YP-

I've been on a different planet this week so I am catching up. Your soul is so vulnerable to life's cruel barbs. I wish I was there to shield you from them.  His insults shows he's stepped to a new shallow. His slurs show him for the viral microbe he is.  Women everywhere were insulted and they've hit him where it hurts. Cut the money and it's like sprinkling salt on a slug.  I just am careful to let his goo get on my shoe or I'll just scrape it off. HE's just an old slug.

THANX RAES/KATRAY, PROPERLEY & CHRIS SCRAMBLE.Was tired last night to post

that is what inpired the sonnet. But Chris & friends it is great to know we are a caring community, ready to reach oput when one of us is hurting. I was depressed at how often Don Imus gets away by saying horrible, racist things. He just doesn't try it with Jewish and Israelis. That's why i know he is doing it with some one covering his back. shalomfromneil

I had faith in God.  God told me to name him Joshua.  I didn't know it was a pun.

Powerful message, well expressed and oh so timely, YPunday!

     Very tragic and disheartening, indeed. Dare to speak out against senseless slaughter and destruction and be branded a traitor; slur and hurt good people; shrugged off like acid free rain..
