Scottie, the motto is “my money is mine and so is yours.” Car and train bridges, water and sewage piping, rural internet service, electric grids to renewable sites, etc. are for sissies. Remember our slogan. Keith
Hello Keith. If you took the same amount of money that is in the infrastructure bill that buys stuff for the US people to use, and instead simply gave it away to the wealthy and big corporations that would not give anything to the average person, and the Republicans would favor it. In fact, they already have many times over. It is only that this time the money buys stuff for the benefit of the average person, the majority of the people in the country, that enrages them and causes them to fight against it. That really bothers me that more people do not see that. Hugs
Scottie – howzabout a nice, warm, gushy, feel-good story? I’ve recently been experiencing bursts of manic energy, that are probly related to my upcoming demise, but I’ve been channeling it into producing some creative works, and in attending to my final affairs.
Anyway, the muse struck, and inspired me to write my own funeral dirge, and when I was done, I found myself wishing I could still play my old guitar, and put the words to music, but Lacking that ability, I had to try to find someone who wouldn’t mind doing it for me.
Well, a coupla years ago, a man made a friendship request to me on my FB page, so I looked him up, and was quite pleased that I could almost instantly verify he was NOT a Troll, so I accepted him. As it turned out, he’s in the Music Dep’t. at ASU, (he might even know BDR from MPS, who works in the IT Dep’t. there,) and he would occasionally post some of his music, or excerpts from his books, as he is truly a New-Age Renaissance Man, and very talented, and he even has a music studio in his home, for composing & arranging.
So the little bell in my head went “DING!’, and I discreetly explained to him the favor I was asking, as I already informed him that I would be dying soon, and no help for it, except for the wonderful hospice care I’ve been receiving. He emailed me back, saying he’d had a song written, with a pleasant series of chord arrangements, and he loved the lyrics, and said it seemed like a perfect fit. A DAY-AND-A-HALF LATER…………this is what he had for me:
