The news from the Gulf has been devastating and heart-breaking. I intend to go this morning to the Blood Bank and donate. Also I will give to the Red Cross for Hurricane Relief. Have to do something.

Last night I couldn't watch the news any longer. Needed a break. I put Shane into the DVD. An old 50's western but done very well. For a short time I was transported to another time and place. A place where right and wrong were clear-cut and good triumphed over evil.

A new day begins....
