Hopes for ’04…

Posted in Opinion at 2:21 pm

Hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday season!!

Now we’re looking forward to 2004…the start of a new year!

What do you want to see happen in 2004? On a personal or global scale.

I’d like to keep in better touch with my friends and family. Sending out Christmas cards I realized there are some very dear friends that I basically only “talk” to once a year.

New Poll – comments

Posted in Opinion at 6:12 pm

So I changed the poll and added this entry as a place to discuss the poll.

I, personally, am undecided. I feel there are too many things here to warrant a clear cut answer.

I don’t think the situation was handled well from the get-go, but once we were there, the operation was a huge success. Oh, except for not finding the weapons of mass destruction we were told were there. Then, Saddam was out of power, but what do we do now? A lot of US lives were lost after Saddam was removed.

Now, Saddam is captured…where do we go from here? Iraq is going to have to stand on their own two feet sometime so should we bring our men and women home now? I say yes.

Osama must be found for me to consider this thing a “success”.

Holiday travel

Posted in Opinion at 1:41 am

This time of year is also a time for travel…lots of travel. Thankfully, we aren’t traveling much this holiday season. It just worked out that everyone has come or is coming to see us for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.

So what I want to know…how’s the traveling going? Any good stories or horror stories to share?

Early Christmas present…Saddam

Posted in News at 1:24 pm

Obviously, the big news story is the capture of Saddam Hussein. Now the tricky part begins since he is still alive. Where to have the trial? What should we do with him now that we have him?

Personally, I feel Osama bin Laden is a bigger threat to the US.

I guess I can change my poll now too! Yeah!

This is the time of year when everyone looks back on the year that was…2003.

Mary’s place in Christianity…

Here is an interesting link.

I recently read The DaVinci Code and have moved on to Dan Brown’s previous book, Angels and Demons.

Some of these theories are hard to swallow but do raise some interesting thoughts.

BCS…what the hell?

Posted in Sports at 3:44 pm

Good point Ed…

LSU is in a bad spot this week because if they lose there is no way they can make into the #2 spot and play for a National Championship. However, if they win, they also hurt their chances of moving up because because they’ll beat Georgia, a team they already beat this year and in doing so, weaken their own strength of schedule.

What the hell is wrong with this picture!?!?

Daddy Dave…

Posted in Opinion at 7:28 pm

So you know from the site name I’m a Letterman fan…

What about the “new” Dave? The kinder, gentler Dave now that he’s a father.

Anyone notice he is still wearing the hospital bracelet from the birth? It’s coming up on 1 month now…cut it off and put it in the scrapbook.
