One thing that I think about is all those horrible deaths in WW2, and that includes those that

Never mind, this belongs in news and views...

Someone I work with watched the video on the internet and from what she said they told him right before it happened what they were going to do. But, she did say that it happened quickly.

Not to get too graphic, but having watched it, I have serious issues with the validity of it.

I do believe Berg was already dead based on my knowledge of Court TV forensics.

And no, that does not excuse the exercise....just observing.

right now, my dd called me at work to tell me a friend of my son's had come by to see me. she said he would come back at 8:00. he went into the army last fall and has been in virginia. i knew he had no time off til next december (i guess they give you some anyway between assignments). i also wondered if something was up...
and at 8:00 p.m. on the dot, he drove up and came in and just visited me for an hour. his cell phone rang and he told whoever it was, "i'm at a friend's house. can i call you later?" i felt so special that he came to visit for no reason at all except just to talk.
he doesn't know where he will go next. they gave him a 16-day leave and if he doesn't get orders while at home, he'll go back to virginia to await his next orders. we talked about iraq. he is not worried about going if that's where they decide to send him.
i was amazed at how grown up he is. less than a year ago, he and my ds graduated high school together. i remembered them getting into trouble for each throwing one egg at a house on halloween (my son missed, but admitted he had tried to egg the house); the car accident they were in on the way back to school from lunch (the friend driving my son), the spiked hair, the bleached hair, the purple and pink hair...and now hair 1/4 in long all over his head! he went through all his experimentation and different looks during high school and now he is such a grown up young man!
alas, my son who was shy in high school is now going through his 'teen years' and experimentation in college :-)...the goatee, the long hair all combed forward, the total vegetarian within the first few months of school LOL
anyway, it was wonderful to have a young man come over to visit just because he liked me all the years he was growing up. and he still calls me mrs. C------, even though i have told him he can call me michaela ever since he was about 8!
hmmm....he mentioned he hasn't seen a movie in years (not only the expense of the movie, but a $35 taxi ride into whatever town in virginia that's near the base) so i told him he could take dd.....hint, hint!

right now, it's BED TIME!! yippee! i am wiped today.
oh, we got our first 'almost famous' group at the golf course today. i got a call from a guy out on highway 5 asking about our course. i told him it was 9 holes (you play the other set of tees for the 'back 9'), pretty challenging, had 2 par 3's, 2 par 5's, etc. well, he really wanted an 18-hole course. i told him he could take highway 140 toward yosemite and play stevinson...
anyway, about 20 minutes later i hear the tractor trailer rig from hell coming into the parking lot...only it's a 45-foot prevost bus/motorhome, with 5, count 'em, 5!!!, air conditioning units on top...
anyway, 4 of the 6 guys want to play golf. they head out for 9 holes (and yes, they loved it and paid the difference and played the back 9, too when they had gone around once)...but anyway, one of the 2 guys left on the bus comes out to visit. the bus has NY plates. i tell the guy i know they aren't 'professional golfers' and we both look out at the first hole where 2 have hit into a gully and the other two are way off in the trees of the fairway next to them...he laughs and tells me they are on their way from reno to los angeles.
finally, i ask who owns the bus and he tells me WWE, their company, owns it. turns out, they are the 'set-up and road crew' for the world wrestling entertainment group. they are at the staples center on sunday for 'judgment day'. now, i am not a WWE fan, but it was cool to have them at my little course!
when they were packing up to leave, i was cleaning out their golf cart and one of them had left his phone in the cup holder. i ran out and said, "trade you this phone for a tour of your bus!"
it was so cool. all granite counters and black leather couches. totally luxurious and amazingly 'non fraternity party or WWE looking'. actually, pretty clean for 6 guys traveling together! it was even nicer than the bus i see ty on for 'extreme home makeover'. it cost over 600,000 dollars!

it was cute to have the guy yell into the bus, 'lady coming aboard. everybody make sure you have your pants on!' since some of them were changing out of their sweaty golf clothes.
