All Patriots Please Rise . . .

Once again, we celebrate our Constitution Day. As I mentioned in last year's column, we've come a long way in the last 218 years. During the turmoil of the last few months and years, we have been testing the principles on which our country was founded. It's been a wild ride, and despite the advent of terrorism and natural disasters, we are still strong.

Lately, I've finally gotten back to my roots by getting back into active volunteering. So, it's time for my soapbox. Got some extra time? Try doing some volunteer work. Within the last couple of months, I've been doing some volunteer work at libraries, museums, animal shelters, and children's shelters. The old adage holds true. You do get back a lot more than you give. There's never been a better time and a greater need, so get on out there!

Anyhow, Happy Constitution Day! Let freedom ring, and let the rantings continue! See ya.
