Let me fly, says little birdie,
Mother, let me fly away.
—Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Don't we all want to fly away? Isn't there a better place out there away from home? The boy can't fly, but he can climb a tree and ride the wind. The girl, high on imaginary wings, flies to her own land of dreams. Even mothers and fathers, together and alone, need to fly - away from work, house, and the everyday same old things. But we all need to return as well. We need to know that home is the one safe place to land, that there we can rest, recover our strength, tell our tales to family and friends.
Our home is safe and comfortable, but if we never leave, even for a short while, we will never take the action necessary to bring our dreams to life.
What small comfort might I give up for today in order to make a dream come true?

In recent days, The Washington Post, The New York Times and other major news outlets have recounted the "troubled" history of the poor people's advocacy group ACORN, but left out ...
Evenin' Mr. Leopold,
25 years ago, ACORN worked with the CBOE to train mothers as Data Entry Operators for OEX Trading Operations. Some of these Hires would become Quote Operators, Book Clerks, Post Supervisors climbing up the Social Ladder while raising families on their own.
This is the ACORN I know, admire and will defend.
Can ACORN file a Class Action suit for Libel?
It bears merit.
Can Newscorp, FOX & the GOP afford the fines, the penalties with interest?
Yes they Can!
Sincerely,
Peter Lott Heppner
