I think this kind of thing is sort of hard for kids to understand. My boys were not somber at all. They knew the meaning of the day and the exercise, but they were very light-hearted and thought the activity was fun. I think it was good for them, but I don't know how deeply it sunk in.

So to all the loved ones of those who fell...my heartfelt thanks for what you have given... Yes, thanks. And especially my thanks at this time to the Loved Ones of one so close to home that died in some place with the god forsaken name of Hamiyah, Iraq just over a week ago.

I will continue to enjoy my pipe on occasion. I could NEVER do that. I am as hard a core nicotine addict there is. When I quit smoking I also "every now and then" dipped snuff and chewed tobacco too so I knew I had to get my use to zero or, sooner or later, I'd be right back. Heh, to me if I did that it would be like an alcoholic quitting vodka and bourbon and "just drinking beer." Now I'm not saying it won't work for you, but for me? Heh, there's NO WA
