Margo - Take care of yourself! Let's hope this is all resolved very soon so everyone over there can get back to their lives.

Good luck Margo. Very scary going on right now. Between what's going on there and the little scary dude in N. Korea (and the big scary dude in Washington DC), these are tough times.

and...what maillotpois sed

Margo, even though I have family in Israel it's funny (well not funny haha) that when I saw the headlines first thing I think is "there's a TE gal there, hope she's ok"

Let's hope somehow there's peace soon.

Don't make me come down there and say "I don't care who hit who first, all of you, all sides just sit down, take a time out, kiss and make up. Have some chocolate, we all like chocolate, right?*"

Margo,

Thinking of you with every news report. My heart aches that this level of hostilities has started up again. Stay safe and sane if you can, and know that we're all thinking of you here on TE.

Yeah - just where the Jordan River is flowing out . I am waving a big towel
and wearing my kick-a#*- lipstick coloured sport-y nylon dri-fit "apres ride" shorts and you can see my wonderful tan-lines .
