I agree with the drug thing. I grew up in the 50s and 60s. Drugs were heroin and confined to New York. The mid-60s brought the war protest and changed our view--at least mine--of govermnent. Does anyone still think the government is always right?
We hunted almost anywhere. Hardly ever saw a "No Tresspassing" sign. Same with fishing. We took off for the pheasant and deer opener. Now seeing a pheasant almost makes front page news.
I've been blessed with good kids. One from a previous marriage has become involved in "Make-a-Wish" programs. My son graduated with a 4.22 by taking advanced placement classes and my daughter's GPA will be even higher as she's taking more AP classes.
I have concerns about the survivabilty of this country. Everyone seems to want government to take care of them and bail them out. Why should all of us have to pay for the stupidity and impatience of the few who got in over their head? I worry about terrorists or mentally unstable students shooting up my son's or daughter's school. We've tipped so far, I have to check my pocket knife before I can board a plane or go to court.

Today's Featured Article - Fire in the Field A hay fire is no laughing matter-well, maybe one was! And a good life-lesson, too. Following World War II many farm boys returned home both older and wiser. One such man was my employer the summer I was sixteen. He was a farmer by birth and a farmer by choice, and like many returning soldiers, he was our silent hero: without medals or decorations, but with a certain ability to survive. It was on his farm that I learned to use the combination hand clutch and brake on a John D
