PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Read this and make a copy for your files in case you need to refer to it someday. Maybe we should all take some of his advice! A corporate attorney sent the following out to the employees in his company.

1. Do not sign the back of your credit cards. Instead, put 'PHOTO ID REQUIRED.'

2. When you are writing checks to pay on your credit card accounts, DO NOT put the complete account number on the 'For' line. Instead, just put the last four numbers. The credit card company knows the rest of the number, and anyone who might be handling your check as it passes through all the check processing channels won't have access to it.

3. Put your work phone on your checks! Instead of your home phone. If you have a PO Box, use that instead of your home address. If you do not have a PO Box, use your work address. Never have your SS! # printed on your checks. (DUH!) You can add it if it is necessary. But if you have it printed, anyone can get it.

4. Place the contents of your wallet on a photocopy machine. Do both sides of each license, credit card, etc. You will know what you had in your wallet and all of the account numbers and phone numbers to call and cancel. Keep the photocopy in a safe place. I also carry a photocopy of my passport when I travel either here or abroad. We've all heard horror stories about fraud that's committed on us in stealing a name, address, Social Security number, credit cards.

Unfortunately, I, an attorney, have firsthand knowledge because my wallet was stolen last month. Within a week, the thieve(s) ordered an expensive monthly cell phone package, applied for a VISA credit card, had a credit line approved to buy a Gateway computer, received a PIN number from DMV to change my driving record information online, and more. But here's some critical information to limit the damage in case this happens to you or someone you know:

5. We have been told we should cancel our credit cards immediately. But the key is having the toll free numbers and your card numbers handy so you know whom to call. Keep those where you can find them.

6. File a police report immediately in the jurisdiction where your credit cards, etc., were stolen. This proves to credit providers you were diligent, and this is a first step toward an investigation (if there ever is one).

But here's what is perhaps most important of all: (I never even thought to do this.)

7. Call the 3 national credit reporting organizations immediately to place a fraud alert on your name and also call the Social Security fraud line number. I had never heard of doing that until advised by a bank that called to tell me an application for credit was made over the Internet in my name. The alert means any company that checks your credit knows your information was stolen, and they have to contact you by phone to authorize new credit.

By the time I was advised to do this, almost two weeks after the theft, all the damage had been done. There are records of all the credit checks initiated by the thieves' purchase, none of which I knew about before placing the alert. Since then, no additional damage has been done, and the thieves threw my wallet away this weekend (someone turned it in). It seems to have stopped them dead in their tracks.

Now, here are the numbers you always need to contact about your wallet, etc., that has been stolen:

1.) Equifax: 1-800-525-6285

2.) Experian (formerly TRW): 1-888-397-3742

3.) Trans Union : 1-800-680-7289

4.) Social Security Administration (fraud line): 1-800-269-0271

We pass along jokes on the Internet; we pass along just about everything.

If you are willing to pass this information along, it could really help someone that you care about.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ ALL OF THIS

EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ ALL OF THIS and HAVE CHILDREN READ IT TOO!

After tossing her books on the sofa, she decided to grab a snack and get on-line. She logged on under her screen name ByAngel213. She checked her Buddy List and saw GoTo123 was on. She sent him an instant message:

ByAngel213:
Hi. I'm glad you are on! I thought someone was following me home today. It was really weird!

GoTo123:
LOL You watch too much TV. Why would someone be following you?
Don't you live in a safe neighborhood?

ByAngel213:
Of course I do. LOL I guess it was my imagination cuz' I didn't see anybody when I looked out.

GoTo123:
Unless you gave your name out on-line. You haven't done that have you?

ByAngel213:
Of course not. I'm not stupid you know.

GoTo123:
Did you have a softball game after school today?

ByAngel213:
Yes and we won!!

GoTo123:
That's great! Who did you play?

ByAngel213:
We played the Hornets. LOL. Their uniforms are so gross! They look like bees. LOL

GoTo123:
What is your team called?

ByAngel213:
We are the Canton Cats. We have tiger paws on our uniforms They are really cool.

GoTo1 23:
Did you pitch?

ByAngel213:
No I play second base. I got to go. My homework has to be done before my parents get home. I don't want them mad at me. Bye!

GoTo123:
Catch you later. Bye

Meanwhile.......GoTo123 went to the member menu and began to search for her profile. When it came up, he highlighted it and printed it out. He took out a pen and began to write down what he knew about Angel so far.

