It's good to see you!!!

Golfing is much like
watching water drip real slow
off an old pitched roof ...

May have found the little girl's body.

What the heck is going on in this country?

I have been pondering your comments about the TIPs program and your concern that it may be abused ... coupled with your thinking that it is incumbent on us all, as citizens, to report something we think might be useful in fighting the war against terrorism.

Recently, I realized I was in a position where I had to make just such a decision ... and made brief note of it here ... by reminding us all that, for the most part ... we are reasoned and thoughtful people ... though I admit that I occasionally stray from those vaunted traits ... HA! ... and we should trust our instincts.

To my point ... my concerns were taken very seriously ... response was immediate ... and, here's one of the most important things to remember ...

Equal time was spent making sure I didn't have a calcified Aunt Trudy stuffed in a trunk in my attic ... or a spacecraft made up entirely of dried Canna fronds and duct tape stashed not far from the bomb shelter I am digging with a spoon ...

Once those concerns were resolved ... things moved very quickly ...

My experience proved to me ... these are professionals ... and in a time of war ... they do not take chances.

I realize that I live very close to DC ... and this might have made a difference ... still ... ALL ... please ... please make the call!

Let others sort it out ... fall on the side of safety ... truly ...

But not if your play...it can be frustrating, exhilerating, exasperating, fun....love it.
