Fantastic, Robyn! Well done. Great seeing your name in print. Yes I admit, I like it. Everyone does, if they're honest. Interesting article and the comments are in line.

I see Palin has been found guilty of abuse of power. Hmm. How is her image now?

Woohoo! That's a great piece, Robyn.
I would have been worried about publishing that in Small Town America but I must say your commenters have restored my faith in Americans.
Wonderful stuff!

Hear, hear!! Well said Robyn. You are so right. I've seen my fair share of ordinary politicians and neither your country nor mine need any more of those. I've seen a few extraordinary ones too; thank goodness some of those still run for office.

A couple of years ago, I posted an image of the original Seuss illustration as compared to the TV cartoon image, and for some reason, that post is bringing in the crowds, relatively.

In anticipation of Thanksgiving, I feel I must post a recipe with plenty of good old American tradition.

A study was done determining that 50% of all Americans have eaten the classic Green Bean Bake, and 38% of those believe it is best served during the holidays, mainly Thanksgiving. So, for the other 50% and for those in other countries where this dish may be unfamiliar--my treat: The Classic Green Bean Bake serves 6 to 8 1 can Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup 1/2 cup milk 1 teaspoon soy sauce Dash of fresh pepper 1 20-oz. bag frozen cut green beans, thawed* 1 2.8 oz can French-fried onions -Preheat the oven to 350 F -In a casserole dish, combine the soup, milk, soy sauce and pepper. Stir in the green beans and half of the onions. -Bake until bubbling, about 25 minutes. Top with the remaining onions and bake for 5 more minutes. Serve hot. *Or cook 1 ...
