In today's NYTimes, an almost-fascinating-enough piece on Shades of Green, the customized mouse-ear experience for military personal and their families. Such a great gesture. Here's a taste:

Although Major O'Rourke's Iraqi quarters were hardly spartan--he lived in an air-conditioned trailer with satellite TV--they didn't rival his family's here. Rooms are on a par with those of top-level Disney resorts charging $350 a night, but cost as little as $89.

The only element too reminiscent of Iraq, he said, was being woken up by the late-night fireworks in the Magic Kingdom. "I swear to god," he said, "it was just like an artillery barrage."

Oops.

Thanks tortor for the tip!
