illstillbe - LOL! But you forgot the part about...oh never mind...:-)

Dog I've just turned on Fox, and they are covering the scene too.

Mr. Mulliner - That e-mail ..have you thought of the connection yet?

There is a Gettysburg story similar to the one you told about Tod Carter...but with an extra sad twist, as if one were possible for all these kind of C.W. stories...

A young man from Gettysburg left his northern home to join the Confederate forces...that's where his sympathies lay...

So that July 1863 found him back in the small Pa. town and an early casualty of the battle, killed only a few yards from his boyhood home.

Man ... and to think I waited in line at the pharmacy .... picking up *sparkles* pills ... and had to listen to a guy complan it was taking too long for his prescription to be filled ...

Perspective needs a bit of refreshing, I think ....

OK ... what did I forget?... *grins* ....

Please don't think me an idiot, but I'm not remembering what e-mail and what connection.

I watched some Fox News at my parents' place and expected to come back to this thread abuzz about Arafat's compound being under seige. Is everyone discussing this elsewhere? Seemed like big news, although I didn't see anything about it on CNN or MSNBC when I flipped over a few times.
