Wishing all of you a very good morning, I do hope that it is a good day for you. Watch your local news and papers this morning, still do not know the details pertaining to the shooting that occurred at the airport in the "Little Hamlet By The Sea", but it did involved the U.S. Marshall Service attempting to arrest a federal fugitive. It just happened to occur at the same time that a large group of people, including my daughter in law and granddaughter were at the airport on their way to Italy. Although, this has not been confirmed by my oldest son, they may have driven to Anchorage to fly out. Makes one wonder, how safe is the little hamlet, since the first of the year there has been a volcano wanting to erupt, one real good earthquake and a multitude of smaller ones, one oil tanker going a ground, shooting at the airport and a dragon roaming the hillsides. All of this taking place and it is only March, appears to be a great year shaping up. I think we can blame the majority of these news items on the volcano. Since the volcano is isolated on an barren island at the mouth of Cook Inlet and void of any human influence since the beginning of time, it would be safe to assume that is was the lair of the dragon. When the volcano erupted, it also created the landslides deep inside the earth (earthquakes). The dragon was awakened. This was predicted many years ago in an old rock and roll song, do not remember the name but one of the lines was "the dragon sleeps tonight", well the dragon is no longer asleep. It is not known how many dragons are involved, however, I have seen proof on my front lawn that at least one dragon has slip the bonds of the volcano and fled to the mainland. It was most likely during his flight to locate another sanctuary that the pilot and captain onboard the tanker saw this dragon soaring on the wind currents across the inlet. They were so intent on watching the dragon, they forgot to watch where they were going and ended up on the beach. Even in my own mind, I cannot connect the dragon to the shooting, unless the fugitive from justice happened to see the dragon and mistook it for an airplane and headed to the airport to catch a quick flight out of town. The federal officials just happened to intercept him, they may have been in town to investigate the sighting of the dragon. Surely, that would be of interest to our national interest and security, after all, we cannot have a dragon roaming freely about the country side, especially around the area of the "little hamlet by the sea", a loose dragon could be detrimental to their environmental concerns. If we have major flooding this spring, the dragon is going to get the blame!
When you look at the daily news through my eyes, it is not nearly as bad as it appears.
