This just in....I've received four emails regarding yesterday's As It Stands column on, "A President With PTSD?" Three liked the column and the fourth went ballistic on me and demanded I "recant" my column!
Interestingly enough the person was a Republican who didn't believe his nominee for the White House could have PTSD. Apparently he thinks McCain is exempt from what affects other human beings who are tortured for years.
I really wish my column was more accesible in the Online version of The Times-Standard. Only readers with subscriptions can see it, which I fear narrows down the potential audience. I guess there's a lesson to be learned here. Nothing in life is perfect.
Today I plan on picking up where I left off on my new book. I'm also going to make some stew - which should be easy as we have a crock pot. I just have to throw all the makings in and...hopefully a good tasting stew!
HERE'S A THOUGHT
Long term goals keep you from being frustrated by short-term failures.
Famous Quote of The Day
"Dictators ride to and fro upon tigers which they dare not dismount. And the tigers are getting hungry."
A Funny Look at World News
Barrack Obama recently gave a speech in Germany and 200,000 people attended. There were so many Germans shouting that France surrendered just in case!
