I love reading History. I find it more fascinating than most fiction. Although a registered Independent voter, my political and social views lean to a conservative outlook. Both major political parties are, in my opinion, totally bankrupt in ideals and intent. Both pull too far in their respective direction, and all have sold themselves to the highest bidders. A New England Yankee, I have great admiration for the founders of our nation. The early ones, Washington, Adams Jefferson and others put their lives on the line. Add Madison, Franklin and more. We are most fortunate that our Revolution/Rebellion was organized and led by educated, enlightened men (not to forget Abigail and some other uncelebrated women) who thought far into the future, and it took other men like Jackson, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and FDR to maintain the hopes & dreams of millions. France's Revolution started well, but was taken over by lesser men, and fell into the Reign of Terror, and the Guillotine. Russia suffered Lenin & Trotsky. We were luckier! I cannot get through the day without reading the Comics. Regular comics first, then the Political 'toons. Unemployed for 35 months, I finally landed a good position with a good company! However, now I have less time to comment, (a relief to some) and less time to read other comments. Just typing out my gripes & diatribes gives me a feeling of being a little less helpless, and I feel better having said it. Sometimes I goof. I do like reading other comments: occasionally I learn something.

    “Free GAZA!” Also, how about FREE TIBET, FREE WOMEN OF ISLAM, FREE NICARAGUA, FREE CUBA, FREE VENEZUELA, FREE NORTH KOREA, FREE THE WORKING CLASS FROM THE BILLIONAIRE-INVESTOR CLASS, and lots more to choose from! (Oh, but they’re not as fashionable as Gaza is.)

    Long ago, MAD magazine and the usual gang of Idiots often parodied the comic strips, EG: depicting the “Peanuts” gang, all living life as wealthy adults from Charles Schulz’s royalties!

    Among dogs, size doesn’t matter. Many a time I’ve seen a small dog go right after a much larger one, and the latter always backs off! Another time, I saw a tiny chiuaua type go after a horse & rider that appeared in the backyard. The horse half-reared, and the dog kept coming!

    During our twenties, camping with friends, one snored so loud we made him sleep in his own tent, at the edge of the campground lot. Up early one morning, I heard the campers in the neighboring lot talking over coffee: "Did you hear that guy next door? He kept me up all night! " “Me too”, said another.
