I've been watching the news about the oil spill along the Gulf Coast. It's incredibly depressing. When I was a kid, my mom and I, along with my Grandma and Grandpa, went for a drive down to the coast on one of our visits to Louisiana. We went to Avery Island, home of the world famous Tobasco Sauce, and along the way stopped for a walk on the beach. I splashed around in the shallow water for a while, my shorts pulled up as high as I could get them, and on the walk balk to the car noticed my feet were covered in tar. A lot of newspaper went down on the floor of the passenger side of the car before I got back in.

We sure can make a mess of things sometimes.

I know, it is a huge bummer...do you like pepperoni rolls? My world famous ones?

It is amazing, isn't it? My favorite was how the news last night blamed mother nature for making it worse. That way of thinking is a little twisted!
