Who doesn't love monkeys?

As if this video wasn't amusing enough on its own, the Americans interviewed in it are family friends of ours. Enjoy =)

Who we really are...

Dear Friends...regardless of how you voted yesterday. I would appreciate it if you would take the time to read the article linked below that was written by a Republican. For those of you who believe our two party system represents two vastly different segments of society you might want to chat with a few people who voted differently from you and then decide if you really don't share similar values. Whether we like it or not both major parties in the United States tend to be rather centrist. As some college statistics class probably taught you all, deviating too far to the extreme does not align you with very many people (and certainly won't get you elected). Take the time to look back on the early history of our great nation. Our founding fathers rarely agreed, they argued hard and often, but they respected their differences and agreed that the ebb and flow of power being shared amongst all was paramount to our success. We are one nation made great by our diversity...do you agree?
