Folks! No, I'm not dead.. I've been pretty busy working on a new book that I'm writing, sorry I haven't been able to update properly. In fact, I've been so busy, I haven't had time to collect my memoirs and post them online...

With that in mind, this week, if this post wasn't bad enough, I've got a sub writing
the rest of this post who will be playing the role of me this week. It's not even
like my writing style, and to add insult to injury, I'm curious if anyone will be able to note what's going on. I'm sorry if it's so redundant, but I didn't write the thing! So without further ado, my post this week is the most weak and insincere one I've written ever. Let's see if anyone can figure out who was ridiculous enough to have the honor of subbing for me this week...

What Do We Consider Important

If religion is not as important to people in New England as it is in other parts of the country, then what do we consider most important?

Honestly, I would need Gallup to produce another poll or reveal more information than what was in the report I mentioned in my last post to really get to the answer. But, since I've lived in Worcester, MA for 85% of my life and... since this city is perfectly situated within a 1 hour drive to all of the major cities in NE except for Portland, ME (2+ hours) - I'm going to make some assumptions and take a guess at what we consider important.

We consider community to be important. You might be saying to yourself, "that's a no brain-er" or "that's true in other regions of the country as well". So, that brings me to the type of questions I would like Gallup to study.

For example,

* "How are you involved your community?"
* "To which organizations do you give your time and money?"
* "How much time in your week do you dedicate to community involvement?"
* "How much money do you give each year to community organizations?"

I believe we would rank very high in a national poll about community involvement. People here are highly ambitious and sometimes involved in several community organizations at once. My next post will discuss some of these organizations.
