I don't know if I'm numb or in denial. I just can not watch anymore TV. I don't even read the newspaper these days. I'm not sure if it helps or hurts.... these constant news briefings, high alert warnings, and continual anthrax calculations are driving me crazy.
I'd enjoy a remote desert island, at this point.

Paranoia is sweeping the nation.... as to if it was intended....who knows.

I know for one that I hate to turn on the news because I know that they are going to say that *enter number here* cases of anthrax has been diagnosed in *name area or post office sorting area here*

I feel horrible for all those who have received anthrax, and yet I am extremely pissed off at all of those wonderful people out there *mainly teenagers I am sure* that are using this time as a great laugh, or so they think, for doing pranks.

My local walmart has received countless bomb threats... WHY? who wants to bomb a Walmart? Sure there are people there...but not really anyone important enough to destroy it over.

And you have people now sending powdered sugar and other powders through the mail. What kind of people do these kinds of things? Sick ones I suppose.

I was told to vacate a shopping mall in wales this morning because of a suspect package.At the same time I saw on the news a group of Moslems 100 miles away outside another shopping mall recruiting people to fight for the Taleban.Weird.

I seem to be catagorizing people into two groups lately: those who are afraid and those who are on "ignore". I am so frustrated and sickened when I watch daytime news TV... not by the never-ending reports of new terrorist threats, but by the ravenous behavior exhibited by the media. I saw a pit bull kill a yorkshire terrier when I was a teen; the media's grip on fear-factor stories is no less intense.

Now we're on heightened alert again... when were we taken off of it? Of course I'm concerned about what is happening, but for Christ's sake, it is more likely that I'm going to win this week's Powerball than I'll contract anthrax through the letter I received today from the copyright office at the Capitol.

Actually the New jersey letters are more dangerous. Oh, I am winning Powerball this week, then getting anthrax!

Same here, no daytime tv... can't bear it anymore... I was addicted to CNN and quit cold turkey.
Of course, now, I am addicted to the computer...
I just can't seem to get a grip...

My husband and I moved from NJ last year and last night we were saying how glad we were away from all that. We visited family a few weeks ago and felt so strange knowing all the paranoia I felt did not compare to what my sister-in law was feeling. She with her new baby, and hubby live in Hamilton Lakes- 08619...where the letters and postal workers, and hysteria is rampant. She constantly reminds us that she wants us there, but, I don't want to be there. I'm tired.

/rant- sorry, I guess I needed that.
