Almost forgot, yesterday as we were coming out of church, there was a family with three or four big boys climbing into a great big pickup truck, they were all watching out for the youngest sibling however, the prettiest little Chinese girl, she was so dressed up, blessed me to see them.

In general, people are getting much more open in their attitudes. We have come a long way. I think it has to do somewhat with how you were raised. Where I grew up way back when, the socalled N word was very common is everyday usage. My mother spanked me for saying that word. It was made clear that the word was not to be used in our house.

I have heard that it is really hard to have to investigate these cases day in and day out. If society will not change then enforcement must be stepped up.

Postscript--Hoarding Humor - Blog Entry

Art, I want to bring this up on the article that talks about this issue in a humorous vein, because I know that all of this is serious business. I kind of relate to Daniel. Now that I am retired all of my business and the family business gets conducted on my desk at home. Others think that it is messy. Maybe so, but I know where my stuff is. These people, they are very nice, come in to clean our house once a week. They make my desk look neat, but I can't find anything. It takes me a couple of days to get it back in working order. Art, why won't they leave my stuff alone?

Thanks for the encouragement rsbg. It is fun being thin for a change. Tommy is a heart patient and can not play many sports because of it. Maybe he will take up golf. I will have to buy a set of clubs though.

rsbg, I saw the numbers that they were going to add, I can't find it now but I think they are increasing it 4 fold.

Art, the other place was not in the news. The lady that taught us CPR when we were getting licensed told us about it. She had taught CPR to the people that work there, as I remember.
