• Commented on Afghanistan: US discouraged inquiry into mass killing of Taliban prisoners

  #7 - MOO cards are little calling cards that Flickr users can get printed up based on the contents of their Flickr photo sets. I'm not sure why the photographer handed one to the police officer, though......
• Commented on Bad Old Days: Kodak Disc 4000 Camera
