Beltway Sniper Shootings-FR Commentary-Wed., Oct. 23,2002
Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences | October 23, 2002 | Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences

Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.

All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

No questions to Moose? With luck, the press will be struck dumb as they were a couple days ago.

Depends on the ball player, if it's the shortstop for the Cleveland Indians, Omar Vizquel, then it matters, otherwise no. :)

I've been flamed more than enough times in my 4 years here, myself. That's why it's been a LONG time since I've been an active poster. I'm just getting back into the swing of things again.

I can be a little too "thin-skinned" at times. I'm learning - and as I am getting older - my skin is getting a little "tougher". LOL

Well, some people say if you're catching a ration, you're doing something right!

But I do notice that it's mainly the same ones over and over, the ones that complain about EVERY SINGLE THING on the face of the earth. Unhappy people.

You've got to be thick-skinned around here. Oh, yeah. But as my Mom used to tell me when I was a kid, "you've got to toughen up." Little does she know :-))

I know,I'm glad I was not the only one that saw that and I"ve got to run out and pick my daughter up from school. Please keep me informed.

LOL - Oh - I know - My mom used to tell me the same thing - she said that when I got older - I wouldn't let things get to me and that I would toughen up. She was right. (Although - I STILL have a LONG way to go).

Oh, some people out there don't like the Daily Dose thread and openly mock it. That think "picture licker" is a smear to all of us.
