I just thought I'd let you guys know that my brother, Alan, was killed in Iraq yesterday. Apparently his unit was checking a building for weapons and when he kicked in a door it set off a bomb - he was the only one killed. I'm not sure about funeral arrangements or anything yet - but I'll let folks know as I do. I know that most of you didn't know him, actually many of you only know ME via the internet, and those of you who do know either of us probably don't really know what to say to me. That's cool - I'm not good at being on either end of these situations. But please keep your thoughts/prayers/meditations/whatever it is you do with my family and his wife.
