If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people - their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties - someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad; if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal." - John F. Kennedy

Flash Floods
It may just be my faulty memory but it sure seems to me that we are seeing more extreme weather than I ever remember. We have always had summer 'cloudbursts' but the ones lately seem harder and longer than I recollect. The flash flooding in Arkansas last week and now the flooding in Oklahoma City just seem extraordinary. Madam is on the phone right now with our friends in NW Arkansas to see how they are making out. I hope the folks in Oklahoma City and surrounds make out better than the folks in Arkansas. What a way for a peaceful holiday in the woods to end.
