Welcome back to the website.

Got some really cool stuff goin' on around here these days.

AND... I'm workin' on an idea for the next very cool idea, very cool event, very cool project... very cool possibility.

(Yes! You guys already know, I'm a possibility-junkie".)

I'LL BE ABLE TO TELL YOU MORE ABOUT THAT IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS, I HOPE.

Today, I'm going through the comments that many of you have been sending into the website in response to yesterday's update about religion and the "news" media.. (Kind of an interesting undertaking, since it seems that my audience are all pretty thoughtful, reasonable people. That's good news for me!)

THANKS to all of you who have been sending thoughts and comments. I'm posting a few of your comments today, and I'll post a few more tomorrow after today's update as well.

Let's start out today with a beautiful written, intensely portrayed scene from the 1960 classic film "Inherit the Wind".

And then.... here. Here's my original song to download for free again.

THE RELIGION SONG

And once again...

I just wanna say thanks again for another typically amazing year in 2009. (But, THIS lap around the Sun is gonna be even more amazing... I can quietly feel it deep inside.)

Here are just a few of YOUR thoughts and comments:
(Like I said, I was really gratified by all the feedback. If there are any
negative comments, as you know, I always post them as well. There simply
weren't this time around.)

That was weird, Hume made me very uncomfortable!

Well, You say it so very well ! And I can't say it any better ! There should be more David Ippolito's in this world !!! You're like a refreshing, clear thinking/speaker/messenger...I totally agree w/you. What do we call Brit Hume's way ??? Ignorance ! Thanks David and PEACE

You make more and more sense, David. You know, I saw that clip too and I'll have to admit, at first, I didn't make the connection. I thought journalists, were supposed to remain objective and not express an opinion (or endorse anything), one way or the other (on air). If Hume had suggested Woods "turn to" Islam, it wouldn't even be an issue - Fox News would fire him before he even finished the sentence, claiming he was trying to recruit terrorists. Hume clearly was not objective and I believe, along with being fired, should no longer be allowed to call himself a journalist.
