The shipwrecked mariner had spent several years on a deserted island. Then one morning he was thrilled to see a ship offshore and a smaller vessel pulling out toward him.
 
When the boat grounded on the beach, the officer in charge handed the marooned sailor a bundle of newspapers and told him, "With the captain's compliments. He said to read through these and let us know if you still want to be rescued."

Awe....I don't know. Losin' a hundred grand here and a hundred grand there still ain't as bad as having to live off the fruit of the land. On a deserted island.   Or in France.

On a serious note, my older brother got back from a "hunger summit" in Nairobi, Kenya last Thursday. When I talked to him on Sunday he said it was still hard for  him to process what he saw in to coherent thoughts and words. He said it makes the poorest of the poor in the Phillipines or Sri Lanka look like Warren Buffet by comparison. So I'm very thankful to be where I am even if times are looking to get harder.
The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking....... If he does he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog.
