I just could not bring myself to write it this year. I did write one, however, and you can read it on my blog.<br /><br />Such heartbreak! Such anguish!

I can't think about it for more then twenty seconds without feeling the pulse quicken and the anger return. This is one of those incidents that makes me wonder what kind of country this is, and I don't like that feeling. Maybe someday, when some time and distance have interceded -- but not now.<br /><br />I did offer two brief thoughts on Tumblr, <a href="http://jaquandor.tumblr.com/post/37929022694/tools" rel="nofollow">here</a> and <a href="http://jaquandor.tumblr.com/post/37944097878/a-musing" rel="nofollow">here</a>.

Seems to me this is a way more fitting place to share your thoughts than the others. The bog is where you have so eloquently spoken about many things - both joyous and tragic. The other social media sites don't seem to me to be a setting that allows the expression you are so gifted at. Not pushing for more...just sayin'.
