I just got mine back as well.<br />But let me start my little parade of thoughts about this post!<br />Osama: I wouldn't exactly throw a party over his death, but I am glad to an extent---more relieved than happy, actually. I am glad the one of the world's worst materminds is gone, but I know this isn't the end. However, as the sister of an American soldier, this is a a really big event for me.<br />Royal Wedding: personally, I thought it was good to hear some good news for once and they seem like such a classy, down-to-earth couple. They're not celebrities, they're people! And they certainly act like it.<br />Twitter: Ive thought seriously about it, but I don't think it's my cup of tea. Maybe I'll try it someday, but I'll stay with Facebook for now!<br />-RebekahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702219714438420151.post-37274630085862176862011-05-12T11:24:56.872-04:002011-05-12T11:24:56.872-04:00Hi, Hil--for some reason, this Royal Wedding seeme...Hi, Hil--for some reason, this Royal Wedding seemed more fairytale to me... maybe b/c I'm older.

I love the historical links back through time - our history, your history ..<br /><br />They can't be celebrities and won't be I hope .. in that ghastly sense! She was shopping in the local supermarket the next week .. as was Prince Harry on the other side of the country.<br /><br />Osama - it appears to be true and thank goodness they're not publishing photos etc .. ghastly - it can be enacted into a film in 50 years time .. but not now.<br /><br />Interesting post - cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702219714438420151.post-81982262971551547242011-05-09T22:36:35.966-04:002011-05-09T22:36:35.966-04:00You are so brave for jumping into Twitter...I'...You are so brave for jumping into Twitter...I'm not quite there yet. Eventually. Maybe. Probably.<br /><br />As for Osama, I'm not into conspiracy theories. People can't keep their mouths shut. Somewhere down the line someone who isn't paid enough is going to talk. I don't believe in conspiracies for that reason. I think we have a bit more class and are more reserved under this administration. We don't have to go showing off pictures or videos to intimidate others. We can sneak into a country during the middle of the night and take you out. Even Al Qaeda has admitted that he was killed. Why would they lie about it? There's no reason to. The guy is dead and good riddance. We should have had him in Tora Bora, but I'm glad that we didn't. I think this was far more effective - it sent the message that you aren't safe anywhere no matter how many years later. We will find you. <br /><br />I love bright, shiny new ideas!

NO PANTIES. but I liked the ...Okay, you know me... NO PANTIES. but I liked the restraint of the royal wedding for this reason: it's nobody's bloody business, so do the proper thing that gives to real sign of yourself, and then be yourself if your OWN space. I'm not a celebrity wedding fan ANYWAY (you know me, always the cynic), but I get that this particular couple could not have gotten away with a little private affair... so this was fine with me as the public face, and I will feel free to imagine they had a great party with some friends that was less controlled and THEIRS.<br /><br />Osama bin Laden... I am the world's BIGGEST conspiracy theorist, but the details I've heard on proof he's dead, I am buying. I think the burial WAS videotaped, and that videotape went to Arab leaders to prove he was treated respectfully and that respect is why it is not being released. We get too giddy with this thing, and we risk alienating the most dangerous part of the world. YES, killing bin Laden pisses off the extremists, but they were already pissed. The moderate Arab world, however, has to KNOW this moved toward peace, but ONLY if we don't add to it by enraging the population by being disrespectful in our HOW. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.<br /><br />As for social media... I haven't mastered Twitter. I'm not convinced it is my kind of thing, though I use it a little... I like blogging and Facebook... I don't have time to master something else just yet..Hart Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17599570189253229318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702219714438420151.post-21961486842134050312011-05-06T09:43:01.546-04:002011-05-06T09:43:01.546-04:00You bring up some really good things.

I believe he's dead. I don't know how much difference his death will make on the terrorism front, though. Not celebrating, here. Too much horror involved to celebrate. But also wondering why they killed instead of captured. <br /><br />Anyway, best of luck with all your writing!
