I think there will be a time for the light hearted -- On ESPN.com they are reporting what has happened. On the side, is a story that all the games have been canceled for today. Then, there is a substory that the games will go on -- when as a country we are ready -- when the time is right. I kinda think that at this moment -- some 4 hours into this horrendous tragedy, that is where I am at. I am in shock, saddened, depressed, angered. And very serious. I just got off the phone with my mother. We both spoke of how this will test some of our beliefs -- for instance, using the CIA to hunt someone down and shoot them in the head in retaliation. Never thought I would even think that --so for now -- I am guessing many of us will need our seriousness. As with any death, there is a process.
