The Flight 93 Memorial is very solemn and even small children seem to tune into the place and act very respectfully. Middle son goes to UPJ and the Memorial Park is on the way—have made several visits (taken relatives/friends). The most poignant was the original chainlink fence. The first time I went there, with boys/PaDad, it just was heartbreaking and inspiring to see the notes, signs, momentos left in fencing, so I understand Mr S being caught up in reading the boards. Volunteers from the Somerset area would keep track of the items left, and if something started getting weathered they removed it and the volunteers boxed the items up for safekeeping and historical reference.

(I am going to stop there and not go into the crescent shape issue).

Instead, ill reference ‘goodies’...going west from there, on Rt. 30 in Loughlintown is The Pie Shoppe. I highly recommend their cinnamon buns and pies!!!

We passed that up! I made a note of it because I was on the Ways and Means committee when son was in marching band. We took Pie Shoppe orders as a fundraiser. I still get their pamphlet in the mail several times a year.

Some guy calling in about fears about martial law. I just caught part of it. Probably not a legitimate concern, but I think it illustrates a healthy distrust of government. We should always be wary and keep government in its rightful place - small and in Washington and out of our business.

And why DOES Obama need to carry a Blackberry? (as Quinn was just asking).
