I'll buy mice elf a job cleaning Portapotties B4 I get on Sarah's team.

As the associate producer of the movie, Woodstock, I got to see it all – and have been asked many times, “What makes Woodstock relevant today?”

“Feeding each other!” – Wavy Gravy’s exhortation – is one message that lives on, I think. So does the view of Tom Taggart, the Port-O-San Man, who had one son at Woodstock and a second in Vietnam; he had the ability and the willingness to practice tolerance of all views, though on the surface they may conflict. And don’t forget Max Yasgur, who defied his neighbors by renting his property to hippies because he thought everyone deserved a place where they could express themselves openly.

<<<We might find a lot of friendly people there>>>

Ronald Reagan was a good example of a person appearing to be nice and friendly, but his polices hurt the poor, disabled, minorities in race and sexual orientation, and the disenfranchised in general.

Scratch just a little beneath the surface and you will find not such a nice person.

Our democracy is not defined by getting a small majority together and getting license to do harm to the minority.

In short, I have to admit, I am not a person with a good sense of humor especially humor in a jugular vein.
