Dottie Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Five thousand years ago, Moses said: "Pack your camel, pick up your shovel, mount your [donkey] and I shall take you to the promised land." Five thousand years later, F. D. R. said: "Lay down your shovel, sit on your [donkey] and light up a Camel, this IS the promised land." Today, [someone] will tax your shovel, sell your camel, kick your [donkey], and tell you there is NO promised land.
