Today's number is 24


Oh, but ain't that America
For you and me
Ain't that America
Something to see, baby
Ain't that America
Home of the free, yeah
Little pink houses
For you and me"Pink Houses" (John Mellencamp - 1983)
There are times when I just wanna take a mega phone and tell the world that disabled life is rarely as it is portrayed on Tee Vee. Most of the time we keep to ourselves, or at least my wife and I do. She has a circle of friends she hangs with now and then but we're both home bodies. And I lost touch with the only 2 friends I ever had after leaving home for good.
If you've got one (or several), you know where to plonk them down.
Some clouds from the front garden.
Keep calm and carry on.

The number 21 reminds me of my childhood hero, Roberto Clemente. He had a human quality missing from so many of today's pop culture icons. BTW, politics is pop culture. Because it sure as hell is not about the common good.
