The deadline for war<\/span> has almost arrived. Who knows what the next few days [weeks?] will bring us.<\/p>\n The nation<\/span> has gone to a higher state of alert<\/span>. Cities are tightening their security. Turn on the tv and all you can find on news channels are reports from the front and speculation about what will happen next.<\/p>\n The NCAA<\/b> basketball tourney<\/span> will continue as planned<\/span>. And that’s a good thing. I have three of the four number one teams<\/span> in our annual family contest.<\/p>\n The Academy Awards<\/b> are scheduled to be held on Sunday <\/span>as planned [although there will be less red carpet and after party coverage]. I’m glad that both of these major events will go on as scheduled. We’re going to need something to divert our attention from the media overkill covering the war. I also think that we can’t let the possibility of terrorist attacks on the homefront cause us to change our lifestyle.<\/p>\n Well… it’s 8:00 straight-up. May God bless our troops and may this war end quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n The deadline for war has almost arrived. Who knows what the next few days [weeks?] will bring us.
