I remembered that post very well. How could I forget? After ROFLMAO for five minutes, I could barely breathe<g>.

Unfortunately (and I mean that sincerely since I would love to see a return to the values you mentioned) crime rates have started to rise again and the sleazy, cheesy decadence of American popular culture has only gotten worse. Watched many recent movies or checked your local magazine rack? Seen the kind of television available when young children are watching? As Sharp said, we live in a country obsessed with sex, scandal, money and power and now wallowing in the apathy of a 39% voter turnout. I don't know what will change that but 9/11 didn't do it and an occasional game of musical chairs between the two major political parties is not the cause and not the solution.
