The photo of a home and make-do flag pole in Joplin, Missouri brought me to tears. Very symbolic of the American spirit.

Last Night I Found Out...

Al Gore was only 10 minutes away from me, speaking at Hamilton College's commencement.

Hmmm... I wonder if he walked or pedaled here by bicycle? He could have canoed.
Oooh, I know! I'll bet he got propelled through the air by a giant GE wind turbine blade.

C'mon now... You have to admit I've been very good lately. Haven't been "ornery" in quite some time. I was due. ((giggle))
