Like I said earlier, I received an email from someone that got me to thinking about what is right with the world and what to do to make it better. We really do live in an amazing country. If for no other reason than the diversity of its people. In which other country is the the diversity of people as in this?
Now, this is not a "Kum-ba-ya" moment. I do believe there are minimums to live here. You should not be here it inflict pain on our people or our way of life. You should not be here trying to make this country like someplace else, there are clubs and organizations for just that purpose. You should have a working knowledge of American English. I don't care what language you use at home, in church or with your friends but a working knowledge is not too much to ask.
Any way, to get back on topic. This email contained a link to a video that has the same effect on me as the old "We Are the World" song created during the famine in Ethiopia. This one, however, hits a lot closer to home. While each of us are unique, we all strive for something. The values we hold near and dear to our hearts.
Watch the video then tell me you don't agree.

Hi John,
I think I got this blogging thing down now. I wanted to get on last year but couldn't figure it out. So, hopefully, here's to happy blogging.
Your friend always
Mary
Thanks, John. This country has been sold down the river by the corporate state. The revolution is coming and it won't be pretty. And things will not get better.
I have said, tongue in cheek, for years now this country is being slowly strangled by lawyers, bankers and voice mail. (Actually I now believe voice mail is the least of our concerns,) With bankers and lawyers in bed together the average "Joe" only has a snowball's chance.
