I re-found NBC reporter Richard Engel’s blog from Iraq: http://baghdadblog.msnbc.com/ Pretty good stuff.

Despite the names Lewandowski (my husband’s name) and Hoffman (my dad’s name), I’m Irish - really! My family has lots of Irish ancestors on both sides, so I love St. Patrick’s Day. I just came back from a trip to California to see family, and recovered the Family Tree Maker file I had lost (long story), so I’ll be getting back to genealogy research soon … as soon as my Media Law & Ethics class at ODU is over. Need to get that research paper done first.

In the meantime, enjoy the holiday!
