Added to that, his trip through Afghanistan (Wavy Gravy) along the Kyber Pass seeing homes with pictures of Mecca and Kennedy side by side. The tank soldiers that surrounded him in a Gypsy camp and asked, “what do you need?” when he was headed to Bangladesh to deliver aid. They said, “we want to be in your army.”
There really are people who could represent the best of our national spirit on the world stage. Sad really.
And he put together a team of doctors to perform cataract surgery for the poorest of the poor on the Indian sub-continent. He said to people at fund raisers (the price of admission), “There’s people in another part of the world not bumping into stuff because of you.”
Glob, that made me smile.

Wavy Gravy needs the Chuck Norris interwebs treatement.
“Wavy Gravy brought people down off the brown acid, by telling them they weren’t poisoned, they were just high, and that it would wear off. They then became the doctor for the next person in need of help.”

I say make Wavy Gravy our head of state. I just saw “Saint Misbehavin’ again and I was so moved by his “Basic Human Needs” poem.
Wouldn’t it be neat if the people that you meet
had shoes on their feet and something to eat?

You remind me of that giving spirit jp.
Thanks, Lance, but it's tough to project the idea of a giving spirit when I almost constantly have to ask others for help to survive.
Great Wavy Gravy anecdotes and quotes. Thanks a lot for those.
You give of what you have in your writings and your stoicism. It helps make me a little less afraid.
