Hi. um. so I like to write songs, right? my life is, music. and books, and quotes, and poems, etc. But I'm also terrified to let anyone actually READ my songs. so maybe you guys could help? and talk to me and give me pointers? I want to
I need to
I'm thinking
Perhaps i should undo
I'll just let you down
With all those things you want from me
Unbelieving
Unaccepting
Uneverything with a positive ring
I'll just let you down
All those things you do get from me.

new york state wildlife expert richard thomas found that a woodchuck could   chuck around 35 feet of dirt in the course of digging a burrow. thomas reasoned that if a woodchuck could chuck wood, he would chuck an amount equivalent to the weight of the dirt, or 700 pounds.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
