I consider myself fairly civilized, but the wild man in me is drawn to the show “Man vs. Wild.” On the latest episode, Bear cornered a porcupine in a burrow in Namibia. Not a very smart move, but it made for great tv.
Warning!! **SPOILER ALERT!** - Porcupine dies…not gruesome, but watch at your own risk.
My daughters separately asked me what this book was about. They both know who Barack Obama is and so I told them that it was basically about how he thinks he can make America better. My youngest volunteered to tell me how to make America better and her plan included the following:
Don’t litter.
Save water.
Recycle.
Be nice to people.
My oldest daughter had a little different way of looking at things. She’s obsessed with things that scare her and currently her biggest fear is a tornado. Her “New Deal” included:
Make houses tornado proof.
That’s about it. She just wanted to make sure catastrophic events didn’t happen.
As for me, I say: Let’s start by not littering so that tornadoes don’t have garbage in them.
