HI, MY NAME IS WALT RYBA BUT MY FRIENDS AND MY WIFE CALL ME WALLY. I'M RETIRED NOW. I WORKED 34 YEARS IN THE MOTION PICTURE BUSINESS. I'VE ALSO BEEN A MUSICIAN FOR THE BETTER PART OF MY ADULT LIFE WHICH IS WHAT I DO NOW BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS BLOG IS ABOUT. THIS BLOG IS ABOUT AMERICA. WHERE IT'S BEEN AND WHERE I THINK IT MIGHT BE HEADED. IT MIGHT GET A LITTLE EDGY AT TIMES AND I MIGHT NOT ALWAYS AGREE WITH YOUR WAY OF THINKING, AND YOU'RE NOT ALWAYS GOING TO AGREE WITH MINE BUT I WILL DEFEND YOUR RIGHT TO THINK IT AND SAY IT BECAUSE THIS IS AMERICA. WALLY'S AMERICA
