There's an entire subculture in this country that discourages education and encourages irresponsible sexual behavior - leading to countless children in really unspeakable situations. It's heartbreaking to see.
Oh, but one must have a license to fish or give a manicure...
Does anybody really think the federal government even has the capacity to really deal effectively with this country's social problems? They couldn't do it with a million extra bureaucrats and $50 billion dollars. I lost faith in anybody in DC a long time ago.
That said, whoever wins in November and all you senators and congresspeople: I hereby triple-dog dare you to actually fix some difficult problems. Betcha can't do it.

My dad worked on these babies when they were in production. He didn't even what he did until I was more than 30 years old. I thought nobody's dad ever talked about work... heh.
Not long ago, he and I went and saw one sitting on the ground at a museum near St. Pete, FL, at Eglin, and he went up and patted the thing like it was a dog.
On the other hand, I was just speechless. It's a gorgeous, sexy, piece of machinery. It's like a giant black Ferrari. The pilots must have been giggling every time they took off. So, so, many really cool ideas made this thing fly. And it's drop-dead gorgeous to boot.
everywordmeans, this plane only shoots pictures. A ton of things we take for granted in photography sprang out of the work done in labs for the Blackbird. Its actual operational ceiling is still classified, if what I read recently is still correct.
Maneuverability and shooting are for smaller, more nimble aircraft.

Maybe a follow-up link about how to prevent this condition is in order now, for all the now-cringing and shuddering guys who just saw this post.
