First Post of 2010

Well, it has been a while, hasn't it? In January, I always like to review events and experiences of the previous year, and I will be getting to that, but first...my heart goes out to the people of Haiti. Haiti has had a very interesting history and has certainly gotten the short end of the stick in the past. During the early days of the United States, while there was still slavery in this country, Haiti was a stronghold of freedom for African-Americans and established a democratic government long before other nations in the New World.

Let's hope the quick action of incoming rescue teams will result in many saved lives. We should all say a prayer today for the people of Haiti.
