Uninspired Inspiration

(Note to ThisHereBlog readers: I have been so uninspired to write lately that this requires an entry.)

Nothing has been happening that hasn't been extensively written about...all the anthrax scares, the hot war in Afghanistan by the Army, Air Force and the greatest Navy in the world...the protests in Pakistan against the U.S. and her actions...the ancillary death and damage the air strikes could be causing...the cost of warfare on both sides in human life and money.

It's all we hear about...all we read about. To the charge of wishing to hear all information possible, I plead guilty. To the charge of wishing it all away, I plead guilty. And to the charge of hoping that this supposed war on terrorism is going to require a level of ruthless violence against global terrorists worldwide that makes their own acts seem like the fundamentalist boy scout, I plead guilty.
