Hoghoney Here,
I am just sitting here and watching the news about the shooting victims from VA Tech. It is so sad that things like this goes on in our world or that something like this has to happen to bring people together. As I have had a very busy weekend dealing with taxes and have not been on much this weekend I just want to send my prayers and my thoughts to any of my friends and their family that are from VA or that know anyone from VA Tech and send out much love and thoughts to all the familys involed. My heart and prayers go out to Virginia. I will reply to all this eveing when I get back home. HUGS to all.

Thank you for your thoughts, I live about 30 minutes away from Virginia Tech and was working about five miles down the road when it was happening. I didn't know much, and as a co~worker and customers told us what was going on we learned the tragic news. The store has been empty for days, and the whole community is shocked. It is so strandge to see the media where I used to take my kids to see the ducks at the pond on campus. My daughters uncle and older brother used to work the gunshows at that gunshop in Roanoke! (We don't have contact with them anymore, haven't for years) I even grew up about 3 miles from that place. The world has really gotten messed up. It was so different when I was young~alot more innocent. Sure miss that. Thanks again. Have a good day

I send a big hug out to you and your family. I know how it is missing that innocent, I grew up in Gary Indiana and there was so much killings everyday there even in my schools and now I live in a little kind of country town and it is so quite here and we only have on town cop and people are so relaxed here. and we have on old man that sells watermelons in the summer and he just leaves them sitting in his yard and has a jar for people to put the money in it to buy them and he leaves it sitting out in plain sight and noone even thinks about stilling it but where I grew up at if someone would see that there sure enough the man would lose his money. yea times change and it makes you think about different stuff. thanks for the reply and my prayers to your town.
