You are right; I just find the news from the last few days particularly 
agitating, and look for anything about which to smile.  By the way, you need 
to change the clock on your email.  You sent a message asking if people were

worry about it.  But, since you asked the other question, I thought I should 
mention....bobford

story, with phrases like "took sanctuary in a church" makes the guy sound

Oh well.
It's funny (not) what the news reporters will choose to write when there are 
about a gazillion Ike stories that could be written and SHOULD be written as 
cautionary tales.

Riding out Ike on an island, with a lion 
By ALLEN G. BREED, AP National Writer Tue Sep 16, 11:52 PM ET 
BOLIVAR PENINSULA, Texas - Many years from now, a small group of Hurricane Ike
