“One Man’s Opinion”
Part I
What is going on in this country? Murders at Fort Hood, Murders in
Orlando, Murders in Cleveland. It seems like every week we hear of
some new atrocity. Who or what is causing this lack of self control
and disregard for human life. Is it the economy? Is it the pressure
and stresses of losing your job and possibly your home. Is it the hopelessness of seeking new em-
ployment? Is it a lack of confidence that the government will fix the country and all will be well? Is it a
lack of faith in the Devine and an absence of belief that prayer and patience will bring you through
the your current tribulations? Or is it something else. Perhaps the end of a great civilization like the
Egyptians or Romans? Could it be that the Mayans were right and the end of the world is coming in
a little over two years? Or should we be looking for the Anti-Christ. I don’t know. I have never seen
such looks of despair as I have lately. I hear many, many conversations about how bad things are.
What should we be doing differently? I don’t know.

I can make a recommendation though. If you are feeling helpless and that your world has fallen
apart. If you feel self destructive or worse yet the compulsion to hurt others, get help immediately.
There are still agencies out there that will help you. Go see a minister, they will be glad to help. Talk
to family and friends, they really do care about you. They will go to the ends of the earth for you.
Whatever you do, take care of yourself. Things will get better. You WILL get through this. Be
Blessed.

Part II
Many of you mentioned the obituary of my canine friend Glenn (The Wonder Dog) in the last issue.
A lot of you, OK four of you, asked about him, so I decided to tell you one of our stories. A few years
back we were watching a baseball game on TV. I was drinking a vodka and juice and Glenn was
having a beer (he was old enough). Anyway, Glenn got up to stretch his legs and I asked him to fix
me another drink. He went into the kitchen and yelled back that I was out of cranberry juice. I said
never mind, but when I looked up he was heading out the door with my car keys and wallet in his
mouth.

By the time I got outside Glenn had already backed out of the driveway and was heading down the
street. I yelled at him but I guess he had the radio up too loud. I finally caught up with him as he was
about to turn the corner. He stopped the car and rolled down the window and asked “what’s up”? I
said bring me a pack of cigarettes too…...

Just, One Man’s Opinion.
