Where are the Hispanics

Interesting video on Hispanics in Soccer. Primary reason for not playing: "Pay to Play System". We need more inclusive programs for kids to play!


How true!

I remember a few years back, my relatives complaining about their flight to Toronto. I told them, hey, "it used to take people months to get here from Europe, now it takes 8 hours and you are complaining?"

Here is Andrew playing with the concert Orchestra. This first piece is kind of fun.


Here is the 2nd One:

Current Economic Situation

Submitted by paul on Fri, 01/30/2009 - 02:01.

I think we are missing the point.

The old system is broken. Let's talk about that.

There are arguments about what to do to help ease the burden of the current recession. The Democrats want a stimulus package that includes $850 billion package, the Republicans want more tax cuts. It's the same debate we have been hearing about for the last 30 years. Yet, it seems to me that something much bigger is really happening right now. There is a change that is much bigger than stimulus spending or tax cuts. It's the Internet.

Response from Senator Lugar

Submitted by paul on Fri, 12/19/2008 - 17:51.

Senator Lugar responded to my letter. Once again, he and his staff impress me because he always answers my question. The other 2 representatives I write, always give me a form letter that does not address what I wrote about in the first place. While Lugar's has elements of a form letter, he still answers my question.

Most important to me, he really does sum up what our challenges are globally. Something I am not sure his fellow Hoosiers truly appreciate or understand the impact of the global marketplace. If we lose him, it will be a sad day for this country:

Dear Mr. Lorinczi:

The Wall Street Bailout

Submitted by paul on Mon, 12/08/2008 - 21:30.

Now that the elections are over and Sarah Palin is back where she should be, I need to ask a questions.

Why did we let Wall Street get away with getting their money, while we are forcing the Auto Industry to give us more in return? It seems a little strange to me that the auto industry is being forced to provide more concessions for a loan bailout, while the financial industry only got their hand slapped.

Letter to Senator Lugar

Dear Senator Lugar,

I just read today that you have expressed no interest in the post of Secretary of State in an President Elect Obama cabinet.

Your country needs you in this important role. You are the one figure in this country that can represent our interests abroad with instant credibility from world leaders. There is no one more qualified than you.

Will Joe the Plumber get a cabinet position in a McCain Administration?

Submitted by paul on Sat, 11/01/2008 - 14:17.

Joe the Plumber should be the McCain Administration's Secretary of State. His extensive knowledge of US-Israeli relations makes him the logical choice should the McCain administration win.

His education and background makes him an expert in different forms of government. Particularly, his understanding of the differences between Communism, Socialism, and Capitalism. Oh, I forgot, I believe he is an expert in Islam too. After all, he has eaten lamb at the Lebanese restaurant in Toledo. (Well, maybe he hasn't).

The Age of Fear

Submitted by paul on Fri, 10/24/2008 - 00:53.

9/11 when everything changed
The day fear took over
The age of anger and hate

They want to kill you
Can't you see?
Give up your freedom
You will be safe
Give your power to me

Let's fight with each other
Let's call each other names
Just do what I say
No questions please

Christians beware
The end is near
We will make it happen
Follow us there

Do not think
It is no longer necessary
Feel the anger, the fear
Kill the enemy

No longer do we fear, fear itself
We embrace it everyday
Giving up our freedoms
So we can be safe

What happen to America?
