My 90th entry comes on the heels of my Grandfather's 90th birthday. If he'd written one blog entry per year since his birth, or a couple a year to make up for his early pre-literate days, we'd be neck and neck right now. Actually he'd have won by a week. I want to quickly drop in a link for you to read, a bit of a pro-American rant from a Brit living in Washington D.C.
It is easy to be anti-America these days, the hard thing is to defend it without seemingly defending our disasterous policies of the Bushy years. But for as much pain as America has brought to the world, it has brought much more prosperity, knowledge and hope. America is a beacon. It's just that we currently have a big headed Texan (from Connecticut) standing in front of that beacon.
