sad days

Dave Thomas was one of a kind. Raised an orphan, he was groomed and taught his trade by Harland Sanders. Never forgetting his beginnings, he always worked hard towards helping other orphans. Quite possibly one of the hardest working men in my industry. He never quit giving back, and neither did the company he left behind. Now, with the merger, those works are likely to end. The world we live in now, just doesn't allow for success, and compassion to merge; at least not as easily as two cooperate giants can. The big American Cooperate Machine sometimes seems like a gigantic "Pac-Man" monster. Gobbling up the almighty dollar, and when it stumbles upon something great like the philanthropic works of a great man like Dave Thomas, it's as if the BIG MAChine has eaten a power dot, or whatever they were called in the Pacman game. Causes a person to question whether or not this once great nation allows, or even has room for someone to come along work towards being successful, and still show compassion to the human race. . . just a thought, not a sermon. . .
