Oh, no - sorry to hear that. Hope you feel better.
I'm already feeling a little better just knowing everyone else here is having it last a fairly long time - I thought mine was too long, but it's about right. Get well, both of you!

Can you see it? Will they send out smoke signals? LOL - I imagine the courthouse is very cordoned off today. I probably couldn't get near if I wanted to.
It's less than a mile away. I'll be able to hear anything that might happen there...

I think if I sang you lullabies, if images of Helen Thomas are in your head you'll wake up in a cold sweat and screaming!

Oh, and by the way, Give Kristinn a hug, if you are lucky enough to get to greet him. Will do! I'm hoping I hear from him. Don't know how busy they're going to be, but I strongly suspect they're in my "neighborhood."

Do you think so? I wondered when I read that this morning if they would be anywhere near you, but figured "nah" - they said only the "good" parts, non-dangerous. Kewlio if y'all can get together!

When I think of all of our military men and women, including our own son
I had no idea your son was in the service, not to mention serving in Iraq. God bless, and thank him for his service!

Did you have a camera handy? Royalties work wonders in portfolios.
Switched to the news........my time zone forgives the difference and I get to experience morning in Baghdad in the evening......but nothing is breaking news.
Bilge!

Shia and Sunni alike want the guy to HANG. They really do? Who's gonna be fomenting the uprising? I suspect there'll be one, whatever this first verdict, don't you?

YIKES! Now I'm gonna worry even more. Hey, by the way, I love your tagline. Our idiot son managed to muddle his way through the ranks. They had a program called "hookd on satlite cumyewnikashuns". ;)
