There's a
cover-photo of
Michael Jackson
on the August 6 issue of Rolling Stone
that's so profoundly sad.....so alone-on-earth
that the person who decided to put it there
must be a genius.
_____________

Last night on TV
there was a film titled
Woodstock: Now and Then
in which people continuously talked
right over some of the most cherished
performers on earth for many of us
thereby creating an insult to the memory
of a time when no one would ever have
degraded musicians and their gifts, like that.
_____________

Great leaders
have the ability
to intuit the essence of a situation
and to know how they must react to it.
That Stimulus Spending
of $787 billion dollars
created nothing in the form of
jobs or shovels on the ground
or any other kind of enhanced security
for our country or for our population.

For the same amount of money
we might have built 2 nuclear power plants
in every State of the Union
thereby getting America back to work on
the one thing we are all desperately in need of.
I wish we had a great leader.
Don't you?
