Day 15


Happy Friday! Today is billing day. Printing, stuffing and mailing.
It will be so nice to have 2 days off to do as much or as little as I want to do. Our plan is still to organize and set up the bedroom upstairs.
Like everyone I've been watching and reading about the tragedy in Haiti. I remember DK telling me how when in the Navy and spending time in Haiti doing what the Navy does he had loved it there and how the people were wonderful. So sad. But one thing has really bugged me. Why do our news anchor people have to be down there? I couldn't believe when I was watching the news there is Katie Couric there in Haiti reporting. All I could think, if she is there, they (the media) are all there. Where are they staying? What water are they drinking? Are they sleeping on the streets with the people? Because we know there is no Haiti Hilton. Did they bring a plane full of water or medical supplies with them? It is so sad how they feel the need to "be" there. I think they are getting in the way of what really needs to be happening down there. Like generating and distributing clean water and recovering and destroying all those bodies before real disease sets in. Of course as always this is my own opinion. And Pat Robertson and Rush Limbaugh are ego inflated lunatics that can just go "F" themselves.

I agree that placing one's self in the middle of the chaos seems counter-productive sometimes. I certainly back you up on that last statement. Both of those guys have their heads so far up their back-sides that they can see their own molars!
