Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Done! Sleeping now. They should be here in about an hour, assuming they didn't run into any more bad weather. Although I have to say that I am amused at my volunteers from Indiana flying in to snow in Albuquerque.

I just stole a friend's fb status - "I've never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure." (Mark Twain)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I find myself very conflicted about the death and its manner, and the Twain quote is so very apt in this circumstance.

Oh, that's a good one and really does describe my feeling on the subject.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm kinda' meh on the whole Bin Laden death thing. I'm just tired....
But I'm not surprised he wasn't taken alive. For years it's been assumed if US forces ever cornered him, he'd kill himself or have one of his men kill him to avoid being taken alive. Plus he was firing his weapon, so if you're a Navy Seal and Bin Laden is firing a gun at you, you fire back.

DavidS, or anyone else who knows: In the TV movie "Burn Notice: The Fall of Sam Axe", Bruce Campbell played a Navy SEAL, and he is repeatedly called "soldier", even by his fellow officers. Is that accurate?

(I fully expect someone to point out that Mark Twain never actually said that, as seems to be the case with almost *all* Mark Twain quotes. But it's still apt.)

Did a lot of skippage, but am I the only one who is a little suspicious of the whole "buried at sea" bit?
