we all do that..and its human nature...but if we all are responsible for what happens in this world, the ripple effect might not be as bad or have as bad a reaction to all other countries.

As far as the land investment...at least my family will always have a place to live...and yes, in that I was being selfish myself.

I hope that what is happening with America doesn't have an enormous effect on others...but if it does, may it be short lived.

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
