From the Nation, Bangkok’s English language newspaper: Fire drill goes awry Lance Corporal Bunlert Polphra, a police commando from the elite Arintharat unit lowering himself from a helicopter and hitting the ground during a fire-rescue exercise at the Police Aviation Division yesterday.

I’m sure an international protest will soon follow....

I actually shed some tears when President Bush choked up and when the bagpipe played “Amazing Grace”. I lost it completely when Nancy Reagan went up to say goodbye one last time.
