I am Fortunate

Instead of divisions like gay-american, or polish-american, or this-or-that-american, I propose a new name for all of us: Fart-Americans!  ... OK...  so maybe that doesn't sound so good....    

Thanks for sharing from your heart.   After spending many years in the Marine Corps and the Air Force I have seen alot that is screwed up in this country and other countries.   Hopefully more people are beginning to recognize what we have in this country and what we have lost....

Hope to see you next week at the Houston mens meeting.

Hi Russ,

Thanks again for that post. I thought this was a good article:

Here's the main point:

"...in America we have reached a funny pass. People are doing and saying odd things as if they don't know the meaning of the thing they say they stand for. In particular I mean we used to be proud of whom we allowed to speak, and now are leaning toward defining ourselves by whom we don't speak to and will not allow to speak. This is not progress."

This is one of my "deeper" days this year"