Her name: Shannon
Birthday: Jan. 3, 1985
Age: 13
State where she lived: North Carolina

Hobbies: softball, chorus, skating and going to the mall. Besides this information, he knew she lived in Canton because she had just told him. He knew she stayed by herself until 6:30 p.m. every afternoon until her parents came home from work. He knew she played softball on Thursday afternoons on the school team, and the team was named the Canton Cats. Her favorite number 7 was printed on her jersey. He knew she was in the eighth grade at the Canton Junior High School . She had told him all this in the conversations they had on- line. He had enough information to find her now.

Shannon didn't tell her parents about the incident on the way home from the ballpark that day. She didn't want them to make a scene and stop her from walking home from the softball games. Parents were always overreacti ng and hers were the worst. It made her wish she was not an only child. Maybe if she had brothers and sisters, her parents wouldn't be so overprotective.

By Thursday, Shannon had forgotten about the footsteps following her.

Her game was in full swing when suddenly she felt someone staring at her. It was then that the memory came back. She glanced up from her second base position to see a man watching her closely.

He was leaning against the fence behind first base and he smiled when she looked at him. He didn't look scary and she quickly dismissed the sudden fear she had felt.

After the game, he sat on a bleacher while she talked to the coach. She noticed his smile once again as she walked past him. He nodded and she smiled back. He noticed her name on the back of her shirt. He knew he had found her.

Quietly, he walked a safe distance behind her. It was only a few blocks to Shannon 's home, and once he saw where she lived he quickly returned to the park to get his car.

Now he had to wait. He decided to get a bite to eat until the time came to go to Shannon 's house. He drove to a fast food restaurant and sat there until time to make his move.

Shannon was in her room later that evening when she heard voices in the living room.

"Shannon, come here," her father called. He sounded upset and she couldn't imagine why. She went into the room to see the man from the ballpark sitting on the sofa.

"Sit down," her father began, "this man has just told us a most interesting story about you."

Shannon sat back. How could he tell her parents anything? She had never seen him before today!

"Do you know who I am, Shannon ?" the man asked.

"No," Shannon answered.

"I am a police officer and your online friend, GoTo123."

Shannon was stunned. "That's impossible! GoTo is a kid my age! He's 14. And he lives in Michigan !"

The man smiled. "I know I told you all that, but it wasn't true. You see, Shannon , there are people on-line who pretend to be kids; I was one of them. But while others do it to injure kids and hurt them, I belong to a group of parents who do it to protect kids from predators. I came here to find you to teach you how dangerous it is to talk to people on-line. You told me enough about yourself to make it easy for me to find you. You named the school you went to, the name of your ball team and the position you played. The number and name on your jersey just made finding you a breeze."

Shannon was stunned. "You mean you don't live in Michigan ?"

He laughed. "No, I live in Raleigh . It made you feel safe to think I was so far away, didn't it?"

She nodded.

"I had a friend whose daughter was like you. Only she wasn't as lucky. The guy found her and murdered her while she was home alone. Kids are taught not to tell anyone when they are alone, yet they do it all the time on-line. The wrong people trick you into giving out information a little here and there on-line. Before you know it, you have told them enough for them to find you without even realizing you have done it. I hope you've learned a lesson from this and won't do it again. Tell others about this so they will be safe too?"

"It's a promise!"

That night Shannon and her Dad and Mom all knelt down together and thanked God for protecting Shannon from what could have been a tragic situation.

Please take the time & view the video.

It has been written about, boasted about, plotted, schemed and
executed for years.

It is incontrovertible.

Yet maybe this is the first time you have heard of it.

It will not be reported on corporate media until it is in place.
It will appear to have just come about "naturally", due to
unforeseen events. It is quite intricate and thorough, and is no
accident. It is the very definition of "conspiracy",
but......that's right.....forgot there are "no conspiracies".

The media tells us that.

All of the "top tier" establishment candidates for president of the
United States are well aware of where this is going. (So is Ron
Paul, but he prefers the original plan for this country and mankind).
Clinton, Obama, Giuliani, Romney, Biden, Edwards, and the rest know
of this plan, and are even members of the organization, the CFR, that
has implemented it. Only candidate Ron Paul has addressed this
issue. Not even Kucinich, who is at best, just naive.

INSPIRATIONAL

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you,
Jesus Christ and the American G. I.
One died for your soul;
the other for your freedom.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO PASS THIS ON
AS MANY SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN BOTH OF THEM!

THE BEST RETIREMENT OPTION!!!

