There's just nothing like a phone call at 8:00 at night...

...from your daughter saying "there's been a shooting at our mall (where she works), we're in lock down". Another WTF moment. http://seattlepi.nwsource...354862_southcenter13.html4 1/2 hours later she came home, I was never so relieved. |

It is good news, and I don't know what the *fudge* is wrong. You always see this veil of insanity around you and you think that it can't reach you. And then something like this happens and you realize that your world is not in a nice vacuum safe from the sociopaths. You made your children what they are these children that come at you with knives. They are your children. You taught them. I didn't teach them.We've taken away their ball fields and put up mini storage units. We've taken away the wide open spaces where kids can play and we've covered it with mini malls, we've paved paradise and put up a parking lot. It's just as easy now to get a 9mm hand gun as it is to get a basketball. this whole civilization thing is only a 4000 year old experiment or so Man is a silly beast, the only animal to kill for sport or pleasure, the experiment is flawed, too many random variables. Now say if it was Ok. to put a bullet in the head of the mangy animal...I digress...my apologies. |

Thanks Fuzz, she just left for school and work, I told her to try and not get into a lock down today. You have to laugh, if you don't you'll go mad. |

Truely am glad everything is ok. I would have been worse if she was calling in shear panic.
Glad you can laugh and let her go.
