No word since 9/6/04. He said he'd call me the next day, but hasn't. I know if there was a problem somebody would tell me, but I still wish he'd call.

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Oh my gosh. That must be so hard. From one Mom to another. My prayers for your son. I hope he calls really soon. I will keep him in my thoughts.

Police guard their faces from the intense heat of a burning oil pipeline near al-Fahhama, Iraq. The east Baghdad oil field was reportedly blown up by saboteurs.

Radix, this caption begs your comment.

A sailboat sails off into the sunset on Lake Winnebago in Sherwood, Wis., and what a sunset it is.

Button up your wool coat: Fall has barely begun, but it's already snowing in Davos, Switzerland, forcing shepherds to move their flocks to lower elevations.

[Soaring Feather]

Nothing like a pig roasting in a pit. We used to do that every fall. Folks came from miles around to have a large Fall blast.

Great pictures of the air show, and the USS Kennedy, EMB. Severa...did you and the boys get to see the air show?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hey, Carl.....just in case Meekie already went to bed....I sure could use a cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows. The snow has melted and been replaced with rail.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, TM, for the fresh coffee, in the "perfect" mug, and inspiration for our troops.
