Just a little under seven years ago, my life changed. Actually, I think every American’s life changed, whether they can admit it or not. Who among us ever would’ve thought the course of American history would be changed so drastically in a matter of moments? I certainly didn’t, and I bet most of you didn’t either. Let’s face it. We in this country have been able to lead what a great many might call insulated lives. Depending on your point of view, I suppose you could see that as “lucky”.
Even in California, with divorce rates hovering around 50%, the dissolution of a marriage is still looked upon as a sad and tragic event – celebrity breakups notwithstanding. Most people still believe (I hope) that one should work thru their marital difficulties and use divorce only as a last resort. The question is: Does this hold true for the relationships between countries…and are we now at that point with the Arab world?
I had hoped I would meet Tony Snow one day. In fact, I was certain I would, and soon.
Unfortunately, his cancer had other plans.
Have you ever felt that even though you’ve never met a person, you were absolutely certain that person was a cool guy? Well, take 10 minutes, watch this video, and get a glimpse of Tony Snow. For me, he was one of those cool guys.
