Sad indeed.

Sounds like the junk yards in South Phoenix, except that no one lives in them or sticks around at night, except the dogs! The words of this old song are going through my head right now.

DON'T FENCE ME IN

(Cole Porter)

Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in

Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in

Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise

I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in

I enjoyed "Don't Fence Me In" when it came out in the mid 40s and thanks for the memories.

From today's Salt Lake Tribune:

".....Watch for Bush to enact another amnesty program if re-elected. When that happens, Utah's Latino population, projected to be 20 percent of our residents by 2010, easily could become 30 percent."

Hey Madfly you got the link to the thread awhile back where "aliens" were responsible for a 324 million dollar surplus in "social security". I think I need it to check out foxnews story. I have already written SSA and asked for a "breakdown" on that surplus. I personally have known at least several people( making a decent amount.) that have died in thier 50's and 60's and never used SS. I want to know how many "others" were like them.

Thanks much for reporting the REAL NEWS on what's happening at our southern borders. The whole border region should be considered a National Disaster Area. Where is the Press on this?
