The flag, Fourth of July and Apple pie…everything so wonderful.Of course, compared to beleagued nations and starving populations—oh, you overlooked them. The genocide in Africa, the babies dying by the thousnads, the women raped and tortured…ah, all is well with the world in the USA. 4,230 young Ametricans are dead, 23,000 have been wounded, blind and crippled…oh what a wondorous future for the in the Good Old USA. Lost your job, no money, lost your house, lost your pension and retrement—but come on man as Tommy says–
be grateful. Hey there you oler folks, you must be grateful becuasse you have a choice, food or rent, or rent or mediine. Where’s your gratitude. Oh your husband was killed, the kids will never know their Dad, so sorry but be grateful he fought for lthe libert of countries that hate us, yor was it for oil or for the missing WMBs.
Want to be grateful, then stand up and say (taking a line from the movies ) Hell no, no more! Tell them that they must fix it because it is broken. The clouds are dark, there are so many withou any sunshine in their lives. Sand up and look around. If you are grateful for what you’ve got, then damn it help out those who don’t have. Enough of the inner peace and self, did you share gthe turkey with the omeless? Did you put another dollar in te Salvation Army kewttle? Have you sent those old clothes to the Red Cross. If you are grateful, then prove it, don’t write about it,don’t talk to your friends about it….do something to move those clouds.
When was the last time you sent a package to our guys and girls overseas? There is so much you can do to prove you are grateful. You missed out on Thanksgving, don’t miss out on the holiday season–you’ll feel bettter. you’ll feel great by spending on strangers, on people so in need……you’re lucky to have so much….how aout sharing just a little. After all, a loyt of littles make a big one.
Isn’t that what we call be an American?

Bravo Tommy

I wept from reading your ‘Confession of Rejoicement’.
Not for me but for the countless inarticulate, the hopelessly unastute,
the unabashedly craven of thought, and all those lacking a Rogets
for just the ‘spin of phrase’. And lest we not forget SPELLCHECK.
You’re only wrong on the entertainment part. What you do in
Sedona stays in Sedona forever, that’s right FOREVER. What
movies, the last great movie to come through ‘these parts’ was
the Disney Classic Bedknobs and Broomsticks; restaurants
what restaurants Cafe Jose’s and 10000001 Omeletes really now,
bars, bars what bars the Martini Bar and one free pass to a DUI
and clubs what clubs are there clubs here please tell me what
clubs are you referring to urgently tell me Please Please Please.
The only entertainment here is THE RED ROCKS and
beating your dog (no spousal abuse allowed or it will show
up on the second page of the RED ROCK NEWS (I love that
paper as much as SVVT, almost. I am one of the lucky ones
alright I have two dogs to beat Dusty a vicious border collie
and Rinny (short for Rin Tin Tin) a german shepard who
actually loves being beaten (she’s a distant cousin of Hitler’s
German Shepard Blondie.
And to all, Have a Merry and Thankful Holiday.
