Pres. Bush on passing away of Pres. Ford

President Bush said today, about the passing of Pres. Ford: " with his quiet integrity, common sense and quiet instincts, President Ford helped heal our land and restore public confidence in the presidency". We need someone with President Ford's features to be elected the next president of the USA!

The Executioner

The executioner that couldn't execute a person in the death row.....the needle of the fatal injection went through the vein and the chemical (poison?) went to the flesh, not to the vein. This didn't happen in a underdeveloped world, country in the middle of nowhere.....this happened right here, in Florida. Shouldn't the executioner be executed? At least fired! Isn't that a mixture of incompetence and not caring for a human being ....no matter that he was a criminal. Isn't that comparable to torture .... a person gets a fatal injection and needs 34 minutes to die! Good that governor Jeb Bush suspended all executions .... but what happened with the incompetent executioner?

American Citizen

Last week I became an American citizen......does it make me an American? I am fortunate to assemble different cultures from my origins (Germany/Austria), from my country of birth and where I grew up (Brazil) and from living in the USA (New York) for almost 20 years ..... I hope to be smart enough to pick the best of each.

My thoughts about global warming.

Last week, mid November, walking on the street in NY, temperature 62F .....I am starting to like this global warming thing.....
