Hi all of you,

I laugh.
And Yes Leon - I still have my legs, they are not gone, not yet that is!

So no racism in USA ?
No differences between being WHITE and BLACK as in 1968, when Martin Luther
King Jr. did
his best to make peace on this Planet ?

Really....?

M. Sufilight with no smiles...but a happy face...
