I received an email today from Senator Saxby Chambliss, and I’m posting both his communication and my own. Dear Ms. N: Thank you for contacting me regarding the National Security Agency’s (NSA) monitoring of conversations connected to terrorist activity and the treatment of military detainees. It is good to hear from you. I certainly understand your concerns regarding personal freedoms. We are blessed to live in a free and effective democracy, and, just like you, I hold dear the personal…
I receive notices every couple of days from the neighborhood watch. There has been a bit of a crime wave in the area, and everyone is on edge. I’m getting very uneasy about some of these communications. Call me whatever you want, but I would never want to have to rely on some of these neighbors. I’m even thinking of getting a little more serious about defense in case of darker times. Yesterday, I got this email: Subject: stranger walking…

Well, Bush let ’em down – “Tough luck, Georgia.” Water is not a partisan issue. You have water or you don’t. They’ve known about the potential problems of a rapidly-expanding state (and city) population for some time. Instead of planning and accountability, we get prayers. They’ve made noises about it being interdenominational, but here that probably means…
Ok, I’ve been on pins and needles all night (and freaking out a bit), but my hubby finally has been released from detention at the Atlanta airport. It turns out that the only thing he shared with the person they were looking for is his very common name. The guy didn’t have the same birthday. He wasn’t even an American. Sigh. So now, I’ve talked him into taking the expensive cab ride home. No way is he riding the MARTA…
