A sad reminder

I will never understand the evil that resides in the hearts of terrorists who strike out at innocent people as they are going about their daily lives. How cruel to attack London after they had just received great news of hosting the 2012 Olympics. It seems unfair that the world must live in fear of maniacs that lack a conscience.

I am sure seeing images of today's attack brings great pain to all terrorism survivors and the families of victims. I know the U.S. has become so polarized over issues like war and it seems like in all our bickering, it is easy to forget that verbal and written argument is how decent, rational people react to what they disagree with. Terrorists react by killing innocents to send a message to political forces they disagree with. Commenting on the war on terrorism and England's involvement as motive behind the attacks is pointless and disrespectful to the people and families that have suffered today. I hope as divided as we seem as Americans at the present, we can all say a prayer for England tonight as we go to bed.

And now we have to pray also for the Navy Seal that allegedly been captured and is being threatened to be killed....

Happy Birthday Audrey Rose!

Audrey Rose Georges turned one year old today. Her mom, Angela, made this wonderful invitation for the occasion and has done an excellent job of documenting Audrey from a positive pregnancy test to her most recent milestone, taking her first steps, through her blog, My Daily Struggle . This is one well-documented and adored kid and I hope Angela and Papa Tim congratulate themselves on 12 months of excellent hard work. Audrey is a little superstar.

"It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand"

Does anyone remember the video for this song. It was so stupid. The Banarama girls were being followed by a trucker and they threw some banana peels on his windshield -- like that would stop him. Any other '80s fans out there remember any more details? I still loved the group and still love the song. I actually have this single on vinyl -- just like the picture. Tomorrow will be a beast. Today the air conditioning was like the Little Engine that Could except this little engine never made it over the hill. The dog pants all the time like she can never quite catch her breath and outside it is just nasty. Even at midnight tonight it was still 85 degrees and a super sauna outside. I have an elaborate system of fans set up in the bedroom and it helps. Andi even has her own fan and she sleeps jacked up right next to it. To add insult to injury, K called me at work frantic last night, "THERE IS A POSSUM IN THE BASEMENT!" If that exclamation doesn't typify the deep south I d...
