He hooted at everyone and got all worked up when someone got angry when he tried to cut in (he's a bus after all!). He drove too fast around hairpin bends and braked too hard and generally made us glad to be off bus at end of trip. The next day we got onto another bus (filled with trepidation, I might add) and were greeted by a huge grin from bus driver. She seemed to know all other bus and truck drivers on island and waved to them all. When she went around a particularly tight bend on mountain pass, she would hoot ahead to warn other motorists and when we rounded bend, other big vehicle drivers would actually have stopped all traffic to let her through! She'd thank them with a big wave and a grin and they'd grin right back. Needless to say, we had an absolute ball on that trip!

"The trouble with future is--it isn't what it used to be" Paul Valery (1871-1945) writes these words. I first hear them from NSA member Robert Mayer Evans in 1984. He repeats this piercing quote several times during his general session speech at my first NSA Convention. I cannot forget them. They sear my heart. On September 11 2001 your future changes forever. Your future twists into a new and undesired shape. There is fear in hearts of your clients and customers. How secure is their future now. And future of their children. This persists into indefinite future. If you are in United States of America, as about 75% of my readers are, you know you're not protected by Atlantic and Pacific oceans any more. Not now. Not ever again. You know that perverted and malicious villains, our mortal enemies who gleefully shatter our innocence and destroy lives and futures, are among us now. They do not share our values and principles. They are jealous of our freedoms. They would destroy Western culture as we know and cherish it. The targeted symbols in USA are just start of their inhumane, cruel, and vicious intentions. The curtain is rising on this very bad play. The overture is playing. There are several acts to follow. Treachery and much flowing blood, mostly ours, wait in wings.
