Marrk,

Wow! The Morgan Freeman shot! Great shot and he is one of my favorite 
actors.

I still haven't gotten my mind around it. Don't know that I really 
can. A great old Scot I knew on the day his wife of 50 years died, 
sat in silence for a very long time with his son, then suddenly 
said, "Life is good if you're strong."

After thinking about that and today's events, I believe that if we 
let ourselves be distracted from our lives and activities, we let the 
terriorists win just that little bit more. So hang in there and don't 
give the bastards the satisfaction!
