  1. Why Compromise?

    Compromise compromise compromise! The hardest thing to do is compromise, especially when you know you are right. Why should you “give up” being right when you know the other guy is wrong? Compromise can be a difficult thing to accept. I am not sure the video is correctly titled. What starts out as, "it is my dinner not yours" progresses to “I will share my dinner with both of you.” I also agree that the issue of whose meal it is raised lots of concerns in the “local community.” The video moves from a compromising opportunity to a lost opportunity to a sharing break. The frog does not play the roll of neutral party here. The frog is not offering a compromise because in the end he gets a third of the results. The frog now owns the meal and is choosing on his own free will to share. Relating this video to events of today, would you like to start with the war or the Democratic Party?

  2. Lets Keep it Simple

    I have no problem watching something for someone. It is human nature, we all like to help when we can. There are limits, in this case 15 minutes is fair. If I agreed to watch the laptop and it was time for me to leave I would go to the establishment manager and tell them what happened and then leave. It then becomes the obligation of the establishement, regardless of what the employee would like you to think.

  3. You're Next

    After watching this film the following came to mind: First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out-- because I was not a communist; Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out-- because I was not a socialist; Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out-- because I was not a trade unionist; Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- because I was not a Jew; Then they came for me-- and there was no one left to speak out for me. By Martin Niemöller As a member of society we have a responsibility to act. If we do not act, we are next to be acted upon.
