Thanksgiving


This was a post, never before published, from thanksgiving. Please ignore the typos... I'm sure you'll enjoy this work, while I devote my time to a more current post...

My friend, K is always good about being thankful. Thankful for all we have as Americans. Even with, a maybe corrupt and definitely too secretive administration. We still have a great country. It is an anomable to have to resort to begging to get food and shelter. actually, using the great secret tools at my disposal. I found out that 36 million Americans live below the poverty line. 700 million of the world's population goes hungry...

100 billion pounds of food is wasted in America each year. and I believe that's not counting food "consumed" in eating competitions. speaking of wasting... if we are serious about fixing the world's problems, starting with say, Global Warming, we should demand that all sports car racing, is done with hybrids. Sure the races might be slower, but isn't the point of sports to see how you compare to everyone else? does it really matter to the 100,000 fans in the stands that the car they are rooting for is only traveling at 55 mph? I mean the best driver, is the fastest, assuming everyone is using the same type of engine and vehicle. Think about the endurance required to travel 500 miles at 55 mph... that's 9 hours of driving. it'd be like seeing a resident complete her 30 hour shift, having to make crucial life and death decisions after 29 hours of work.

it is important to be thankful for what you have.... remember the 36 million Americans that don't. and Don't waste food. or gas.
