Fury In Ferguson
The death of Michael Brown is a true Tragedy. An 18 year old cut down before he could experience life. What else is tragic is the looting and rioting. Please let the investigations be carried out, and if it is determined that Officer Wilson did use improper deadly force, then he should be prosecuted. Violence won’t bring Mike back, but reporters and peaceful protesters practicing their 1st Amendment rights should not be hassled by the police either!

A Humanitarian Tragedy
Usually, I think that military action should only be used as a method of last resort, but in the case of the Religious minorities being slaughtered by ISIS, all countries need to band together to defeat these murderers!

An Interesting Link
Here Is a site that argues that parents are going way overboard when it comes to protecting kids. Just because you let your kids play outside, walk to school on their own, or spend the night at a friend’s DOES NOT automatically mean that they will be kidnapped, molested, or murdered. It’s OK to be wary, but let kids be kids and have a normal life!

Senseless Collateral Damage
Our thought and prayers go out to the families and friends of those killed on the Malaysian Airlines flight shot down over Ukraine. War does not discriminate between those fighting and the innocent. Hopefully, whoever was responsible will be brought to justice.

Can’t We All Get Along?
It is truly sad watching the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on TV. This fighting has been going on since the beginning of time and will probably go on till the end. Do they even remember what started all the fighting?

The Beginning------
This is a bit of Vampire Diaries fan fiction I’m writing and hoping to get published on Amazon. In this, Damon and Stefan meet the Originals in 1864, and later, a twist to what you know about the show!
Chapter 1-Mystic Falls-1864
“Boys, We’ve got new boarders, come help them with their baggage, please”, Father called to Stefan and I. It was a lazy late summer day, and Stefan and I were enjoying the beautiful weather, and generally loving life. I had decided that soldiering wasn’t my cup of tea, so when I took leave from my unit, I decided not to go back. The war was about over, in my opinion, and I know a loser when I see one. Like I was really going to get into trouble, as the Confederacy was in total shambles by the summer of 1864.
As Stefan and I made our way to the carriage to help our new boarders out, I looked over at the window of the house and saw the beautiful Katherine Pierce, our other boarder, smiling and waving at us. She had been staying with us for a few weeks, and her company was most sincerely welcome. Her beauty attracted both Stefan and I, and I prayed that our close brotherhood would not be ruined because of any possible competition to win her affections we may have.
Stefan and I walked over to the carriage and our new guests made their way down and one, who looked to be the man in charged, introduced them. “I’m Niklaus Mikaelson, and these are my brothers Elijah and Kol, and my sister Rebekah. We’re here from England, looking for a location to start a shipping business, and your boarding house was recommended as a place to stay as we make our way to the Virginia coast.”
After Stefan and I carried their luggage to the guest house, Father came over and invited the Mikaelsons to lunch. As we walked down the pathway to the main house, I looked and saw Katherine and her companion Emily climbing aboard their carriage. I went over and asked where they were going. “We’re going into town to do some shopping we’ll be back in a few hours” Katherine said as she placed a kiss on my forehead. She looked a bit concerned as she rode off, but It didn’t register in my mind at the time.
Sitting down with our guests at the table, Rebekah sat across from me. She had such a beautiful smile, and both her golden hair and blue eyes sparkled in the afternoon sun coming through the window.

A Pleasant Surprise
It’s nice reconnecting with old friends! I just finished talking to Melissia, an old friend of mine from Yahoo chat days! I hadn’t talked to her or seen her online for maybe 4 years, I had thought maybe she had quit the online life, but she had been using Myspace, which I hadn’t been on in a while. Time to catch up!
