On Saturday, 30 January 2010 Hillsdale College is sponsoring an on-line townhall:
...the Title is "Reviving the Constitution"
...website to register [ on0line only ] www.constitutiontownhall.com
...hours of program: 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
...download of agenda to print / save
...MUST pre-register at the .com above
...program will be archived for later on-demand viewing
...must return to website to log-in or on-demand archived program

Isn't celebrating the principles of the Constitution of America much more profound than:
...cleaning the bathrooms
...doing shopping
...going to the office [ well, maybe NOT this one--you can archive it ]
...washing everything that needs washing
...baking [move your computer to the kitchen & multi-task ]
Plan your time accordingly remembering that the program is being archived for later, private viewing in calmer moments of your time. Just be SURE to register on-line.
Hillsdale College--a small Michigan College located in Hillsdale, MI is a co-educational liberal arts college; has remained private, non-sectarian since it's 1844 founding. It presently has a student enrollment of about 1200.
[there is another Hillsdale college in Moore, Oklahoma that is a free Will Baptist College]
If you are an educator of High School or early college classes covering the Constitution, here is an opportunity for you to participate [all speakers will invite comments and questions from the in-house and on-line citizens around the country. OR--if you utilize extra credit items then open the opportunity to your students, download the agenda, assign a Session based on your lesson plans.
Just a thought!
Just announced: WJR [ Detroit Michigan Radio Station] and MSU [Michigan state University] have signed the contract for MSU sports until 2020.
Ellen Creager the Free Press Travel Writer has a very funny article on:
" Bold ideas for increasing Michigan tourism" / www.freep.com Sunday 17 Jan. / pg 9J
some suggestions already in play:
...Turn the loser Peninsula north of the 45th parallel into a giant NASCAR racetrack.
...sell the beaches of southwest Michigan to Chicago. Chicagoans own most of the property already.
...Bribe J.K. Rowling to write a new "Harry Potter" book set in Flint.
...Ban cars. Put Mackinac Island, Frankenmuth and Greenfield Village in charge of absolutely everything
new slogan " Pure 19th Century Michigan".
...sell the Upper Peninsula to Wisconsin and use the proceeds to upgrade every hotel and resort in the
Lower Peninsula.
...Be the only state to create a monarchy. Put up castles around the state and open them to the public.
Sell tickets to get a glimpse of the Michigan royal family waving from the royal deer hunt in Petoskey.
...Move everyone out, leave one light on and a caretaker, and return Michigan to the animals and birds.
Make the entire state a park. Leave a sign on Detroit: "This Used To Be the Motor City.
Now a Coyote Refuge"
Ellen is looking for suggestions. Send them to travel@freepress.com
Have fun! Be Nice! Watch your wording!
