I listened patiently and with some interest to the questions, answers and discussions of three people. Since I guessed that my turn would be coming soon, I wrote down my question and a couple of follow-up questions on the only writing surface at hand - the file folder holding the original papers for our study of Chapter 15 concepts. I was ready!<br /><br />My question you ask? Oh, I was going to ask Congressman Lewis why Congress was spending so much time and energy trying to deal with the "drugs in sports" issue while citizens are loosing their homes, their jobs, and their dreams as this nation slips into a recession. I was soooooo ready to nail him if he tried to skirt the question with platitudes or somehow justify the time, money and energy spent on something the judicial system should handle. I was soooooooooooo ready . . . .<br /><br />And then the battery on my phone went DEAD!<br /><br />GRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4540732240449688361-3342959418942875346?l=korteushistory.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mrs. Kortehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01587679544666783330noreply@blogger.com0
