Great message...In my case when the power of love overcomes the power of eating, the world would see me slim and nice.

@arthurchappell I have no problem with it either but there were some strange children's names that came out of that era. I know of two brothers whose surname is Joy. Their first names are Dixie and Sunshine. Normally calling someone 'Sunshine' would get you a black eye.

@just4him - I agree that the message is very timely. I wish Mr. Trump believed it. Trump's followers now believe they can be blatant racists. Kids have been filmed walking through schools yelling "white power" and "go home" and "build the wall," while minority children are sitting nearby, crying. It is horrible. Some white people keep telling everyone to "relax, everything will be fine" or "get over it." However, the sight of those children just breaks my heart. When Trump was asked if he regrets the racist tone he took, he said, "No. I won." Disgusting. When people ask why we are still upset three days after the election ... that is why.

The next little town along that road is Mumballup then Noggerup. Mumballup has a bumper sticker saying 'Where the hell is Mumballup? Halfway between Yabberup and Noggerup'. I wouldn't mind living at Mumballup just so I could have the sticker. And yes, very Australian and in a good way. :)

There is another one - 'power corrupts but absolute power corrupts absolutely'. Certainly power can go to a person's head if there are no controls placed on them.
