Bless You , Margie!!! Yesterday I was mad enough I could have walked all the way back to Kansas, hunted Brownback down ,and smacked him upside the head with my crutch, then I finally remembered what my Kansas born Mother taught me, you don't deliberately hurt people with out it coming back to you in spades. My husband said last night, I've been married to you for 32 years and I have never seen you this mad over anything!! That Margie, was one of the understatements of the year!!! I want so badly to do some traveling and meet some of the people I have been corresponding with for years now. I'd like to be able to walk in Heritage Park and have my Dachshund on a leash with me,to be able to spend a day walking through a Mall and window shop, and just once before I die, I'd like to walk through my home town and visit the library where my career was born. just me, Marjorie, who is sick and tired of being sick and tired. 67/58/55 At 05:34 PM 09/21/2000 -0400, you wrote: >Just a word from a Kansan re: what Brownback is trying to accomplish.
