Bizarre.

Well, it has started. I honestly don´t know what to say at this point. Simply
staying tuned to the news...

A sobering
experience
The previous blog from the back of the bus was en-route to the Dallas Holocaust Memorial Center. While the timing of this trip is certainly interesting given world events, it had actually been planned months ago. The visit was planned to coincide with the reading of "The Diary of Anne Frank" as part of the 8th grade curriculum.
By the end of the tour, they had lapsed into stunned silence.

No surprises tonight, kiddies, but watch the UN tomorrow...

Oh, Never mind
Now the Jerusalem Post
has backed off, saying only that the US and other agencies are closing in on bin
Laden.

D´ya think...?
According to Jerusalem
Post story linked by
Matt Drudge
today, Osma bin Laden has been captured, and President Bush will make the
announcement tonight at his press conference. The White House, of course, has
denied the story. Honestly, could a story this hot be kept under wraps? Stranger
things have happened, I suppose.

Under the new Homeland Security Act, model rocket fuel is classified as an
explosive.
This means that people who handle it will have to undergo background checks.
This could kill the hobby of model rocketry.

Sad day in the
neighborhood
Sad news on the passing of Fred Rogers, better known as "Mister Rogers" of
PBS kid show fame. The neighborhood won´t be the same, will it?

Sorry about
the downtime
Our ISP moved us to another server, which messed up some of the coding on
this page. It is fixed now. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Not a very
good blogger, am I?
Well, I never promised a constantly updated page, did I?
Life at the Manor has been...interesting lately. The big news here, of course, is the breakup of the shuttle Challenger over Texas. We first heard sirens, then the boom, then more sirens. An apartment complex down the street from us had caught fire. We now know that the fire began before the shuttle passed overhead, and the cause seems to have been electrical. There have been reports of debris sitings in our city, but at this point the authorities are still investigating.

In the CD
player
I bought Paul McCartney´s Back in the USA CD set a few weeks back, and am
finally able to listen to it. I´m loving it! Some of the new arrangements leave
a little to be desired, but overall, it is very enjoyable.

Not updating
much, am I?
Sorry about this. Life is getting in the way. We had snow over the weekend. Just a dusting, which goes to show why Dallas is not the ski capital of North America.
Here´s one of the best articles I´ve seen in a long time on the topic of
school bullying. The article is geared mostly to school administartors, but
it has some good strategies for parents as well.
