I read where Dolly Parton

 has a program where she mails an age appropriate book to children from birth to age five.

That speaks highly of her.

What even speaks more highly is that she uses her own money to do this and not someone else's.

Ths is a great case of someone putting their money where their mouth is. 

We need more of this.

People ought to learn how to mind their own business said an old classmate.

He's right. They certainly should.

A big part of the problems we face in this country is people that spend their lives trying to tell other people what to do.

While nobody likes being told what to do there are some people that ought to be. The people that ought to be told what to do are the people that try and run everyone else's life. They should be told to mind their own business.

It sounds like a round robin but it isn't.

One of the things that drives me nuts are hokey two sided things.

September's sticker reads 'Drive safely. School's in session'.

Of course come June the sticker changes to 'Dive safely. School's out'

When do you get to drive like a maniac?

Of course, one should always drive safely. The point is that it always seems like the do-gooders always seem to be playing a two faced game of Catch-22. They try and set a person up with a damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario. It's really quite annoying.  

I could go with a simple 'Drive safely. Watch for children.' because that isn't a stupid little game of bogus excuses.
