When I was young I used to spend some time each summer with my grandparent’s on their farm at Elm Creek, Nebraska. It was quite a change from my life in southern California. One of the things I could do on the farm that I should not do at home was make sling shots. All you needed was an old inner-tube, of which there were plenty around the farm, a piece of leather, some string, maybe some wire, but string would work, and a good crotch from a tree. Even today when I spot a branch that has a perfect Y in it, I kinda go back to being a boy.

“For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim. I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn’t end.” — Michelle Obama
Even with the vaccine, we continue to keep all of our teachers, school officials, and students, EMT's and first responders, hospital doctors and nurses, supermarket clerks, restaurant workers laid off or furloughed and waiting for unemployment, all those who are currently unemployed, human service organizations who still are open to serve those poor/homeless/hungry, funeral home workers, churches, airline employees, hotel employees, gas station and convenience store workers.
