It is ironic that on a day that we are supposed to remember and honor the sacrifice of our veterans, we face a tragedy such as what occurred this week at Fort Hood. It is one thing for our solders to face the enemy in open combat but to be gunned down by one of their own comrades on home soil just turns my stomach. A vietnam vet in my hometown actually tried to send the gunman yellow roses and a card calling him a hero. I urge everyone to find more meaningful ways of honoring the those who sacrificed so much in the name of freedom and to remember those who never did come home.

Best of Wishes Wil and Anne for the next ten. I am a newly-wed and step-father myself. It has had it's ups and downs but I don't regret a day. Sometime, if I ever get you cornered somewhere, I'd love to hear your insights on the process and tribulations of getting published. My grandfather tried unsuccessfully to get published before he passed. I also am in the planning stages for a sci fi series. So obviously, I have a lot of interest in this. Oh and by the way....I loved your appearance on the Guild. I am such a geek. LMAO
