Cathi L., Dec 19, 2008, 8:19PM ESTI'm glad you enjoyed my Christmas wish!
The Thomas Jefferson that I went to is in Alexandria, Virginia, and I believe it was built in the late 50s or early 60s.
The Science Museum of Virginia! I loved working there although nothing in a creative fashion! I worked in administration and finance. The Science Museum is very interesting, although I was also very much interested in the building itself! Have you been? -

Candace *, Dec 14, 2008, 7:28PM ESTGordon, I appreciate your question and I am sorry to have offended you. I love our country, too, and I am concerned, like so many. It is a recognized sign/symbol of DISTRESS. Until this government starts acting FOR the people and we start to see some positive results, I will continue to use this as my icon.
God Bless -
