You may wander what happened to me.

Well, I haven't died. Just a string of busy events and happenings have kept me from bloviating. So, here goes.

Society is sometime harsh. The society we live in today is not the same as when we were younger. Why would I think otherwise? You used to leave the house unlocked. So much so that you forgot where you last saw the key. When my family once went on a 21 day vacation I decided to lock the house. I had to get new keys made.

A week ago my house, which was securely locked for the three hours that we were gone, was broken into and I had to replace my laptop computer. You all have replaced a computer sometime. It is hard enough when you have the old one to refer to. Try to remember all your little tricks that you developed on you missing computer. Luckily I had all my important files and folders backed up. Some of the programs had been downloaded from the supplier and remained on the Desktop, with no back up. When you ave to go back to the supplier and prove that you already own the rite to download, it takes more time. You know what I've been doing in all my spare time the last few days.

Now to get to the real important stuff. Congress has been up to the no good stuff that they have been up to increasingly since the first of the year and I have been discouraged at times but I come out of it with the help of my many new friends in the Michiana 9/12 Project. If you don't know about them here is their web address: http://www.michiana912.org/ . They have been a real inspiration to me. Since I joined on April 1 this organization has increased by nearly 350 members.

The ironic thing is that they are acting as if we didn't exist and we will see to it that they know we are here when election day comes. I have the strong feeling that the Tea Party and 9/12 movement will make a real difference and will be shaker for many years after I am gone from this side of the sod.

If you haven't become a member of one of these groups in your region, you should. Don't let your country down. We need numbers and your are more than a number.
