Dadgum, that lady can write

Once again Kathleen Parker adds a bit of rational thought to the public conversation. I can't say that I can find a single thing in this column with which I disagree. My lack of disagreement is obviously not what makes it rational. It is the common sense that Mr. Parker continues to bring to the table.

Regards,

D-Ray

I liked what I read. Something to think about IMO: the best, most important things in life are free if one thinks about it.

Thought I'd be honest and add this. What I said above took me years to wake up and realize. My family is much happier.

As you already know, I'm a Kathleen Parker fanboy - another excellent piece.

A person should do one good deed every day for someone who is less fortunate than themselves.

Provided they don't know who you are or what your phone number is.

Ever pay the toll for the car behind you? It is kinda fun to watch their face in your rear view mirror as the toll collector refuses their money and tells them it is already paid.

No, but I have dropped off of the shoulder on an inside turn and sprayed them with gravel if they were riding my bumper.

I couldn't see their faces in the rear view as they always dropped back to a decent length.

But it was kinda fun!!!

A Republican pay someone elses toll? He wants to start a revolution because you're asking his stingy ass to pay his own toll.

Come on, Carl. Think, man.

I guess I am just giddy that the actor who gave the people of Ca., breaking his campaign promise, the biggest tax increase ever in his first term, and left us with probably our biggest deficit ever, even accounting for inflation, is finally gone.

Yeah, a leftie will pay the toll, with someone else's money, right blue?
