I'm back (for real this time)!

Hey everyone. After a 4 and a half month absense, I have decided to return to the Urban Empire. I quit posting because blogging had just exhausted me and because of school I felt like I couldn't devote the needed attention to this site. But earlier today, I was doing some research on the recent policy shift by the Bush Administration on the issue of offering the Iranians various incentives in order to try and get them to abandon their nuclear weapons program. I stumbled upon this old post of mine from October 2nd of last year, which I think was remarkably prescient at the time. So that inspired me to take up blogging again. I'll have much more to come for sure.
