My gawd! This is a real car wreck! Last night 60 Minutes did a segment on DHL closing down and literally wiping out the town.

There was much crying, whining and blaming but there was one good old boy who'd just lost his son in Iraq and now his job. He's having trouble putting food on the table for his family. But, he wasn't whining. He did have tears in his eyes. He was making hunting knives in his garage and said they'd be having one night a week with no electricity. Now this guy is an American! When the going get tough. The tough get going.
