Grahare Fan Club

The members of the Grahare fan club would like to hang his picture in the halls of the White House. That is why we have lauched this blog to draft him for the presidency! We are posting his countless letters as a way to reach voters across the country. Soon Americans in every polling box will be enlightened to Marcus' pragmatic beliefs!

Avoiding Chinese products not easy

Walter Jackson has a good idea regarding the purchase of Chinese products. He said: "Do your best to pass on it. How hard can that be?"

Well, Mr. J, the answer is blowing in the wind. Before the Fourth of July, (an obviously holy, wholly, USA celebration), I went to a local hobby chain store.

Lots and lots of red, white and blue; nutcracker Uncle Sams; bunting, flags, paper plates and picnic stuff, all patriotic items to celebrate a very important historical fact, and an enduring philosophy. Can you say "Made in China"?

Recently I went to a chain department store trying to score a bull's eye of a purchase for a wedding shower gift. In the kitchen department, I did find one item from Taiwan. Care to guess what continent the rest came from?
