Cowgirl: Just curious about yours... ...and others' views on subject matter is all. Diversity is a very compelling subject that I think we as individuals and as investors need to address. I want to see if racism is abating in this country, not that I personally can effect it much one way or another. Does that answer your question regarding my interest in the subject? Words as well obviously fascinate me as a writer. (LOL...I've done okay as one for a 20-year career...nothing great but has paid the bills). So: in other parts of this country has the 'term' Satchmo become synonymous or not with the dreaded 'n' word? Can we hear from others here? TIA, 'bia' ###

Satchmo is an excellent name! I'm not sure why all the fuss. When you hear the name Satchmo, you think of the world's greatest trumpet player/jazz singer Louis Armstrong. I can't think of any other meaning for it. It's an honor to be named after a person as great as him. How could that offend anyone? Seems silly. -Clappy P.S. "What a Wonderful World" is one of my all time favorite songs. I also love "When The Saints Come Marching In". His version of a song, changes the song...forever. -ArmstrongsHorn

When I got a new horse my Nick was beside himself. I remember putting the new horse Rick in the cross ties and starting brushing him when I could feel a hard cold stare focused on me. Looking behind me I saw Nick with ears back and a face so ugly a mother could'nt even love. I told my ex Nick is jealous, he said" oh come on, your putting to much into it". I told him okay then go into his stall and make sure he"s okay. He went in and Nick turned around with teeth beared and pushed him into the wall ( To bad he did'nt hurt him, but thats another story) And they say horses r dumb. Also I think Satchmo is a good name. My last cat was black and I named him Tyrone. Nothing racial he just looked like a Tyrone to me. We should have a name picking contest here on Si for your new horse. The winner gets a 100 shares of Qcom. HG48
