New Year, New Year

For those of you insulated from the cold, the recession, the job losses, the war thing(s), Tiger Woods, the benching of Payton Manning, girl's basketball at St. Vincent's, our dumped governor, Stephen King's 1,100 page book, kooks taking up their own plan to kill and terrorize in the name of al qaeda, probably unknown to them, Mayweather's ploy to sabotage a fight he's scared to make, Downey Jr.'s brilliance, Tasmanian Devil's fight with cancer (yes).........yada, yada, yada..................... consider this your year to find the time in your busy lives to collect diverse information from around the world. Make what's happening out there part of your collected intelligence. Then you can consider yourselves a part of it. Awareness can prohibit the rise of ignorance. Don't turn from events that you believe have nothing to do with you. The only way to really survive in this world is to know it. Otherwise, like voting, if you don't, you affect nothing, and as a result you're simply a supplicant. Either be aware, be involved or be nothing.

Thank goodness I have you to do my researching for me! Wait...what about Payton being benched? Ya mean to save him from possibly getting hurt so they lost the game instead of playing him? You don't mean he did a bad thing and was sent to Time Out do ya?
