The world ushers in New Year. Revelers rang in the new year around the globe with fireworks, cheers and kisses, except here in Thailand. Violence canceled celebrations here, when a series of nine bombs exploded in Bangkok, killing three people, and wounding around 30 more. It was just a matter of time that this was going to happen. But I'm not happy with it.
Police Hunt Killer of Broncos Cornerback Darrent Williams. Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams was killed early Monday when his white stretch Hummer was sprayed by bullets after a nightclub dispute following a New Year's Eve party. Police have no motive and no indication the 24-year-old player was targeted in the drive-by shooting of the limousine. The burst of violence occurred hours after the Broncos were eliminated from playoff contention.
And finally: three children who were missing, after their mother was found slain in their home, have been found unharmed, Montgomery County Police said Monday night.
Those were the headlines for today. I hope you had a good New Years party, I certainly did. Only heard this afternoon that we had serious problems in Bangkok on the 31st. Placing bombs is the lowest thing one can do. You will always hurt innocent people, and I realy don't care why those terrorist did it. It doesn't matter if they are Muslims from the South, or political friends from ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra. This not acceptable.
The police is hunting for the killer(s) of Darent Williams, who was the cornerback of the Broncos. According to the article they don't have a clue as to why he got killed, although Williams was involved in a fight at a Night club only hours before, and the Broncos were eliminated from play-off contention. That should be enough motive, right. The Dutch used to have a soccer trainer, Rinus Michels, who used to say: "Soccer is war". Well in this case: football is war, and the first casualty of the year is: Darent Williams. (Football is a violent sport to start with, and my guess is that being shot doesn't hurt half as much as playing a full game). Hope that they will find those responsible as soon as possible though, as they will need a replacement player.
But as usual, I don't care whatever you do, and for whatever reason, as long as you don't forget to love a soldier. Love, Jenifer. bloomjenifer@yahoo.co.uk
