Today

Today, rain pours down on the baked earth but to no avail. We'd need a week of rain to erase the cracks in the earth and this storm is more noise then downpour.

Today, I give thanks to the people that made my bamboo back scratcher. It has been fiercely used on my now peeling back.

Today, is the birthday of Ambrose Beirce, writer of the snarkiest book on the planet, the Devil's Dictionary.

Today, an Italian judge has ordered the arrest of members of the CIA in response to the alleged kidnapping of Hassan Mustafa Osama Nasr who was grabbed off a Milan street on Feb. 17, 2003.

Today, Neal Boortz posted an in depth and articulate rant about the recent changes the American government has made concerning eminent domain.

And today, three missing children were found dead in the trunk of a car in New Jersey, discovered by the father of one of the boys.

Everything and everyone we have can disappear in the wink of an eye. Let things go and cherish the people still with you.
