zaterdag 7 september 2013 Up at 4:45. Saturday morning movie - Soultaker - MST3K style. Snack on left-overs in the frig. Watch Russia Today Documentary - My Son, Ex-Terrorist. For the past 20 years Ingushetia, the smallest and youngest Republic of the Russian Federation, has lived through several conflicts, anti-terror operations and a string of retaliations. Terrorists fight to create an Islamic State and young people are lured away to be trained to become terrorists and suicide bombers. It is only their mothers who never lose hope of bringing their sons from the forest hideouts and return them to a normal life. In the news, new fighting is broking out between rebels and regime forces on the outskirts of the Christian town of Maaloula in Syria. Report - Syrian Christian village in crossfire as govt forces try to squeeze out Al Nusra rebels. Finally, I catch up with Chris Hayes... The interview with John Kerry and the "odious morality" of Rep. Alan Grayson D-Fl. He has a petition - Don't Attack Syria.

Turn on KUOW to listen to Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me. I love the Not My Job segment. Chechnya; Czech Republic. Australia; Austria. Who can keep track? We ask the famed film director - Baz Luhrmann - three questions about a country he isn't from. I am invited to Cat City. Train down to Mount Baker station. Caui greets me first, but Max waits. Pete is upstairs cat-napping. Michael offers me some Beer Bread - a recipe from Wenatchee. Very yummy. Watch some MSNBC. Train back to d'town. Drop off stuff. Up to Value Village to buy some fancy shoes and slacks for the wedding in Ohio.

Value Village. 1525 11th Ave. They got it all. Right, Macklemore? Yay! Netflix has two seasons of Wilfred! Elijah Wood as Ryan Newman... "an introverted and troubled young man struggling unsuccessfully to make his way in the world until he forms a unique friendship with Wilfred, his neighbor's canine pet." Good night, earth.
