Yes We Can, Kinda...

Gonna Be Wars, I'm Sorry To Tell You There Will Be Other Wars...

We Are Gonna Have A Lot Of Combat Wounds, It's Gonna Be Tough...

That Old Beach Boys Song, "Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran"...

If you think think things are bad now, if we withdrawal you aint see nothing yet...

It was a good idea...

I don't think Americans are concerned if we are there for 100 years, 1,000 years or 10,000 years...

Maybe a Hundred? That's Fine With Me...

-Words courtesy of Senator John McCain

What the heck does Diondega mean?

Diondega is the original name of my hometown, Pittsburgh, PA. The name was given to us by the Seneca Nation in the 17th or 18th century. The word means "the forks" referring to the confluence of the Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio Rivers, where present day Pittsburgh has stood since 1758.

For the last several years, my close friends have often referred to Pittsburgh as Diondega. The name has become a rallying cry in our mission to transform a dying rustbelt town of into a vibrant, diverse, and economically competitive 21st century metropolis.

412 is the area code for the Pittsburgh region, if you were curious. My original blog The Diondega Journal has been on hiatus since summer 2005. Think of Diondega 412 the remix version.
