I hope things get better in OZ quick! A lot of good folks have been through pure he77. People just don't realize how bad things are when you lose everything completly. Something as simple as an air mattress, a blanket and something to eat, become the best things in the world if you have nothing. We are having a another flood situation here locally in western Indiana and I have friends in the river vally area, I am going to help them get stuff out on the morning. At least we have a days advance warning to move things out. Some of those folks down under died just trying to out run the flames and were found burned up in wrecked cars or cars that were overtaken by the fire. I am not even going to get in to what should be done with the arsonists. Not my call. Red Cross here did very little to help people last June in the floods here but were taking in huge donations. Oh boy, they gave people a bucket, a mop and a gallon of bleach and $200 and made them jump hoops to get those things. Whoooptie doo! I guess they were supposed to use the mop as a pillow. Salvation Army was wonderful! They really helped a lot of people that really needed it and asked for no hoops to jump. One of my friends even told them what they did was good enough and to let someone else have some of the help they offered him. He knew there was a lot more people who needed it worse than him, even though his house was a total mess, he would make do. It ment a lot to him that they went that extra mile to make sure he could acually have something to sleep on that wasn't soaked in river mud. Is there an organization in Austrailia like the Salvation Army, If so, I want to help!

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit ... [Read Article]
