Also, I don't understand the rules of war. It's so strange - we warn people of what's going to happen, give deadlines, play all these games in the media, etc. Then we go around dropping pamphlets to the people of Iraq telling them why they should surrender to the US and abandon Saddam, etc. Also, how is it that during all this, and now, while we're attacking Baghdad, we have reporters there? Staying in hotels? What's that like?

- Knock - knock - "Here is your breakfast you filthy American pig!" ?? I just don't get it. I mean, I'm glad the reporters aren't being rounded up and shot but I don't really understand why they're not.

Also, now people are just silly. They were talking about cancelling the NCAA baskteball tournament, which is stupid. Aren't we supposed to "carry on with our lives" so that "the terrorists don't win"? And the stupid movie stars are so conceited that they don't want to walk down the red carpet at the Oscars because they are afraid they'll get shot or something? Dude, you are not the targets of terrorist attacks. Get over yourselves. Also, people from my office were scheduled to fly to Syracuse from Boston tomorrow and they cancelled their flight and are driving instead because they're worried about flying. Come on. I don't think Syracuse is a big target.

Anyway, I just don't even know what to think about anything. It all seems insane. Oh, and of course, local news sucks. They just cut into the national news special report as if they had something important to tell us, and guess what they're telling us? Everything the other news report just told us, word for word. It's so hard to take.

And, lastly, Heather is dumb for not knowing Baghdad was the capital of Iraq. Ha ha, Heather. And our president went to bed like five minutes after his speech. It just seems funny. The cameras turn off and he brushes his teeth, puts on his footie pajamas, and goes to bed.
