Good day and welcome to this week's edition of Laura's Links. I know I talk a lot about how busy things have been over the week, and I hope that's not a bore. But I was having lunch with a friend today and going over my partial to-do list while we looked at her spectacular photographs from her recent trip to Tuscany. We flipped through a bunch of spectacular views, and I gave her updates about one of my ongoing "things". Then some magnificent cathedrals and statuary, and me updating her about one of the other big things. Flip, flip, Venice canal, and there's me, talking about one of the things with the kids.

In the midst of our seventh birthday celebrations at The Mark Steyn Club, thank you for all your comments about this month's Tale for Our Time. Stéphane Erler, a First Week Founding Member back with us for his eighth year, writes from Taiwan because he is curious about what is in these mysterious "papers" everyone is so het up about: I really wonder what kind of terms were in the papers that Jane Finn hid: - release 30 dangerous war prisoners for every dead hostage, which is a license to kill to the remaining hostages, - give the fanatics all the land they want in exchange of peace, - send tons food and medicine to cities under siege and still firing rockets on parks for children.
