I told the other kids that they had to keep singing happy birthday while all of them were cleaning.


Don't worry, I let him goof off earlier than the rest.

Those that fail to learn from (or choose to ignore) the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them.

I predict another all-out civil war before this is over with.
Remember, friends, you heard it here first.

Sadly, depending upon what happens in the fall and how much money outside influences decide to throw and in what direction, it could very well happen.
I had a unique front row seat to the beginnings of the Detroit riots that ultimately nearly set the entire country on fire and all these years later it still influences how I see the "big picture" of some events. I told my husband back in April that the same logs for the bonfire had already been placed and all it would take was a single match to set the whole country afire again, then I prayed I was wrong. I knew I could not be the only one to see the potential of it being a thousand times worse. Still praying for someone, somehow, be able to put out the fire otherwise my prayer will change to "God help us all".
