Hi Folks!
Long time no see. Well, there's more to it than just that; there is always more.
It's election time in Florida. You can bet that I have some distinct thoughts about the gubernatorial election coming up. If you have been watching the news, even in Oshkosh, you must have seen the brouhaha regarding a piece of electronic equipment which Mr. Crist had installed in his podium. That there was a tempest in a teapot. And it truly made me, although I was already in his camp, a (you got it) FANatic of Charlie Crist.
Too many folks don't realize that the best work for America has been done by Centrist, or God Forbid Liberal Republicans. Some of the best governors of the state of New York were Centrist Republicans; and I can say sadly that I was not old enough to be able to vote for Mr. Nelson Rockefeller even once!
"Conservative" Republicans or anarchistic Tea Party fanatics will tell you that Crist is a flip-flopper, in it for the money and fame, and not at all concerned with Florida. On the other hand they want to forget that he is a Floridian; and that he went to school here, lived here, and served the community here. Whereas Dick Snott is a life-long CON man. Oh folks, you know I like to give praise when it is truly due. Dick Snott is GOOD at being a CON man and a fine actor to boot. It's just that I am tired of seeing this country torn apart by money grubbing corporations while the rest of us are treated like second class citizens and very soon, if they get their way, SLAVES.
So I don't really have much to say about the gubernatorial elections in Florida .... HA!
There will be more to come on this point.
I will also be covering education (M.S. in Ed.), the influx of children from Mexico and points south (lived and studied in Mexico City for seven and a half years as dad worked as a legal attache to the American Embassy), teaching in the United States, learning in the United States and the economy and the morality of being RICH.
I think that's light reading for any one. Meanwhile I'll ponder the do's and don'ts for a man close to seventy; and how to schedule all the doctor and surgeons appointment so that one might also go out and look at property with realtors (have also sold and listed properties in  Florida and before that in Virginia before coming here).
There's more to come on almost everything except quadratic equations. Whichever of you with questions regarding that subject may now leave the room. More to come..........
