Ruin a Vacation???
If you have time, click over to AOL. At 9:20 am (eastern) one of their headlines (it is a rotating group) was "Will This Storm Ruin Vacations?" The story refers to tropical storm Beryl currently in the Atlantic off the coast of the Carolinas.
Now, is it me, or are we a nation with our priorities all fucked up? I mean, let's think:
- There is currently a war going on between Israel and Lebanon
- A tsunami killed over 525 people and displaced 35,000 in Indonesia on Monday
- Over 39,000 civilians have been killed in Iraq since the US invaded in March of 2003
Why are we worried about ruined vacations? There are plenty of other things to worry about in today's world.

All this bad news is ruining my vacations...
Yes, mine too...which is coming up in August in some western state that is not usually threatened by hurricane, tsunami,or heat wave...
that may be why I'm whining.