Bank Robber's Wish to Go to Prison Granted
He Says Jail Time Would Tide Him Over Until Retirement
COLUMBUS, Ohio (Oct. 13) - A man who couldn't find steady work came up with a plan to make it through the next few years until he could collect Social Security: He robbed a bank, then handed the money to a guard and waited for police.
On Wednesday, Timothy J. Bowers told a judge a three-year prison sentence would suit him, and the judge obliged.

"At my age, the jobs available to me are minimum-wage jobs. There is age discrimination out there," Bowers, who turns 63 in a few weeks,
told Judge Angela White.
The judge told him: "It's unfortunate you feel this is the only way
to deal with the situation."
Bowers said he had been able to find only odd jobs after the drug
wholesaler he made deliveries for closed in 2003. He walked to a bank and handed a teller a note demanding cash in an envelope. The teller gave him four $20 bills and pushed a silent alarm.
Bowers handed the money to a security guard standing in the lobby and told him it was his day to be a hero.

He pleaded guilty to robbery, and a court-ordered psychological exam found him competent.
"It's a pretty sad story when someone feels that's their only alternative, " said defense attorney Jeremy W. Dodgion, who described Bowers as "a charming old man."
Prosecutors had considered arguing against putting Bowers in prison at taxpayer expense, but they worried he would do something more reckless to be put behind bars.
"It's not the financial plan I would choose, but it's a financial plan," prosecutor Dan Cable said.


"Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.."

COLD, FUR AND COMMON SENSE.

My husband and I had been happily
married (most of the time)
for five years
but hadn't been blessed with a baby.

I decided to do some serious
praying and promised God
that if he would give us a child,
I would be a perfect mother,
love it with all my heart
and raise it with His word
as my guide.

God answered my prayers
and blessed us with a son.

The next year God blessed us
with another son.

The following year,
He blessed us with
yet another son.

The year after that we
were blessed with a daughter.

My husband thought we'd
been blessed right into poverty.
We now had four children,
and the oldest was only
four years old.

I learned never to ask God
for anything unless I meant it.
As a minister once told me,
'If you pray for rain,
make sure you carry an umbrella.'

I began reading a few verses
of the Bible to the children
each day as they lay in their cribs.

I was off to a good start.
God had entrusted me
with four children and
I didn't want to disappoint Him.

I tried to be patient the day
the children smashed
two dozen eggs on
the kitchen floor searching
for baby chicks.

I tried to be understanding...

when they started a hotel for
homeless frogs in the spare bedroom, although it took me nearly two hours
to catch all twenty-three frogs.

When my daughter poured
ketchup all over herself and
rolled up in a blanket to see
how it felt to be a hot dog,
I tried to see the humor
rather than the mess.

In spite of changing over
twenty-five thousand diapers,
never eating a hot meal
and never sleeping for more
than thirty minutes at a time,
I still thank God daily for my children.

While I couldn't keep my promise
to be a perfect mother -
I didn't even come close...
I did keep my promise
to raise them in the Word of God.

I knew I was missing the mark
just a little when I told
my daughter we were going
to church to worship God,
and she wanted to bring
a bar of soap along to
'wash up' Jesus, too.

Something was lost
in the translation when
I explained that
God gave us everlasting life,
and my son thought it was
generous of God to give
us his 'last wife.'

My proudest moment came
during the children's
Christmas pageant.

My daughter was playing Mary,
two of my sons were shepherds
and my youngest son was a wise man.
This was their moment to shine.

My five-year-old shepherd
had practiced his line,
'We found the babe wrapped
in swaddling clothes.'

But he was nervous and said,
'The baby was wrapped
in wrinkled clothes.'

My four-year-old 'Mary' said,
'That's not 'wrinkled clothes,' silly.
That's dirty, rotten clothes.'

A wrestling match broke out
between Mary and the shepherd
and was stopped by an angel,
who bent her halo and lost
her left wing.

I slouched a little lower
in my seat when Mary
dropped the doll representing
Baby Jesus, and it bounced
down the aisle crying,
'Mama-mama.'

Mary grabbed the doll,
wrapped it back up
and held it tightly as
the wise men arrived.

My other son stepped forward
wearing a bathrobe
and a paper crown,
knelt at the manger
and announced,
'We are the three wise men,
and we are bringing gifts
of gold,
common sense
and fur.'

The congregation
dissolved into laughter,
and the pageant
got a standing ovation.

'I've never enjoyed a Christmas
program as much as this one,'
laughed the pastor,
wiping tears from his eyes.

'For the rest of my life,
I'll never hear the
Christmas story without
thinking of
gold,
common sense
and fur.'

