Due to recent events and the situation that is currently unfolding in MA, and West, TX, possibly home to some of our readers and fellow bloggers. Rich and I feel that it is not the time to host a Blogathon with this subject matter and title. Also, when I chose the dates for this event I was not taking into consideration a date so close to the Murrah Building tragedy which occurred here where I live, 18 years ago today.
We do hope that you'll understand our decision and join us when we hold the event at a later date, to be announced. Rich and I will get together on that and create new banners in a few weeks.
Thank you to those who had signed on and were prepared to go forward. I do apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you.
Our thoughts are with those who are suffering.

ReplyDeleteI totally understand, and I'm also thinking and praying for the people in these areas, living such a tense period. My contribution has already been posted, so I hope it can be used later.
ReplyDeleteKisses! It was very thoughtful of you both :)
I understand, and respect your decision. I think both recent tragedies struck a chord with many of us, even if we didn't know the victims personally or lived near MA or West,TX (I'm about 150 miles from West). Since my contribution is already in the works, I plan on posting it as scheduled, but I would be happy to participate with another possible title, when a new date is announced.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Anything you guys decide is aces with me.
ReplyDeleteI understand.. I will be thinking of the MA and West, TX victims and their families.
ReplyDeletePage, you know we were worried about you when we heard of the tragedy in West Texas, and we hope you and your family will be OK. Thanks, too, for your concern during the terrorist bombings in Boston (luckily, our friends and loved ones weren't there). We can totally understand why you and Rich would want to postpone THE TERRORTHON for now, under the circumstances. I hope that all will be well for you and yours for now, and we're keeping you and yours in our thoughts and prayers, my friend.
ReplyDeleteI think that is a wise decision, Page. And here's hoping those in Boston and West, Texas have the support they need to make it through the aftermath of these tragedies, and to find the answers they seek.
ReplyDeleteGood call Page. I share your sympathies and render my condolences to West and Boston.
