Hello, thank you for joining me for yet another of my commentaries.

It has been nearly 2 weeks since the cowardly attacks on the great United States of America and things have not turned back to even close to normal. My trip to Venezuela has been postponed a few weeks and I can't say I am really disappointed after all that has happened. Unfortunately another trip to Pennsylvania has been arranged for next week. I don't know how I am going to feel getting on a plane for the first time since all of the horrible occurences. I am not sure how my family and friends are going to feel about it either.

I keep trying to think of what I can do if something like that occurs on my plane. I can think of many things I would want to do but how many could I actually do? I will not sit there and let it happen without a fight but who knows if I would be effective enough to change anything. I just hope that I will never have the chance to put any of my ideas on handle the situation to work.

It is going to be hard to step on that plane.

I have always went to the airport very early so that part of the new airport policies will not bother me in the least. Actually as far as I am concerned they could take 5 hours to check me in, checking every bag and I wouldn't care as long as I knew they were preventing all weapons from entering the plane. When I got back from Australia I told everyone that the lax security was very scary and then this tragedy occurred. I am very anxious to see how much tighter security will be this time in the airport. I am hoping they go through every one of my carry-ons just so I will feel a little more secure.

I just want everyone to know that no matter what happens I will always be there with you. Mom, I will always be smiling at how much of a smart-ass you are. Dad, I will always be your Son-shine. Grandma and Grandpa Summers, I will be with you whenever you are on your scooters, back behind you flipping off the cars that get to close. Grandma and Grandpa Cooper, I will always be there to drop in unexpected and talk. John-boy, I will always be there to let you know you need a hair cut. Crystal, I will always be there to help you cheer up and pull your frowns away and slap on a smile. Ozzy, Justin, James, Pat, Nicole, Toni, Dominic, Dalton, and all of my friends I will always be with you in your good times and bad.

I am sorry about the depressing nature of this commentary but I want to have all of my bases covered and be prepared for anything. I love you all and thanks for joining me for another rant.

Later,
Coopedaddy
