If nothing else catches your attention during the London Olympic Games besides the opening ceremonies, allow the Bob Costas memorial minute of silence on Fox News prior to this endear your heart to what could have been for 11 Israeli athletes murdered by the PLO's Black September in the 1972 Munich games.

All of the world will be watching, including the realtor community, as the games somehow bring us all together for a brief, shining moment. I could get very political here as to why the International Olympic Committee is not going to honor these men, but this is not the place for it. Instead, I just want to bring your attention to something that is dear to my heart simply because it is the right thing to do. And although the IOC will not hold a minute of silence for these athletes prior to the games, at least Bob Costas is. So watch his show and try to remember why the olympics are held every four years and how we can never allow terrorism, whether international or domestic, to dictate how we live our lives or who we honor or memorialize.
