Thank you for those kind words. I read your tagline, but I'm unsure what the meaning is. My son was home on leave from 11/6 to 11/22, and is now back in the sandbox. He's got about nine months before he comes home. I've also a nephew whose in Baghdad, and my brother-in-law's niece is there too. We have another nephew who completed one tour, and might be sent back for a second by next june. Busy family to be sure.

My tagline is a quote from an obscure science fiction show called "Firefly." The scene is two of the characters picking up firearms in preparation for a rescue attempt. One of the characters is Shepherd Derrial Book, who is a Christian monk of unknown denomination. ('Shepherd' is his title.) The full quotes are:

Zoë: Shepherd, isn't the Bible kind of specific about killing?
Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.
