Happy: At least your ramblings aren't getting into the pseudo-intellectual realm, lately.
------------

Hehe, I was tempted when I saw you say don't worry, be happy. Do you know where that comes from. It's in calipso, I think, and from the deaf dumb blind kid inspiration of the rock opera, Tommy, by The Who, the Avitar, Meher Baba. I have a collectable, a card from the sixties on it. You may have even seen it new. It has his picture, Meher Baba and says:

I am the divinely beloved, who loves you more than you can possibly love yourself. And when you turn it over it says:

Relax and be happy.

So now you know.

Very true. This man has knowledge.

Your poll is laid out wrong- "Not really worried (Attack not likely)"

I think an attack is likely, but I'm not worried about it.

I can email you the song "Don't Worry, Be Happy" if you like.

Thanks, unfortunately I have no sound on this machine. My main system is down with a won't configure my monitor correctly problem and my alternate's got no speakers and maybe even no sound, but it might be there built in.

I'm not worried about those stupid terrorists. I'm going to live my life. If I get blown up, hey, sh!t happens. I'm not going to waste my time and lock myself in the house, I'm going to go out and live my life. Best way to give them the finger ;)

BTW, I live in Israel, I know what I'm talking about.

I'm not afraid of another attack. Whatever they try to do, we will overcome it. Nothing can stop the U.S.

We will always soldier on through any kind of adversity.
