THE WEEKENDER :) A REFLECTION & SOMETHING CHEERY

A GRIEF NOTED
     The tragedy in Colorado is heart breaking.  It calls to mind Columbine, which also occurred in that beautiful state.  That incident, and other school yard shootings were
a focus of VIRUS OF VIOLENCE, a documentary I produced and directed featuring Martin Sheen, and Col. David Grossman, one of the world's foremost experts on killing and mass homicides. 
       A group which has spent years researching violence and causal factors is The Center For Successful Parenting-link here. They have funded and published results on brain chemistry and violence, and in the wake of this most recent outrage, it is worth a visit.
       As a reporter I was on the scene of wanton violence and I could never escape a sense of guilt.  My life proceeded as I surveyed  and covered acts that would forever change and scar many others. This weekend most of us will share that disconnect as we proceed with our lives, while in Colorado the pain and suffering is unimaginable. 


NOW FOR SOMETHING JOYFUL
HERE IS YOUR WEEKENDER :) VIDEO
See you down the trail.
