I was perfectly happy to worry about the mildew on my siding, my son's never-ending college choice (I'll bet anything he chooses the most expensive one so that dad and mom can continue to work until they die), or my deteriorating bike tire changing skills. (Blam!!..... Dang!) Now I can add Guam to my list of woes. You should think about changing your name to Tibor. (Help Hungary!) Well, I learned a lot from this blog not the least of which is that residents of Guam are called Guamites. This sounds rather like a sort of geode or insect. I was sure they were called Guamanians, or Guamers, or Guamerieners (okay, maybe that's what they call Guam dogs.) Well, there you go again, Tim.

This one needs some additional vocational training. (Not that I'm a Tea Party supporter, but even out of the mouths of babes...)

The Marianas Trench is 7-miles deep; deepest sinkhole in the world. Merizo at the southern tip of the island is right on the edge of the Trench. Another 8.2 quake like the one in 1993 can technically tip the island over into the trench, NEVER to be seen again. Tipping over is the least of our fears. The USEPA declared that this Military Buildup will destroy our island's ecosystem. Guam's northern water lenses are contaminated with Toxic Wastes, left over by the BRAC Closures of the 1990s. The Toxic Wastes similar to the one's found at Camp Lejeune. We do not want the Marines on our island. Send them to Hawaii or California. Let the military destroy your own backyard....like Camp Lejeune's. Thank you.
