I firmly believe the real reason for the recession is greed in the ranks of the politicians and the very rich. Honesty, integrity and ethics are absolutely not being practiced by them. Just for starters, I would like every one who reads this to send me an e-mail if they really believe that the two senators, who did not pay their taxes, really did not know they didn't.

Why do we still have a 53 cents a gallon on imported ethanol? ...more

"Lost" returns tonight on ABC. I know I'm supposed to be thrilled. Part of me is, I guess. But deep inside, doubt grows. "Lost" now resembles significant others I remember from my single days. I know it's someone I need to quit but can't, even though all my friends say I should. I'm starting to have trouble remembering why I was so into this relationship. I haven't understood a thing that was going on for months. ...more
