Bombing @ MindSay 
london
After the bombing of the Murrell Building and damage to the outlying areas, and the murder of 168 innocent people, I, a deputy Sheriff then was assigned to guard the United States Marshal’s Office Control Center. During that time I was approached by a man of mid-eastern decent carrying a small package. He requested to enter the secured area and that he had something very important to give the marshals.

Terry Lynn Nichols (born April 1, 1955) was a U.S. Army veteran who was convicted of being an accomplice to Timothy McVeigh, the man convicted of murder in the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building (Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, U.S, April 19, 1995), which claimed 168 lives. Nichols was convicted of eight counts of manslaughter in a United States District Court and was sentenced to life imprisonment in ADX Florence, a super max prison in Florence, Colorado. The state of Oklahoma then charged him with capital murder. The McAlester, Oklahoma trial started March 1, 2004. The jury selection and the testimony phase began on March 22 and he was convicted on August 9, of 161 counts of first-degree murder. As in the Federal trial, the jury spared him the death penalty and he was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
Nichols since then has alleged that a high-ranking FBI official was directing Timothy McVeigh in the plot to blow up a government building and that plans may have changed the original target of the attack, according to a new affidavit filed in U.S. District Court in Utah on February 9, 2007.
Somewhere around 27 October 2000, while working as a Lieutenant Jail Commander for the Oklahoma County Jail facility, I was temporarily re-assigned to guard Terry Nichols. My duties were to insure that he did not escape, would eat three meals a day, receive his one-hour exercise period three times a week, did not communicate with any unauthorized person, that he received his proper cleaning supplies daily to clean his cell, to monitor anything or anyone having access to his living quarters area.

A Blessed and Happy Samhain to All of you! Happy Halloween to those who aren't of the Celtic or even a different "Pagan" Path!
We had a grand time yesterday even though Tab and I were the only parental units that took the kids. The men stayed home this year. I ended up driving the truck and Tab was by herself in the back keeping the kids away from the edge when we traveled different areas of hte town to get to the good neighborhoods! We only stayed out till 8 pm and only hit a 1/3 of the town but the kids made out like bandits! To the point their bags were literally busting open! (Pictures to come later-like normal)
The house was completely bombed today and now I am in the middle of a smoke break. We are starting upstairs with the cleaning and vaccuming! Tons of dead Japaness beatles (some folks call them asian beatles), boxelder bugs (I called them Harries growing up!), and spiders to be vaccumed up. This should also completely clean out what ever lil Head Lice decieded that the bug spray wasn't going to kill them.
The plan of action for this long weekend of the kids being home is to clean up from bombing the house, take DeLaney to her orthodonist appotment tomorrow, rent a carpet cleaner, steam clean the rugs, and then FINALLY get to the family Samhain ritual! Thank Anu that the Gods are very understanding about how busy and stressed out I have been!
I also need to give our Taekowndo Insturctor a call. He finally got worried about us! I have to explain that I just got overwhelemed being the only parent home and October being such a busy month for us! He is wanting the kids to still test and just give us some private lessons (free of charge) to get them ready for Nov. 10th. I am giong to ask him if we can NOT do that and just work on the form we need and skip this testing. The start of next week is when we will ALL go back to taekowndo and I will start hitting the gym at full capacity!
When I am done basically fall cleaning the house this weekend, we will be ready for Thanksgiving and I can purchase the rest of the items I need to do my cooking for Thanksgiving. Randy won't be home till the day before Thanksgiving and Tab and Joe, stepped up to the plate and talked to Randy about how I feel guilty leaving the kids home for a weekend while I go down to the job site to see him. The CEO of the Aussie Company told the Main Project Manager to take Randy and I out to the one and only 4 star restaruant when I come done as a Thank You to both of us. Randy for not bailing on the project and helping in areas and reengeneering things when he didn't have to and for me to say Thanks for having Randy gone for so long! I can't take the kids down with me no babysitter! So Randy talked me into going down in the next two weekends before Thanksgiving and into buying myself a classy outfit. I didn't realize that this restaurant was the only 4 or 5 Starred place in NE! I figured Lincoln or Omaha had classier ones but I was wrong! My dad even got after me and said that it isn't going to hurt the kids to stay home while I go down for a weekend! Joe and Tab will keep the kids and I will leave them my Cell Phone so we can call them. I just need to deciede what weekend I will be going down!
Okay I am off. I have to finish cleaning out my closet and then vaccum DeLaney's room, go in and finish helping Coltin and then we have to all hit the kids' tv room and computer room! Then go down stairs start laundry, scub the bathroom, vaccum the living room and dinning room, and then once laundry is all done I can scrub the kitchen. We will be going out for dinner tonight since the kitchen won't be gotten to till tomorrow!
On the first day of my class, Fundamentals of College Writing, as I took roll I asked a variety of questions of students, as is my custom in order to get to know them and to stimulate their thinking. In response to a question of mine about the war in Iraq, one young woman said:
"I think we should bring all the Americans home and then nuke the whole country of Iraq and kill them all."
"Thirty million people?" I inquired. "What about innocent children?"
"They'll just grow up to be terrorists, too," the student replied. "Kill them."
In discussion that followed, six more students concurred in this opinion.
"On the land we can build an amusement park," one grinning young man suggested.
At my direction we explored the proposal for ten or fifteen minutes, and in the course of our discussion I tried to provide opportunities for my seven students to acknowledge that their opinion was unrealistic and—I hoped—that they had been joking.
But no—
The next morning I was on my way out the door to work when my wife came downstairs, yawning, still rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
I told her the story.
"I don't believe it," she said.
"You don't believe what?" I asked.
"That they really meant what they said," she explained.
"Well…."
I thought for a moment.
"They did."
If our government commands you to kill the people it labels enemies, you will kill them or go to prison.
If our government commands you to fire your machine gun at an assembly of people it labels enemies, you will machine gun them or go to prison.
If our government commands you to bomb a building it labels the enemy, you will bomb it or go to prison.
