No Question About It

Such a simple question heaven forbid.
There’s no trickery that has been hid.
Would I be able to guess,
how many live in U.S. -
I replied, I thought everyone did.

An adorable limerick; you're right about that; a monotone world is never exciting; diversity is necessary for success and...sometimes sanity. Luv it.

HAHA Great one here Lindsay. Love it. However I always say you can't color an entire country or race of people with one crayon. No matter where you are for every jerk you meet you will meet one decent person as well. Sometimes though you do have to look close to see the swan swimming just on the outside of a group of ducks. Well done my friend. God Bless, JB

Thank you Judy. You are very wise with your views and I must admit I do agree with you. There are plenty of great people around but it appears that only bad news sells - catch you soon Judy - Lindsay

In a humorous way you have focused our attention to our sick ego and tragic flaw. You should get a medal for this one. I'd like to see it broadcast on every station. If we realized that the world is not simply for "us" we would be on a start for something wonderful. The moron's idea that we should put ourselves first is sickening.

Yep Duke … we're all different, but we're all human on track to become robotic - thanks Duke - Lindsay
