I always thought when so many know the spiritual GO DOWN MOSES, they will also manage to understand (and perhaps support) that so many Africans try to escape from their continent.

I do understand why the hell they would want to get out of their screwed up country
The problem is that they come right here to Spain, and the problem is you have to feed them, house them, give them water, clothes, e.t.c and somebody has to pay for that, meaning the tax payers and right now if in Spain we are at 27% unemployment,which means there is less money that goes into the arcs of the state and more money coming out to take care of these people, so that means more Spanish out of work, since the government will rise taxes which they´ve done don´t know how many times now, and leads to what we are right know as a nation, we are bankrupt.
So it´s going to be quite difficult to take care of these people. Why don´t we first clean our house before letting in the guest.

While in high school, I spent some hard earned money on a banjo (I think it had something to do with a crush on this cute, long haired guy). I never did get the hang of picking, but at graduation, while walking across stage, said cute guy yelled out, “Way to go Banjo Chris!”. I have not thought about that moment until I heard you play, just now, 37 years later. Perhaps, when my work situation is sorted, I should consider the banjo? Your post brought such a smile to my face…
