Saddam Captured: It was pretty shocking, really, to turn on the t.v. this morning, and actually be surprised at the news. On some level, it isn't too surprising, since the chance of him being found was not really inconceivable. All the same, I personally thought he wouldn't be taken alive. If I was him, well, on some level, let's say, I wouldn't think he would want to be. Did he have any warning? What will he share? How will his trial be handled (imagine his defense counsel)? Time will tell. Today was a good day ... what it will all mean is unclear, but it's a good day.
