Thanksgive it up.

What a calm, wonderfulday?

Washington rain.

Family.

We watched the New York "parade" today on the tv set.

POP: What's this world coming to?!!

RODLEEN: What's this world coming to?!! It's coming to a day and age where parades stand still.

I was actually impressed with all of the songs that got sung (or, rather, lip-sunkt) during the programming. It was really great to hear all of the people singing. I love disney-esque music. The opera singer rocked, too, although she was the worst actress of them all. Her dress was gorgeous, tho. All dressed in white.

I do not usually watch television.

We also heard about the war and the deaths and lebanon and Iran.

What a mess for the U.S.!

My big question of the last decade and a half -

Why doesnt America focus on our own country's inner strength and longevity?

Why? Because, this nation's leadership is more concerned with "maintaining our world power status," as the Secretary of State to President George H. W. Bush informed me during a crossfire in Washington, D.C. in July 1992.

This still makes absolutely no sense to me: the fact that this country puts the major focus outwardly rather than inwardly. In numbers and through unification, we will withstand.
