"Hi there,

I just took a quick peek at your blog effort and being impressed, felt that I should acknowledge you for your vision of the world as seen from your own words. I am Mike. I am from Sacramento, California, a place that would welcome you if you ever came around.

I originally came from the Central Oregonian desert where the wind howls through the wind shaped juniper trees and the sound is so beautifully melancholy that the oversensitive should not listen. It's a high desert plateau where each season is strong and the temperatures are mighty cold each winter. But the juniper and sage brush and moss on the exposed volcanic rock survive and thrive; the wind and clouds create magic within the powerful weather. But, mainly, the people are good as well as polite; where work is not feared and honor is strong and personal. It is almost an insult to the community to lock your doors or your car because the community standards are so high. Unlike the picture of America that the vile cowards of Hollywood create, the common people of Oregon can be armed and would be dangerous to a criminal, yet would care deeply about the welfare of strangers in trouble or the children of the less fortunate. Not a lot of drama, just good hard work, common decency, true respect for others, love of God and country, and as always, dealing with personal demons that afflict us all.

I am now down in California where political and psychological criminals hold sway, promising to help the needy, but mainly robbing the workers andcreators to pay for their extravagances, and then finally helping somepeople if they will vote for them. The liberal bastards have become the Robin Hood who robs the rich to pay themselves, demanding tribute from those to whom they throw their scraps. But there is a revolution coming in the form of civilized people standing up, stepping up as they call it.

Democracy is not a magic thing that once gotten is always there. Spiritualand moral criminals are always there and will seek to enrich themselves offthe work of others. The power of the people is more complicated than itseems at first. However imperfect Democracy is, it's the best damned thing that there ever was for the people's good. Watch out for the slippery silvery-tongued self-serving bastards displaying golden visions "for the people" or "for the children".

In conclusion, I hear that the culture of Iraq has it that the mosques, like our churches, do a lot of the work of distributing food and goods to thepoor. That is good. Please keep it that way. We have learned here that once the government gets too involved it can become a spiritually criminal organization which aggravates the problem rather than repair or help.

Government workers can never begin to comprehend the spiritual quotient of human life. But I understand no one or no thing is perfect. Well, I do hope this day finds you feeling well and having positive visionsof the future. I am enjoying the sunshine and trying to do some good today.

Write me if you feel like it. Please keep up your writing. It is good!

Sincerely Mike outta Sacramento Ca."
