I've had this song going through my head quite a bit today.

Hard Work To Do

© 1986 Linda Allen Hard Work To Do Well, people these are hard times 'Bout the hardest I have known And the headlines in the paper sometimes chill me to the bone And we look for easy answers Some new words to see us through But it's a thin disguise when we recognize that there's hard work to do You can believe in Jesus or God on high Believe in me as I believe in you Believe in the light at the end of the tunnel, But there's Hard work to do Hard work to do Hard work to do Put your faith in the future but your hand on the plow Cause there's hard work to do Well, some are gonna tell you They've got the answer to your pain Just sign the dotted line, my friend, and you'll never have to think again But beware of politicians, bible hucksters and gurus Don't give your power away, let your heart lead the way Cause there's hard work to do Chorus Now, we've tried religion (hard work) indecision (hard work) meditation (hard work) anticipation (hard work) politicians (hard work) nuclear fission (hard workP a new lover (hard work) Your dad and your mother (hard work) Chorus

This is a comment I just put on someone's post about his speech today. I wanted to share it with you too:

I liked how he stressed that "this is a nation of christians and muslims, Jews and hindi, and non believers" (that may not be the exact quote, but close enough).
That really stood out to me as different from most of the other presidents(and for sure Bush) a at a time when the line between church and state is getting thinner and thinner.

I liked that, too. Also, did you see the concert Sunday? There was a lot of really good stuff there, but the best was the invocation by the Episcopal bishop who's been so contraversial because he's gay. I think I sent you the link to his speech, because HBO didn't show it.

sigh...evidently I can't spell controversial OR use spellcheck....good thing you're the college student, not me.
