So, I don't have much for you this morning, my devoted Cake Eater readers, other than some interesting reading that should keep you occupied for a while.

• We have John Fund's latest entry on the Taliban Yalie from yesterday's Opinion Journal. It's windy, but it's quite good.
• There are two Hitchens pieces you NEED to read. The Stone Face of Zarqawi and My Ideal War (Jeff Goldstein has further thoughts on the latter piece.)

  I always find it heartening to read Hitch because he's so damn clear whereas others---whether they mean to or not---often obfuscate matters.

That should keep you busy for the time being.

UPDATE: And now for something completely different...

...a cache of over four hundred videos that is so freakin' wonderful I don't know where to begin.

A small sampling to tempt the palate:

General Public's Tenderness

The Fixx: One Thing Leads to Another

Psychedelic Furs: Love My Way

INXS: What You Need (It's off the Listen Like Thieves album which, just for some Cake Eater trivia, I still have on vinyl at the folks' house.)

For Mr. H., who remembers this video vividly, we have Berlin's Sex (I'm A)

For a bit of a Top 40 guilty pleasure, The Hooters' And We Danced

David and David's Welcome to the Boomtown (Curiously enough, I've heard this song about a thousand times, but I've never seen the video before now.)

Talking Heads Wild, Wild Life, which features a very young, relatively skinny, John Goodman.

I could go on, but go and explore for yourselves.
