BTW, I've been away for quite a while because I got bored with the blog as nobody responded. I also got into a downward spiral because of my extended unemployment. I'm still out of work but things are looking much, much better at this point. So all I need now is for people to actively participate. You don't have to agree with me, just participate!
The purpose of this blog is to allow me and hopefully you to vent a little bit about things going on around us. Not all of them are earth shattering or critically important but I usually have an opinion on just about everything and I'd like to hear yours. Jump in!

What Country Am I From?
I'm sitting here watching the Olympics and they just showed a couple skating for Georgia, the country not the state. The woman is a US Citizen that lives in the US whose mother is Japanese (not sure about the father). Apparently she has a sister and brother also involved in this Olympics that are representing Japan. I guess just before things started the government in Georgia did a rush job on her citizenship papers so she could skate on the Georgian team. But she is a US Citizen and lives here. Shouldn't that put her on the American team? I don't get it.
