Pictures are powerful...

They say a picture is worth a 1000 words. Here's one for you...


Nothing to exciting there...just a football helmet from the 2006 Gator Bowl. I met lots of Virginia Tech students that day and they were all excited and happy to be cheering on their team who happened to win that day, 35-24 over Louisville. A much happier day than the one the Hokies had earlier this week. I have always believed that envy is at the root of all evil and we got to see that in action. We also got to see how low our media, specifically NBC, can go in the name of getting their story. We didn't need to see photos and videos of the madman who killed the innocent. We don't need to hear his rants or read his words. We don't need to understand....he was a nut case and a loser and the only shame is that he wasn't locked away in an asylum years before when warning signs were first raised. Cold and heartless?? Maybe...but tell that to the victims.
