For those who have never been to a Muslim country let me help explain a couple things. They do not think exactly the way we do here, or any 1st world county. One of their favorite saying is "If God wills it" "Allah Asaliam"(sp). Basically this means that they will survive if god wills it. Having shared the road in these countries for 2 years with this mentality and seeing dozens of deaths because of it you wonder how they survive at all. In some countries if you witness an accident you cannot render aid to somebody that is injured for an hour as that is gods time. In that hour you can only watch and wait to see if they live, according to them it is god's will if they die. After an hour if they are still alive you can render aid as it is gods will for them to live. I have also seen entire multigenerational families out harvesting 10+ acres of wheat with corn knives making shucks and stacking and hand threshing it. The majority of people in this country have no idea how easy or good they have it. Even the poor in 1st world countries tend to live much better than the average citizen of a 3rd world country. They are severely under educated and to us seem like children that have little or no self restraint. It is a totally different world. One where someone is supposed to be your ally will shoot you because of a perceived slight or disrespect. One of the reasons so many of our soldiers have been shot by our supposed "friends" that we are training. I have seen villagers' stone someone because of it. The world is a large and crazy place. I am glad I am back home and have no intention of ever leaving again.

Today's Featured Article - Chores - by Frank Young. The ceaseless passing of time! It is at once our friend and our enemy. It measures our progress and it makes us old. Like most features of our life, few things are all good or all bad, and most such judgments depend on our own perspective or viewpoint. In our particular hobby, we enjoy the nostalgic return to the days of our youth as we recreate many of the scenes that took place on the family farm that served as the stage for the first few acts of the play that is our live ...
