I find it more than a little odd that Al-Jazeera’s web site has been down and un-reachable for days now… Granted I think that that site is even more of a propaganda machine for the other side as CNN is for ours so I don’t trust what they would say on there.. But even as [...]

Many of us lost a friend today…
Makes the other things in life seem so unimportant and trite… Makes me feel incredibly lucky to have the people around me that I do… Makes me feel like I don’t let them know that nearly enough…
Makes me happy to have seen his smile and his laugh [...]

Roller coaster day…
Alarm clock didn’t go off for some reason (or maybe it went off and I turned it off without bothering to wake up - you’d have to ask kevin)…. So I woke up EXACTLY when I was supposed to BE at the gym… throw on gym clothes and my contacts and flew down [...]

I keep starting to write something here about what is going on in the world and wind up getting flustered and sad and stop…
And now, with what the president said last night to the world and the iraqi response this morning (which couldn’t have been a surprise to anyone) it seems the path is set… [...]

LOL… So, just as I suspected - I’m still figuring out how I should be using this crazy thing and what kind of things I should be posting here and what kinds of things are going to require another forum… And, at the same time, Ray and Matt are (rightfully) busting my chops about going [...]
