For the second day in a row, the mercury climbed into the 70’s in Terre Haute. Of course, that means two things: Shorts and a car wash. Happily, I indulged in both.

After seeing We were soldiers this evening, I realized just how desensitized to gore I am. The only really gruesome scene in the movie was when a soldier’s charred skin slid off of his legs as he screamed in agony. There were other blood, violent scenes, but no others that really got to me. That said, I would never want to be in a situation to see such events firsthand.
