On some of the threads it is very "tiring" to see the continual attacks on GWB and now Laura.

Same people, same songs(crap), same silliness.

Introducing logic & facts do not seem to matter.

THe reporter's comments sound wonderful.. Will we ever really hear about it other than here????

doubtful.

my second bike class is tonight. So much to do first. taking a "rest the sore back" break" but need to get busy.

Have to leave soon, but I have found a poem which fits lysie...

The title is : To Be of Use...by Marge Piercy..

The beginning:

"The people I love the best
jump into work head first
without dallying in the shallows
and swim off with sure strokes almost out of sight."

Isn't that fitting?? For lysie , who snowblows her driveway...climbs onto roofs...fixes the plumbing AND her computer...

Only it goes on to compare such people, and lysie, IMO, to water buffalo "who strain in the mud"...oxen tied " to a heavy cart.."

You see my problem? Sigh...it's just not quite the thing, altho the idea is great....

AND it ends well, too:

"The pitcher cries for water to carry
and a person for work that is real."

lysie, this poem made made me think of you, but I'm not wild about the water buffalo part...:-))
