I mean phone calls and emails from us NOT from them. If we watched our congress people, governors, and legilature more closely, we would not have to "throw the bums out" as frequently. Perhaps more would get done. Perhaps they would know that partisianship is NOT an American virtue.

The resident grumpy gal stirred her coffee as I got my tea and said that people should have voted their morals. So that was fun!!<BR/><BR/>But every time I turn on the R&B stations out of KC, 107.3 and 103.3, there's all this love and happiness pouring out of the speakers, so I've been spending a lot of time over there.<BR/><BR/>I like the public service thing. I'll check that out, and maybe I can figure out a way in which my daughter can help out with that. Yay Obama!!Melinda R.

Our church called for volunteers. Even after all this time, we have folks who meet at the school once or twice a week to read for/with the children or whatever the teacher needs. (I worked in the library.) And the school pulled up their failing 'grade' and is in the clear. Service is happening.<BR/><BR/>Wanda in ALAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074861.post-91413421576375922652008-11-07T08:37:00.000-05:002008-11-07T08:37:00.000-05:00There's an interesting section in the new change.g...There's an interesting section in the new change.gov website about national service. I think it's going to be a big thing in this administration--or I hope so. And (to make it children's lit related) literacy volunteers could be a big part of that. Read aloud to kids once a week? Sure!Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09406720496767981522noreply@blogger.com
