GREAT story!!!! If only more of us had this young man's compassion and bravery. If you don't think one person can make a difference - Watch This! With all the talk of partisan politics and pointing the finger about who is to blame for our current problems, it's only fitting that a child reminds us all what is truly important in the world. Thank you Brendan for reminding us all of what life is really about. Godspeed, young man.

This is interesting: Russian Scholar Predicts Economic Crisis Will Rip America Apart

Igor Panarin, a professor at the diplomatic academy of Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told the newspaper Izvestia on Monday that America will break apart into six regions following the crisis. "Dissatisfaction is growing, and it is only being held back at the moment by the elections, and the hope that [President-elect] Obama can work miracles," according to a translation by Bloomberg. "But when spring comes, it will be clear that there are no miracles." Panarin predicts the U.S. will split into: the Pacific, the South, Texas, the Atlantic coast, the central states and the northern states, and hinted that Alaska could be Russia's for the taking.

Hmmmm.....bold prediction or Russian propaganda?!?! Especially the part about Russia taking back Alaska. Curious.

And we wonder why there are so many problems in the auto industry: Automakers' Jobs Bank Program Pays Laid-Off Workers to Do Nothing

If Congress goes ahead with an auto industry bailout, American taxpayers may have to pay for thousands of laid off auto workers to literally do nothing all year.

To quote the great Credence Clearwater Revival, "I see a bad moon rising."

My head is usually shaved. Had you mentioned this before my last shaving, I would have found a way to travel cross country. I probably could have gotten some sort of federal aid for the trip..

Awwwww Thanks Babe. I am so on my way, see you in about 18 hours, maybe 24. You would love to cut all my curly locks. My present stylist loves to run her hands thru my hair. Maybe you should start advertising at the local military recruiter’s office? Those guys love to have their hair cut by a beautiful young lady. And talk about an easy hair cut. – Lorica

I could use a trim Babe. Maybe you should apply for Federal Aid. Knowing these bb brains, they will give you a billion or 2. – Lorica
