We mutually pledge to each other
our lives, our fortunes
and our sacred honor. . .

Wouldn't it be nice if this was true?
If we pledged ourselves to eachother?
If we invested our time, talents and treasure?
If we recognized that honor transcends individuals?

Do you know where these words come from?

The Declaration of Independence.

If you missed tonight's HBO presentation of John Adams, SEE IT. If you don't get cable or HBO, find someone who does - episodes 1 & 2 are going to be run "on demand" all week.

See it before you vote again.

Nice little sketch. I love the composition with the freshly fallen snow. The trees on the left especially nice.

Oh, mARTa-- I should have confessed... the "little sketch" is courtesy of one of the HBO reviews and is a still photo from the program! But wow, thanks for the confidence!! ALL of the program had tender accuracy and artistic sensibility.
