i've been silent for a few days... did you miss me?  i've been silent because i've been speechless.

what the hell is going wrong on this planet?  we have something rotten deep within our souls.  i was still seething over Imus.  whether you buy into the pop culture myth that we're all too PC these days, be real.  the Rutgers squad is possibly the fiercest women's team to ever take the court. they deserved, hell they earned, so much better than they got.  and i can't figure out why people don't see it.  how can they defend the indefensible?  

but then this horror-fest happened at Virginia Tech.  i love being at university.  i love the books, the bicycles, the coffee and the classes.  it is a place of ideas and friendships.  not mass murder.

and i'm wondering what is with the rage?  the hatred?  and i am numb.
