Anybody catch Doug, (Geezeronline), Jamison's post this week
about
the group of impoverished kids in
Paraguay who are
making
extraordinary music with recycled junk?
I found
my own tears forming when tears welled up in the eyes
of a 15 year
old girl as she spoke about how grateful she was to
her
parents and how much she loved them.
If you
missed it you can watch it here.
Okay. Here's my second question.
Anybody
catch the news that Justin Trudeau is going to pay back
the
charity that paid him $20 000 to be a guest speaker?
The
charity lost money on the deal and it was hurt feelings all
around I
guess.
But I
don't get it.
How is
it that Justin Trudeau would charge a charity $20 000
and
what kind of a
charity would have that kind of money lying
around
earmarked 'guest speakers'?
I guess
$20 000 is small change in the world of celebrity guest
speakers
and large high profile 1st world charities.
Jeesh.
Something
is very, very wrong with our society.
