Fundraiser, Please Click On The Link to help a GOOD CAUSE!
November 4, 2009 My dad has a debilitating illness. He can no longer be cared for at home, and he resides in a skilled nursing center called The Pines of Sarasota, in Sarasota, Florida. The Pines gives very high quality care for people even after they have exhausted their resources. It is also a nonprofit which depends on private fundraising efforts. My dad's wife, Marjorie, has a great opportunity to raise funds for The Pines, but it depends on her getting clicks on an internet site. Can you help by clicking on her site, HERE?

Or is it the beginning? When I went to China, I was a particular person with thoughts, hopes, and dreams. China changed me. Living overseas, in a different culture, does that to people! I imagine that the further we are, culturally, from our home culture, the more changed we become. When we return, however, we find that we have changed but our native culture has not. We must learn a new way of fitting into it. When I returned from China, I knew intellectually th

I was the only person in the bicycle shop. I was at the counter, making a small purchase and chatting with the owner, when a young man pulled into the parking lot, driving a loud motorcycle. He strode up to the counter and asked if the bike shop had some part he needed for his motorcycle. The young fellow was tatooed and pierced. He had on makeup and had spiked hair. He was wearing all black Goth clothes. He made his purchase and left. This was in the early 1980's in rural South Carolina. Around these parts, we didn't see much of that type of dress. It brought to mind television images I had seen of neo-Nazis and hate groups. Not saying a word, I j
