My humble little town made national news last week in a positive, uplifting way. Watch this video about a local child born without a right hand, my daughter's high school, and a 3D printer:

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2014/12/12/inspiration-nation-watch-toddler-with-new-hand/20280747/

My daughter knows the sister of the child, as well as the students and teacher being interviewed.

Ted, I'm having a hard time seeing the screen.
When you are dead, you don't know you are dead.It is difficult only for others.

It is the same when you are stupid.

That story made the local news here. These kids know what America is about. The school system needs a big Hora for supporing the project with the purchase of the 3-D Printer used to make the hand.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.
