This is serious stuff!!!

Today there is an issue that I can't stop thinking about. Something so important that it leaves all other subject in it's shadow. One item in today's world that stands out so bold that nothing can make me forget it! What could this be? There are so many issues and topics to discuss in today's world that it may be hard to find.

What about the threat of terrorism on U.S. soil? This topic is huge and real. This is something that we need to keep in our minds. After 9/11, the threat is very real. But, that's not it.

What about Christmas and all that comes with it this time of year? Well, this may be close in some respects, but not directly. All the holiday 'cheer' that we are subjected to this time of year makes me want to puke! I mean, who the hell is truly that freaking happy, anyway?

Is it maybe Iraq and our so called "War On Terror"? This item is huge and seem to be the topic of discussion on many blogs. You can't even turn on the TV today without seeing images and stories of our troops. This is big for me because my friend Dorman has been over there for a year and will be coming home very soon. This leads into yet another huge item on my plate, the fact that Dean is soon to be here, with his kids, parents, dogs and friends. I can't wait until I see him and to know that he is once again united with his family. Plus, actually having those winds and beers that we talk about will be nice too. But, for at least a few hours, this very important item must take a step to the side.

So what could possibly be so big that it makes it's way on my shelf, in front of all the other items of the day? Are you ready?..................................







Today, we woke up to an inch of snow on the ground and my son wants to go play in it!
