-hour serving schedule. And contractors taking over all the skilled jobs from Army personnel (for 8 times the pay or whatever). And more and more contracts going to those companies, no one seems able to stop it. They even made a killing in New Orleans, post-Katrina.
Recommended, if you can stand it. |

| Hiking 2:00:00 [2] | |

| with Peter in Ashburnham. 7 am start. Started running to warm up but got asthma, so eventually headed back to the car for the medicine, then went out again.
Handed off my rogaine duffel with tent etc to Peter, who will be driving up next weekend. Hopefully there won't be any problems with any of the contents at the border. |

| We did some running on the trails too. |
