I wrote a book.

It is " On a Wing and a Prayer".

And in truth, it has to do with doing the right thing, when you think you will lose. And it has to do with learning from things your parents and grandparents had to learn - and tried to teach us, the hard way.

Oh, I know the publisher is going to screw me - I knew it all along - and I don't care. Been screwed by too many to count, at this point.

Shit, if the book does make any money I am going to do what I think is right, anyway. I never cared about that.

But, I know it is important. Some things have to be said. Lessons passed down are paid with such a heavy price.

It is sad to me, some of us did not have such "parents" to teach us such lessons. And yet, so many of you young people are still here - makes me proud. And I know you make them proud.

And I also know, at end of the day, that is exactly why we are going to win this fight.

Anyway, six years later, I published a book. Coming out now.

Joe

There are just too many of us to lose.
