  3. True confession, I love Will Rogers!
    His quote is a great addition to your already great collection.

    And as a fellow writer, may I shamelessly announce the publication of my own homesteading book! (I'm so excited). Please come by my blog to take a look. 🙂

  9. All excellent good advice! The Obamanations should take special notice of the "Never stand begging for that which you have the power to earn." but I know such wisdom is like throwing pearls amoung swine. ~:)
