Thank you for joining me for the launch of this blog. As I pondered over what to say to kick things off I thought about the many things I could opine about when it comes to immigration — how dysfunctional the system has become, how the states are running amuck with their own immigration measures, how a one page form called the Form I-9 can be so complicated, and so on. But these are really weighty issues which I’ll address in the coming months and for a welcome posting I thought I’d keep it short and sweet and leave you with this thought for all you cat and dog owners — as Puss said in Puss in Boots to the outlaw Jill as she was about to unceremoniously throw him over the cliff: “Is it true a cat always lands on its feet?” To which Puss responds, “No, that is just a rumor spread by dogs!” Food for thought next time your cat falls off the kitchen countertop.
