ONE OF OUR OWN

OUT OF RESPECT FOR THE FLOYD COUNTY POLICE DEPARTMENT AND OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS IN GENERAL, I AM SHUTTERING THIS BLOG UNTIL SOMETIME NEXT WEEK.

WHEN IT RAINED TODAY, I FELT LIKE THE COUNTY OF FLOYD WAS CRYING IN UNISON FOR THE TRAGEDY WHICH BEFELL OUR COMMUNITY LAST EVENING.

AS KEITH HENDERSON URGED, I TOO URGE ALL PARENTS TO RUN A SEARCH AT MYSPACE.COM. AS AN AUNT, I FOUND ONE OF MY NEPHEWS OUT THERE, BUT HE WAS 22 AND IS GETTING READY FOR AFGHANISTAN, SO HE IS BEYOND HIS PARENT'S PARENTAL SUPERVISION.

MYSPACE.COM WAS ORIGINALLY CREATED AS AN ARTIST OUTLET; TO HAVE FRIENDS IN COMMUNITIES TO POST AND LET OTHER PEOPLE KNOW IN THE COMMUNITY ABOUT MAYBE A COMEDIAN COMING TO THE LOUISVILLE COMEDY CLUB. THIS IS NOT WHAT THE KIDS ARE USING THIS SIGHT FOR. THERE IS ANOTHER SIGHT, ALSO; I SIMPLY CAN NOT REMEMBER THE NAME OF SAME.

AGAIN, WORDS CAN NOT EVEN BEGIN TO SUMMARIZE THE TRAGEDY WHICH UNFOLDED IN FRONT OF ALL OF OUR EYES LAST NIGHT, FROM THE VICTIMS TO THE JUVENILE. LET'S JUST HOPE THERE'S A LESSON IN IT SOMEWHERE; THERE SIMPLY HAS TO BE.

KEEP THE FAITH.
