A FIRST CLASS story from the San Diego Union-Tribune

For those without relatives in the military, war news can become a blur of daily press briefings and TV news reports. For Teri Merickel, the conflict got up close and personal during a flight from Chicago. She walked aboard her United plane to San Diego behind a Marine captain who was with a young woman. The officer was carrying what appeared to Merickel to be a beautiful trophy in his arms. The two passengers were seated directly across the aisle from her.

I take back what I said about "7 Days in September" on A&E. It's not worth watching.

The first 10 minutes or so, it had some interesting footage. After that it descended into psychobabble and nothing new to see. Don't waste your time looking for a replay....I wish I'd watched the Dwarf Debate to see Kuchy give the peace sign.

I read youf link, it was so moving. How horrible it much be to take you cherished husbard home in a urn.

I was in tears after reading it. For the week coming up, I think I'll stock up on Kleenex.

That special tonight, DC 9/11 is also on at 11:00pm.
