Uhm, Peggy, if you're reading this, what I said about you the other day was meant as CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. :)

Wow!

That about says it.

Woman is the best there is. Almost better than me.

Dang right. I think she's right on the money about those sleeper cells and I consider her assessment to be 100% correct. I'm very surprised she was not edited to extinction.

You know what's funny? I made a post on another thread about avoiding the Interstates today. I got questioned about it and further explained that those terrorists were being sentenced today in NY, that hazmat trucks have been reported stolen at various and yon, that in caution I thought if at all possible to avoid roads carrying large trucks.

I got really flamed for this and accused of accessoring with tin foil hats.

Hey, I'm taking a whole new tact on this thing and tin foil looks fetching on me anyways.

Because terrorism is how they're fighting this war with us and I know I'm a soldier without a lick of training. My way of fighting back is to keep track and make informed, cautious, but not ridiculous decisions.

No large hazmat trucks blew up on any highways today so I'm glad I was wrong. By my assessment, this is going to be the means of the next attack. I say that because as a newborn soldier, I'm developing my Intelligence skills. We've all read about those Arab guys getting hazmat transport licensing when they couldn't even speak English. Then there's the unusual stolen trucks.

I've listened to the prevaricating congress critters enough. I've seen them appear on my TV and tell me to go on as normal, that it's the American way, that it's my duty as a patriot. Then they all tuck in tails and run and hide at a whisper of danger. Boom, they're all off my list.

I'm going to drive the Interstates just like I still went into Baltimore the day they were announcing all over the radio about a planned attack so specific they named the time: 1:15pm. I was right smack dab in the middle of Baltimore at 1:30 pm only to come home and discover all the House of Reps. went home. I considered that crazy threat on Baltimore and know that I'm no fool that would ignore what I should wisely consider danger. But my newfound Intelligence skills advised me that a terrorist would likely go after DC as Baltimore, DC being right down the road and all. What the heck is in Baltimore?

I think this war is on us citizens every bit as much as it is on the government and I sure do wish Ridge or some other Homeland Security guru would be a bit more candid about what we're up against.

Which, as I've went on and on, is why this column is so good. I adore Peggy, of course. And you know what?

I now trust her more than I do my congress critters.
