This really hit me hard, Intrepid. Here in Jonesboro/Hodge they like to say at Christmas you see a million lights. It's probably true. The whole town (all the stores downtown and neighboring homes) string every kind of light you can think of.
Then, you drive by the Katrina evacuee center here. You see children in yards with no coats in cold weather. You see children with no shoes. I can't help but think that the money being spent on electricity for the million lights could feed, clothe, home, and take care of so many.
As a matter of fact, I think something needs to be done about that. Thank you for pointing that out, Intrepid. It blessed me today.
