But you have to admit, the bombs were a nice touch. *grimaces* All I'm
hoping for now is that we don't wind up in war. I'm not a big believer in
Nostradamus, but I just know that we get very angry as a country and when we
get angry, things tend to go boom a lot....and then there is more red upon
the ground.

Yes, but one I can understand. This whole thing is a big shock, so a thought
like that is perfectly normal. It's called "self preservation". (Or in my
case, an excuse not to face my fear of flying)
