Warren Buffett American Hero

Warren Buffett is giving 85% of his 42 billion dollars to 5 charitable foundations, most notably the Bill and Melind Gates foundation BMG the reponse on June 25th, 2006 posted on their website:

“We are awed by our friend Warren Buffett’s decision to use his fortune to address the world's most challenging inequities, and we are humbled that he has chosen to direct a large portion of it to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation."

A large portion: Over 30 Billion dollars!!

BMG and now Mr Buffett are helping both internationally and right here at home. Their fight for a better world is centered around philanthropy and good will. Their fight has much a more realistic chance of doing good and developing good will than a fight with guns. Capitalism should walk hand in hand with Philanthropy, Mr Buffet and BMG are doing just that. Thankyou

Ribs are getting better. I still cannot lay down on a bed but hey, a painter from Peabody, just in the past few days, fell from a 22 foot height and was med flighted to the hospital. He's in a lot worse shape than me. Hope he makes it through.

Still haven't a clue as to how to make this place a better gathering spot for some friendly banter and exchange of ideas.

If the aforementioned painter doesn't have any insurance, I wonder if he will be taken care of as well as someone carrying BC/BS?

With all the comittees, sub-comittees, special investigators for Lewinskies, voter fraud, whitewater, healthcare reform, blah blah blah. With the tax dollars used on that shit we probably could have paid the health care bill for everyone in this country. What did we get, well duh! Now we know blow jobs aren't considered to be sex! Thanks Bill, no don't get up our taxes will pay for that enlightenment.
