We take this fine country for granted. Nowhere else on the planet have so many people from so many diverse backgrounds melded into what I consider home.
I used to go overseas about once or twice a year for work. I have seen enough to know things here are very good.
I have had a homeless man come up to me in Chicago with a torn t-shirt and holey jeans and runners and it was -20C! He wanted some spare change. It could be an elaborate scam and if it was, a painful one.
Similar if not as graphic in Europe and Japan. These were all first world countries!
Penguins are only found in Antarctica. There are a few smaller variants as far north as Australia and a few tropical islands.
We are endowed with some of the best moronic shock jocks and columnists and we should soon overtake the USA as they are number one for these ignorant biased hypocritical apparent morons. Their audience is the moronic and uneducated and they sink to below their level to communicate with them. Their stock in trade is engendering fear and uncertainty with totally made up stuff! They shame us all.
