Hi...

Did you write that list of things you like...? It is a nice list. If you didn't write it, I would be interested in those things that "YOU" like. It would tell us what your about... cause I love to hear a person's SONG.

Well... We all have many things to be thankful for. The most important of these... is Freedom... And it has a cost.

Last night, my son left to go to Afghanistan for 6 months. Not as a tourist. And he wanted to go. And... I helped send him there.

Yes, we have many things to be thankful for. A country that fights for the freedom of others. And that to... has a cost.

GOD BLESS AMERICA...
