Some stuff I should have posted on Thursday

"It was sort of early in the morning, and there were not a lot of people there. I went around the corner to get a cup of coffee to come back around to this pen area where all the people were coming over to tell their stories to the media, and I was on my way back with this cup of coffee, and my phone rang. It was my 3-year-old daughter, and my wife said "I want to tell you something", and she hands the phone to my daughter, and she says "Daddy, I just want to tell you that I love you" and I guess that really got to me, because I realized there are lots of people out there who are not going to hear their 3 -year-olds say " Daddy, I love you." anymore.
