Before President Obama gave his national address to American school children today from Wakefield High School in Virginia, he met with a group of ninth graders along with Secretary of Education Arne Duncan (above). During the Q&A, one of the students asked the President to name someone, dead or alive, with whom he'd like to have dinner. After thinking for a moment the President answered that he'd like to have dinner with Mahatma Gandhi because Gandhi changed the world "through the power of ethics."

Who might join together and craft a short play or story about this imaginary dinner? :eating:
"Where is the intersection between the world's deep hunger and your deep gladness?"

If not good taste, then at least a 20-year battering by the Political Correctness SS prevents me from asking a question along the lines of, "Who's going to serve dinner when the waiters are eating?".

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.

Let alone making an Amos and Gandhi reference.
