A Little News Of My Day

Good evening world here I am !!! Well let me make it official today I went to vote by absentee ballot. Before the questions arise yes, yes and yes I voted for JOHN KERRY. I think that its time for a change and John is the change we all need. I'm 28 and I am a young voter and yes young adults like myself care about the political process. Tomorrow is November 2nd so I hope that everyone goes out to vote regardless of who they vote for as long as they get out and vote. Now I have said all that I'm going to say about politics because it's time to get back to the subject at hand.......me of course.

As you can tell I am doing extremely well. Work has been keeping me quite busy which never changes not that I'm complaining. If I stopped working I'd be at home letting my brain rot which wouldn't be anything good. It's good to get out and go to work and talk to people instead of me sitting at home in front of the television which would eventually turn me into a vegetable or worse a couch potato. Work keeps me busy and that's the way it should be. I'm doing pretty great and that's just fine by me.

News For Sunday

Happy Halloween !

Happy Halloween !!   Well it's the night for black cats, pumpkins, witches, ghosts and goblins. It's also a night for scary movies and ghost stories. I wonder if there will be a full moon on this All Hallows Eve. On this night I kind of wonder if there's any ghosts roaming through Salem or if "The Headless Horsemen"still rides in search of a head. Sleep well if you can tonight because you never know if a restless spirit may pop in for a visit.

It's My Saturday News

Happy Halloween !

For starters I'm a day early so forgive me. Second thing it's daylight savings time. I don't have much to say but I wanted to check in with you about my day. I am doing fine. I guess tomorrow will be the day for ghosts and goblins to roam and witches to cast their haunting spells. I'll have to be on the look out for any black cats. Sleep well on this All Hallows Eve good night.

Recent News

I haven't voted yet so I keep being reminded by people that there's only a few more days before election day. On a different note on the ABC NEWS a videotape was aired Thursday night in which a shrouded man who identified himself as "Azzam the American" claimed he was an American member of Al-Qaida. He made threats of future terrorist attacks in the U.S. He reported that "September 11th was but the opening salvo of the global war on America.

In my opinion we can't keep going the way we have been. A tape broadcast Thursday by ABC news also appeared to confirm suspicions reported earlier this month to the IAEA by Iraqi officials , who said that hundreds of tons of high-grade explosives, poweful enough to bring down buildings or detonate nuclear weapons, had vanished from the Al-Qaqaa site after the U.S. led invasion of Iraq. A U.S. intelligence official said the 377 tons of missing Iraqi high explosives are only a fraction of the weapons related material that has disappeared since the invasion. U.N. officials said they also are concerned about the disappearance of sensitive equipment and controlled materials that could be used to develop nuclear, biological or chemical weapons.

I'm worried about the state of our nation. I'm really not sure if we can overcome another terrorist attack. More than likely another terrorist attack would end up being an extreme act of violence. 

I can't say for sure what the outcome of all this will be. I just have to say that news such as this is far more morbid than anything Edgar Allen Poe could have ever written.

THOUGHTS OF AN UNDECIDED VOTER

I wonder what radio stations and television news stations will talk about after this Presidential election is done. This one Presidential election has gone on forever. Everywhere you turn you are bombarded with news of the candidates or the election itself. I am becoming numb to the news of this election. I really wish that this election was over and done with. I am ready to get back to life without any thoughts of this election. I wish that people would talk about something else instead. It would be nice to hear about something that didn't involve voting.

Maybe we could talk about something a little exciting for example the fast approaching holidays now there is something that I would like to hear about. I would really like to talk about the joy of the holidays. Thanksgiving is almost here and so is Christmas. I would like to hear something that doesn't make me want to turn off the television. It would just be nice to get back to a life where we didn't talk about politics 24 / 7. I am ready to get back to my life without having to hear the words George Bush / John Kerry is that normal ?

I JUST HAVE TO ASK WOULD IT BE SO BAD IF I DECIDED NOT TO VOTE ???

MY DAY

Well today was one of those days. I had an evening of too much perfection. I went to this place that I had never been before. I found a place called "THE BOOK NOOK" which to me says it all. This place had it all-books, movies and CD's. Being the book lover that I am this place had a room full. I could have spent all day there. I can't wait to go back. I was like a kid in a candy store I didn't want to leave the book nook I really didn't. It had every book you can imagine and some of them were quite old.

Then the next perfect thing was the weather. It's been nice here in the peach state. The sky has been blue and the wind has been warm in a very pleasant way. Days like this are for picnics and going for walks in the park and eating ice-cream.

Once in a while it's nice to veer from one's normal routine which is a must from time to time. Sometimes you have to veer from the day to day routine of life and find something fun. Sometimes it's going someplace different that can change one's whole outlook on life. Today my day started out a routine and then later on I veered. Change can be a good thing you just have to enjoy it.

Thoughts for Sunday

To begin I would like to start my notes off to you as if we are already in the middle of a conversation. Well recently I finished reading "Zlata's Diary".

The book was a diary of a young girl's life in Sarajevo. Zlata is a young girl who experienced the horror of war in Sarajevo. Zlata didn't suffer the same fate as Anne Frank did but they did experience the same extreme horrors of war.

My world is no different. At the moment the world in which I live is at war against terrorism in Iraq. We are also in the middle of a Presidential election. It's possible that this election won't change anything and its a shame that I'm not hopeful. In my opinion Anne, Zlata and Mattie are examples of great people.

On a different note the holidays are right around the corner. I really can't wait until the holidays. I just wonder what the holidays are like in other parts of the world. Good-night dear world.
