		<description>Oh my gosh, what a wonderful heritage your father gave you! Bless his heart.
My father was a church musician and took his choirs on many tours of the British Isles, where they sang in all types of churches. One year he took dozens of Texas flags that had flown over the state capitol and gave one to each city. So, if you ever saw a Texas flag in England, Scotland or Wales, it&#039;s because of my daddy. :)
I&#039;m putting tea and shortbread on the menu when you and your wife come visit. (actually, when our daughter first went to school as a kindergardener, I wanted to make that first year special, so i had &quot;High Tea&quot; waiting for her everyday when she got home. We&#039;d sit in wingback chairs, sipping Earl Grey, eating scones from a silver tray, and she&#039;d tell me about her day!) Our family has always LOVED England, Scotland and Wales.
What a lucky young man you were and still are. It&#039;s a pleasure to &quot;chat&quot; with you.</description>

		<description>Cindy,
Protecting business and saving jobs is what I do.
Instead of a handouts people should be encouraged to be all they can be and not a slave to the state. 
So thank you for your encouragement! 
I have a strategy for entering politics just like my pal Sarah... 
Not everyone can be like me and that&#039;s why I volunteered for years learning about other folks and their pain and being fortunate for all I have.
I never had the benefit of having any money because of the crash of the 80&#039;s in Texas which is very similar to what is happening in the world today. I&#039;m blessed that I had to pull up my boot straps and make it on my own.
My father would be happy to see that this time I&#039;m in the right place and never will take it for granted.

My father was Unique!
My Dad grew up on the proud bitter cobblestone streets of Pittsburgh.
Watching his father sell vegetables on the corner during the depression  must have been tough enough, except my father&#039;s dad died when he was 15 years old.
My Dad then worked the steel mills and went to school while supporting his mother and sister.
On a scholarship he played for Penn State but broke his wrist during the first season.
My father transferred to a small liberal arts college where he became head of the debate team.
Muskingum college the same college in Ohio where John Glenn drove his car in the lake and later became the first astronaut. My fathers team won several debate tournaments which the school never had up till that point.
After college my father taught Dale Carnegie while selling large pipeline valves.
So successful was he in selling valves that he was given the opportunity to build from scratch the European Division of General Valve Co.
My formative years thus were in England where we assimilated totally and where for seven years I got the classical English education which was still rooted in an era then beginning to disappearing.
My father helped set up the North Sea oil rigs and many of the valves running those platforms he sold. My father also set up most of the middle east.
Never caring about himself and driving the station wagon all those years he spent his money on educating our family and we all owe a lot to my Dad in Heaven.</description>

		<description>P.S. You should be proud of yourself for always thinking outside the box. With your grasp of the real world and sense of true entrepreneurship Hillary could use you at State. Or maybe when Sarah is Prez....she&#039;d love having someone like you in her admin!</description>

		<description>yes, we like Levin, too. My husband is also a constitutional scholar and trial lawyer....before law school was  a Capitol Hill cop in D.C. in the late &#039;60&#039;s, then went into Peace Corps for over 2 years,then back to DC with Fed. Trade Com, then law school. (We met in DC...and were there for Watergate) So you see, he has been around the block! And fortunately we have grown in the same direction politically and spiritually. That&#039;s why we&#039;ve lasted. It&#039;s uncanny how we&#039;ve changed, and embraced the same philosophical views because otherwise we&#039;re so different!</description>

		<description>Cindy,
You have a beautiful and very intelligent family.
I would have enjoyed watching you sing!
Your husband sounds very interesting and I&#039;m sure he has stories about the glorious Texas state legislature.

I really respect great attorneys that understand the constitution and are willing to defend the Judeo-Christian tradition this country was founded and are believers in Natural Law and limited government and are proud of America and believe in American Exceptionalism.

Right now my favorite attorney is  Dr.Mark Levin...</description>

		<description>The point I was making about the bar.

My friend and I were walking down sixth street and saw this gap not being used between two buildings
That space was actually owned by somebody and we were able to track them don and rent for the summer the space.
We just bare bones it with a simple fence and beer garden. A port-a-let in the back and long counters made of plywood to sit at. We hired some friends who had a band and bingo we had a bar for about 1500 bucks.
I just relish on how popular that alley spot was realizing it was just the gap between two buildings. 
At the end of summer we had made a huge amount that we divided up and then we closed down and went back to college.
I&#039;m proud of how I made it during those recession years.
I&#039;m still thinking outside the box even today!</description>

		<description>Seattle--- i didn&#039;t know that about El Capitan....you REALLY should be teaching a course! Another favorite drive is from El Dorado to Iraan and the back roads around Sheffield Tex. Also, we love Mason Texas, I know you&#039;d love the native rocks there, too. Robt. E. Lee was there at the fort. and it&#039;s home of Fred Gipson, who wrote &quot;Ol&#039; Yeller&quot;. It&#039;s a beautiful little town.
Forgot to mention I sang in bars in Austin in the late 70&#039;s, early 80&#039;s, mainly at venues that are no longer there....The Old Alamo Hotel  and Spellman&#039;s.......those were fun days in Austin! Don&#039;t think i sang at your bar. i used a stage name because my hubby was a very  high ranking assistant Attorney General, and I wanted my own ID.</description>

		<description>All politics aside, the danger here is that the onset of either warming or cooling will overtake the ability of species to adapt, including us. Previous cycles of cold and warmth did not occur over decades or centuries but millenia and tens of millenia.</description>

		<description>Cindy,
The Guadalupe Mountains and the face of El Capitan are fascinating.
If you click on the picture you will see white rocks on top of dark.
The Guadalupe are an ancient Coral reef that flourished during the Permian period 300 million years ago.
So if you ever wanted to know what an uplifted coral reef looks like look at El Capitan.
300 million years ago West Texas was a great barrier reef that was active for millions of years until the great extinction which caused it to be buried and fossilized and then uplifted.
 To me the Guadalupe Mountains are like a sentinel standing tall on the western border of Texas.</description>

		<description>Gorgeous pics! Thank you!
 I know you miss Texas....we love Wimberly too. And actually, would love for Texas to cecede!!(Keep Texas Beautiful----Put a Yankee on a Bus!) :) I&#039;m sure we saw your alley bar in Austin at some point in the &#039;80&#039;s. We lived in South Austin for 30 years, but my hubby&#039;s law office has always been downtown Austin. Still is. Our daughter grad from Austin High. She&#039;s a professional flamenco dancer now, so we should all go dancing with her!</description>
