Big News Today
2007 will be here tommorrow and according to some news stations the USA will have 300 million people by then, or soon..........................
This news is alarming to many. As I listened on CNN I heard that one of the reasons this is a "big concern" is becuase the planet will soon no longer be able to feed everyone? The USA will have 300,000 and somehow that means the planet will run out of food. Poor timing I guess.
The Wolf
Really good news here. The Wolf is being reintroduced into West Yellowstone. I have read a little about the wolf this last year. A favorite story is about the good wolf and bad wolf inside us all, mentioned on another blog. Seems like the same folks that want the wolf reintroduced want us to have 200, rather than 300 million people here. Good timing for the wolf.
Good Day to Read the Funny Papers
This is not that easy however. The paper person was unable to drive by and deliver the paper. Now of course having had a paper route for maybe close to a year when I was a young man it may be time to talk about how I had to do it on my bike. No older folks took those jobs back then. Of course today you hardly ever see a kid that delivers the paper. Yes Sir. I went out in the early morning and braved the bad weather and did my paper route. I learned a lot doing that. Some of the real basic values perhaps even more helpful than a formal education was the "big" lesson that I learned as I delivered papers. When you finish the month in the red your not in a good business, was the lesson. That was it. I thought of it a few times over the years.
"Rule of Thumb"
If a guy laughs at the comics and laughs at good cartoons he must be a good guy. My dad taught me that valuable lesson. Like the paper route some lessons you have to gain through experience.
Boy I can hardly wait until
Midnight
A lone wolf stands in the forest. For me it seems to represent "individuality". 300 million "individuals". "One lone wolf". "All individuals", looking up or not.