'My children are my pride
and my joy and my greatest
blessing,' I said as I dug
through my purse for an aspirin.

Jesus had no servants,
yet they called Him Master.

Had no degree,
yet they called Him Teacher.

Had no medicines,
yet they called Him Healer.

Had no army,
yet kings feared Him.

He won no military battles,
yet He conquered the world.

He committed no crime,
yet they crucified Him.

He was buried in a tomb,
yet He lives today.

Feel honored
to serve such a Leader
who loves us.

If you believe in
God and in Jesus Christ His Son,
send this to all on your buddy list.

The KKK Disbands: Leaves Their Job To Black Folks

The KKK leader stepped to the podium, his hood lowered around his
shoulders and a look of disgust on his face. He said, "Sorry guys but
this will be our last meeting; we're going out of business."

A member stood up in back. "But why sir?" The leader sighed, "Well, reverend, the Blacks are doing a better job getting rid of themselves than we ever did, so we are no longer needed."

There were rumblings and protest. The leader raised his hand to silence the Klan members, and said, "Their rap music says more vile things about Black women than we ever thought of." The members grudgingly nodded in approval. The Imperial Dragon continued: "And their women write books and make songs that demean black men better than my two speech writers ever could, looking down at two men seated in front who lowered their heads. "They shoot each other constantly ", he continued;" And as a group, they spend a huge amounts of money on cars, liquor, that stuff they call bling, bling, and the proliferation of rap music -- as they talk about all that in their magazines -- and nobody needs us to talk about how a lot of their sorry butts keep playing the race and victim cards while complaining that other groups are surpassing them in economic development and supposedly getting more attention in schools.

Hell, they even support a so-called "Black Hair" DVD that a white man is making money on, in four sequels at $20.00 a pop, talking about how. Koreans have taken over the "black hair" industry without acknowledging that Black entrepreneurs had 100 years to get a monopoly or entrenchment in the industry that Madam C.J Walker founded 100 years ago, but got out-hustled and out-strategize while spending investment capital elsewhere. Let's face it. They're being hoisted by their own petards."

Some members went looking for dictionaries, while most members nodded as it hit them that their job was finished; that Blacks had become their own worst enemy. The leader shook his head. "It's time to go back to our regular lives as policemen, judges and congressmen, and leave the business of getting rid of Blacks to Blacks. They are just better at it than us."

He then threw his hood on the ground and walked off the stage and thus ended the last KKK meeting.

There is a message here. I truly hope you are able fathom it and take something away from it. WE ARE OUR OWN WORST ENEMY!

UNWANTED

http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/compass.asp

Dear All,

In early December a movie is being released that will be geared toward
children. It stars Nicole Kidman and it's title is "The Golden Compass". It
is based on a trilogy of books written by a well known atheist who openly
admits his hatred of God. He is from Britain and not as well known here in
the U.S. This is NOT a rumor. Check out snopes.com and
type in the name of the movie for more info. Long story short, the movie ends
with the children killing God. Is your heart beating fast? Should be.

Please send this to as many people as you can think of. The atheist message
is very subtle in this movie (unlike the book) but it is still there and
parents who are unaware of the hidden message might unknowingly send their
children to this movie...or even take them there themselves!


Please call our local movie theater's and voice your opinion that this type
of movie is unwanted in our town!!! If they know they can't make money off of
it, they will not show it. Thanks for your help and let's pray that God will
not allow this movie to influence the minds of impressionable children.
Please pass it on to everyone you know and let our local theater know how you
feel about it.
Thanks,

All The Extraordinary, Wonderful, Weird, Wacky and Fantastic
People in Our Lives. Please Enjoy!

1. Try everything twice. On Madam's tombstone (of Whelan's and Madam)
she said she wanted this epitaph: Tried everything twice ... loved it both times!

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.
(Keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches)

3. Keep learning: Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever.
Never let the brain get idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop."
And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. And if
you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and lots of time with HIM/HER.


6. The tears happen: Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with
us our entire life, is ourselves. LIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love: Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable,
improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county,
to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.


10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.
I love you, my special friend.

11. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time.

And if you don't send this to at least 4 people - who cares?
But do share this with someone .

Lost time can never be found.

Be kinder than necessary,
for everyone you meet is
fighting some kind of battle!

