We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
That photo reminds me of the opening scene of "The Green Pastures" in which the kids are studying the Bible in their classroom. Could not find a clip of that particular scene, but the one linked provides a glimpse of the movie.
One of my favorite movies of all time. A must see!
