Grasshopper No.4 has a birthday today. Consistent with past practice I will not disclose his age as he turns 40 (Whoops!). Happy Birthday No.4. The best is yet to come. May all your dreams come true.
Grandson Nevin coincidently has his birthday today also. It is easy to remember when two great people were born on the same day. Happy Birthday Nevin.
I try not to get into political rhetoric because everybody is entitled to their own belief’s. I have noticed a trend lately. In January, there were some big changes in Wisconsin legislation. The State Senators of the minority party refused to participate in any debate and fled the State and hid out in Illinois. I pay taxes for representation and Senators sitting in Chicago isn’t the answer. They ran from the problem.
Yesterday it happened again only in Washington D.C. The House of Representatives has a Committee investigating Attorney General, Eric Holder concerning the illegal importing of 4000 guns across the Mexico/US border. Some of the guns ended up killing our own people and many guns are unaccounted for. Eric Holder got Obama to invoke “executive privledge” meaning Holder didn’t have to disclose important info. The House of Rep. decided to vote to hold Holder in “contempt”. All the Representatives of the house that didn’t agree with the House vote, left the House chambers and refused to participate in the voting process. There is that “running from the problem” again.
Your Mom and I saw a local Community Players version of “Joseph” last night. It was certainly an amateur performance but the music was still magic. Hey, we need a Joseph to lead our government. Someone who can interpret dreams and lead us to prosperity. Joseph didn’t run.
Enjoy Summer’s offerings.
Love,
Dad
