My Kenya Connection
I have been riding by bike to work for nine months. I started this because the gas prices were getting so high. Not only am I saving money, but I am certainly healthier due to the effort. I left my bike at work last Friday because a good friend of mine came to pick me up. We got pizza and took it home. My friend, whom I affectionately refer to as my "Kenya Connection" is moving back to Kenya for an indiffinent amont of time. She is an American Citizen but Kenya is where she was born and raised. Kenya is her homeland and I think if I were to ever win the lottery I would seriously consider investing in her little island off of Kenya, Mombasa. Her heart, I think, lies in Kenya but her taste buds long for the junk food of America.Well, Monday I got a ride to work because we were taking our car into the shop for some fixing-up, and Monday night I also got a ride home from a friend because the electric went out and I could not get my bike out of the building I work in. Soooooooo... Tuesday morning I rode the bus to work...it was packed...standing room only. Tuesday I started getting a sore throat...I rode my bike home. Wednesday I rode to work...I had such a high fever Wednesday I do not know how I got home, I followed a friend of mine that also rides to and from work on his bike, it was really hot out but I was chilled. Anyway, my point here is I do not want to ever have to ride the bus again...and I have used public transportation all of my life. I will still ride da bus.
I stayed home from work Thursday and Friday...as I write this I am still sick. It is really too bad that when people get sick they cannot stay home and get better. We get sick because our immune system is down in the dumps...we need rest, not seudafed. No one can afford to stay home and get better anymore and we cannot really afford to see a decent doctor (are there any left?) We, Americans really need to have some adjustments done pertaining to the way we think. No one really cares about each other...think...why we hardly are allowed to care about ourselves.
This brings me to one more thing "National Health Insurance". If the state of Hawaii can afford to give this genuine caring to its population than I am sure the the other 49 Great States could follow in its lead. I lived there from 1975-1980 and every living person was covered then as now.........hummmmmmmmmmm wonder what seems to be the problem elsewhere.
The United States (49) of America are and is a Sham!!!

If The War Goes ON...
Click to Play...Click to Stop
If the war goes on and the children die of hunger,
And the old men weap, for the young men are no more,
And the women learn how to dance without a partner,
Who will keep the score?
If the war goes on and the truth is taken hostage,
And new terrors lead to the need to euphemize;
When the calls for peace are declared unpatriotic,
Who'll expose the lies?
If the war goes on and the daily bread is terror,
And the voiceless poor take the road as refugees;
When a nation's pride destines millions to be homeless,
Who will heed their pleas?
If the war goes on and the rich increase their fortunes,
And the arms sales soar as new weapons are displayed;
When a fertile field turns to no-man's land tomorrow,
Who'll approve such trade?
If the war goes on, will we close the doors to heaven?
If the war goes on, will we breach the gates of hell?
If the war goes on, will we ever be forgiven? If the war goes on...

Aloha...Hello...Love...Goodby
The Coqui Frog has migrated to another land. Originally from Puerto Rico, the Coqui has decided to migrate to Hawaii, to help out, you know to do their part. Unfortunately, not all of the residents of Hawaii appreciate the coqui's generosity. Coquis are a lot like geckos, they eat unwanted bugs. They are part of the great food chain. We are grateful to the first coqui that landed in Hawaii. If some people find the love call of the coqui annoying, then you guys have really missed the point.Aloha
Listen to the coqui....

I don't understand either...
I have never felt so horrible as I have felt under this "Bush Régime." I cannot remember a time in my life that I have felt so betrayed by my government. It was Thomas Jefferson who said, "When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.” Jefferson should be studied…he was a genuine libertarian. You are absolutely correct, we do not tolerate lying from anyone…but don’t be fooled…we are lied to. Our government’s lies will not be tolerated, the walls will come tumbling down, and all the king’s horses and all the king’s men will not be able to put George (hmmmm the name of John John’s Magazine) together again. I live every day with the hope that we the people of America, will gracefully, and honorably elevate ourselves above all this sewage, that we have complacently allowed to accumulate and engulf this great country with. This wonderful idea of freedom and liberty that has been entrusted to us must be protected.

Yep...
 | You scored as Idealist. Idealism centers around the belief that we are moving towards something greater. An odd mix of evolutionist and spiritualist, you see the divine within ourselves, waiting to emerge over time. Many religious traditions express how the divine spirit lost its identity, thus creating our world of turmoil, but in time it will find itself and all things will again become one.
