Why don't we just ;let the good people of South Korea settle things with the North Koreans? It's their peninsula, not ours.
Life moves on and at 94 there are still some deep- seated feelings I MUST have "one more say on." The're things about America's present society that truly vex me. It's been thrilling to see how well my views have been received by Reddit's young people both in D. C, and throughout the world the past three years. Improving communication between the generations has been a major cause of mine throughout my elder years. I hope you will check my view out and share your insights with me.

NBA bests the NFL
With the stupidity of the owners of the NFL: clubs, it is refreshing to see the action of the San Antonio Spurs on another front: replacing scantily clad young women with "family friendly gymnastic" teams. Small, enlightened steps of progress are so important but often overlooked.

Was it not ironic hypocrisy?
That the (otherwise)
meaningful and beautiful service of Meghan and Harry began with the
statement to the effect, "marriage is the joining of a man and a
woman" was in stark contrast with the sermon extolling "the
love between two people."
If I heard it right, I'm
sorry I did not join the throngs of young people who must've been
tempted to tune out yet another religious service.

Another lesson at Uber University!
It was my first trip on
Uber Pool to see a notation reading, "Driver may be deaf or hard
of hearing." Indeed he was totally deaf, but other than
limiting my "usual" conversation, the drive went very
smoothly through busy traffic. He appeared to be in his 30's, and
seated next to him on the front seat, I could notice that his stylish
cap read" Ethiopia". I tried to converse with him by
stating that I had been to nearby Egypt!
How remarkable that I,
because of my handicap in walking, was being assisted by a recent
immigrant who was totally oblivious to the spoken word. I smiled at
him in our mutual derision at the lady who insisted that he make a
difficult turn in horrible traffic in order to take her merely
one=half block closer to her designated address. I wondered what he
must've thought about the American fetish for ease and service.
How I wish I could have
the opportunity to converse with him to learn more about his possible
trials or tribulations in entering our country. How I wish I could
show that I would like to be his friend. But at least I luckily
remembered that giving him my business card might be some evidence of
friendship.
