I love keeping in touch!!!

Well, I know I have not posted in awhile, but have been pretty busy. Last night I arrived home from my 8000 mile journey in two days from the West Coast to Tejas and now back in good old DC. A few minutes after I arrived, I called my aunt and she asked if I read my e-mail. I told her no. I just got off the plane and I'm heading to the gym. What she told me next was unbelievable.

I know that some of my family lives in Wyoming, but were intending to go to the Cape (Cod) the day after Friday the 13th. As some of you know on Friday the 13th a military sharp shooter killed his wife while she was on stage. When I heard he was evading the authorities I called my cousin just to see if they knew him and that he was not seen in their area. I never did get an in contact until next Friday. My cousin did not mention the shooting to me.

I knew my uncle was in a country band. He has always been in a band even when he served over seas. My aunt told me that the singer that was killed was my uncle's singer and that my uncle was just a foot away when she was assassinated. Nobody in my family bothered to tell me and I really did not notice him on the news channels. I just get sick of hearing how screwed up our society is and focus on financial channels, sports and cartoons. The herd of the evening news is just to depressing

Thanks to technology I have been able to see my uncle's interviews and the comments posted. One woman wrote that my uncle had a glimmer in his eye of glee. Obviously, through a two dimensional device with just a minute or two this woman was qualified to judge my uncle and what he felt when he leaned over to see half the head of his band member removed from the shot. I don't know, but glee is not one of those emotions. He might look that way, but trust me he cared tremendously for her and her orphaned children. So, to the lady who posted that comment I would suggest hold your comments until you know a person. An for that beautiful singer God rest her soul and look over her children.

Until I saw a recent comment on another blogsite, I thought you were dead.
