Columbus Day

Today is Columbus Day. The day, in 1492,  that Christopher Columbus discovered America. Actually, he was lost when he arrived here. In 2011, we are still in America and we are still lost. This country has no idea where it is going. Protesters on Wall Street, are heading into their third week. I agree with them, but do not know what they think they will change. They are costing the city millions of dollars in police overtime. If they are protesting wild government spending, why are they making the government spend wildly? It seems to me, to be more like a Woodstock atmosphere. A group endeavor that will become a documentary and possibly a Hollywood movie. Who will play the lead activist? Maybe Charlie Sheen. He has a lot of spare time, lately. Five hundred and nineteen years later, we still have not really discovered America.
