Wide Awake Giveaway
I am having my first prize giveaway. What do you have to do? Submit a quote in the comments. It can be any quote, such as a line from your favorite comedy, a historical quote, a passage from a book, or something a friend or family member said. What do you get? A (slightly used) copy of Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance. The book was written by Barack Obama before he was a politician. Obama wrote the book after he was elected the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review, and it was first published in 1995. Next week I will randomly select one winner. If I don't know you, please leave your email address with the comment.

Two of my recent favorites:
1. "Contest is still open...if anyone cares." - N.H.Stewart.
2. "I've never seen a couple that looked like they blonged so perfectly together" - A.B.Scott referring to a 2008 photo of A.B.Scott and V.Sturm
Here's another - from a recent Obama speech on Patriotism.
Obama quotes Mark Twain: "Patriotism is defending your country all the time and your government when it deserves it."
Indeed.
"Our country will deserve some props when Obama is elected president." I said that.

I know it is late but,
"I am a bear of very little brain. And long words bother me."
That was either Winnie the Pooh, or George W. Bush. Not sure which.
