On the subject of airship hangars, I'm pleased to find (with a little light Googling) that Hangar One is still in existence at Moffett Field, CA, though apparently under threat. It was built during the Depression to house the (helium filled) USS Macon, the last of the US rigid dirigibles.

And we’ll sing hallelujah
At the turning of the year


Singing in this fashion would appear to force the year to end with an 'aargh', or at least an 'ah' which sounds too close for comfort. A Happy New Year to all, regardless.

In a just world, Richard Cohen would go to his grave with these words as his epitaph.

Isn't this sentiment just a little harsh? As I read it, Richard was explaining his opinion as it was back at the start of the Iraq war. He was far from being the only one who thought invading Iraq was a good idea at the time. At least he has the courage to admit in public that he got it wrong back then. That is more than can be said of many others who remain in the public eye.
