Fran here. It's time to write in my own voice for the nonce. The message I need to hammer home isn't suited to the Curmudgeon Emeritus's quasi-scholastic sarcasm. About thirty years ago, Professor John Hospers told an audience of young libertarians that though the forces of liberty are on the march, so are the forces of tyranny. Their comparative rates of advance, not the ardency of their allegiants, would determine the future of human freedom. Professor Hospers meant that statement as a call

Word associations from "Summer in the City." (And I do remember that Loving Spoonfuls version!) 1. rooftop ~Going on the roof of our building in NYC to watch the fireworks on July 4th.

This post is dedicated to all neglected parents in the world, and was also written in loving memory of my own father and grandparents, who made me who I am today. I LOVE YOU WHEREVER YOU MAY BE and if you were alive today you know I will never leave your side until I die. Never. Below are 2 pics of a real Mother and a Father who now live in Homes for the Aged (put there by their own children who can't lookafter them). These pics were taken from 2 different personal Web albums of 2 great people
