In the five years I have been with the WordPress family I do not recall over four or five negative comments sent to me. The WordPress family is a constant “Feel Good” experience on the internet. WordPress is the reason I feel a daily joy in sharing my published poetry work as well as my commentary postings.

Once upon a time a long, a long time ago (before Black Friday) Thanksgiving was a celebration of harvest and a time to give thanks. Hence the name thanksgiving.
I don’t think the early pilgrims had a Super Walmart, a Sears or a Best Buy yet somehow they managed. Can you imagine having to grow your own food and prepare it without the help of google? When did they have time? Where did they get their Stove Top stuffing and who plucked the turkeys? How did those crazy pilgrims do it?
I didn’t really know any of those pilgrims but I did see a John Wayne movie once. John knew a pilgrim when he saw one. He seemed to know a lot of pilgrims but that was a long time ago too.
I propose we are all pilgrims, each one of us on a journey of sorts. Our own…

A Commentary by John J. Rigo

The following message was sent early this morning to the head of a well known national Resistance Movement in the United States. In sharing this short e-mail with you the reader, it is my hope and prayer that the young people of this country will be able to take up the banner of freedom that so many have fought and died for over almost two centuries. That time has passed for me, a 71 year old man with an aging body, who clings to the few last years he may have:
“What I am grappling with this morning is knowing by entering this arena I will be giving up the lives of both my wife and I. I fear with a sense of shame and forebearing, I lack the courage to do that. It seems to me that evil has truly won in taking our country of freedoms from every last one of us. I truly fear we are now lost without any hope of saving our country.”