Friends Are God's Way Of Taking Care Of Us

Psalm 55:22

This was written by a of Metro Denver Hospice Physician:

I was driving home from a meeting this evening about 5, stuck in traffic on Colorado Blvd., and the car started to choke and splutter and die - I barely managed to coast, cursing, into a gas station, glad only that I would not be blocking traffic and would have a somewhat warm spot to wait for the tow truck. It wouldn't even turn over. Before I could make the call, I saw a woman walking out of the "quickie mart" building, and it looked like she slipped on some ice and fell into a Gas pump, so I got out to see if she was okay.

When I got there, it looked more like she had been overcome by sobs than that she had fallen; she was a young woman who looked really haggard with dark circles under her eyes. She dropped something as I helped her up, and I picked it up to give it to her. It was a nickel.

At that moment, everything came into focus for me: the crying woman, the ancient Suburban crammed full of stuff with 3 kids in the back (1 in a car seat), and the gas pump reading $4.95.

I asked her if she was okay and if she needed help, and she just kept saying " don't want my kids to see me crying," so we stood on the other side of the pump from her car. She said she was driving to California and that things were very hard for her right now. So I asked, "And you were praying?" That made her back away from me a little, but I assured her I was not a crazy person and said, "He heard you, and He sent me."

I took out my card and swiped it through the card reader on the pump so she could fill up her car completely, and while it was fueling, walked to the next door McDonald's and bought 2 big bags of food, some gift certificates for more, and a big cup of coffee. She gave the food to the kids in the car, who attacked it like wolves, and we stood by the pump eating fries and talking a little.

She told me her name, and that she lived in Kansas City Her boyfriend left 2 months ago and she had not been able to make ends meet. She knew she wouldn't have money to pay rent Jan 1, and finally in desperation had finally called her parents, with whom she had not spoken in about 5 years. They lived in California and said she could come live with them and try to get on her feet there.

So she packed up everything she owned in the car. She told the kids they were going to California for Christmas, but not that they were going to live there.

I gave her my gloves, a little hug and said a quick prayer with her for safety on the road. As I was walking over to my car, she said, "So, are you like an angel or something?"

This definitely made me cry. I said, "Sweetie, at this time of year angels are really busy, so sometimes God uses regular people."

It was so incredible to be a part of someone else's miracle. And of course, you guessed it, when I got in my car it started right away and got me home with no problem. I'll put it in the shop tomorrow to check, but I suspect the mechanic won't find anything wrong.

Sometimes the angels fly close enough to you that you can hear the flutter of their wings...

Psalms 55:22 "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee.
He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved."

My instructions were to pick four people that I wanted God to bless, and I picked you.

Please pass this to people you want to be blessed and a copy back.

Here is the prayer:

"Father, I ask You to bless my children, grandchildren, friends, relatives and email buddies reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self doubt, release a renewed conf idence through Your grace, In Jesus' precious name. Amen."

Three men died on Christmas Eve and were met by Saint Peter at the pearly gates.'

In honor of this holy season' Saint Peter said,' You must each possess something that symbolizes Christmas to get into heaven.'

The first man fumbled through his pockets and pulled out a lighter.He flicked it on.

'It represents a candle', he said.'You may pass through the pearly gates' Saint Peter said.

The second man reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of keys.

He shook them and said, 'They're bells.'Saint Peter said 'You may pass through the pearly gates'.

The third man started searching desperately through his pockets and finally pulled out a pair of women's panties. St.

Peter looked at the man with a raised eyebrow and asked, 'And just what do those symbolize?

'The man replied, 'These are Carols.'

_AND SO THE CHRISTMAS SEASON BEGINS......

It Is Close To Christmas Too.

It's close to Christmas too......Miracles do happen.


In September 1960, I woke up one morning with six hungry babies
and just 75 cents in my pocket. Their father was gone. The boys
ranged from three months to seven years; their sister was two.

Their Dad had never been much more than a presence they feared.
Whenever they heard his tires crunch on the gravel driveway they would scramble
to hide under their beds.He did manage to leave $15 a week to buy groceries.

Now that he had decided to leave, there would be no more beatings,
but no food either.If there was a welfare system in effect in southern Indiana at
that time, I certainly knew nothing about it.

I scrubbed the kids until they looked brand new and then put on my best home made dress, loaded them into the rusty old 51 Chevy and drove off to find a job.

The seven of us went to every factory, store and restaurant in our small town.
No Luck. The kids stayed crammed into the car and tried to be quiet while I tried to convince who ever would listen that I was willing to learn or do anything.

I had to have a job.Still no luck. The last place we went to, just a few miles
out of town, was an old Root Beer Barrel drive -in t hat had been converted
to a truck stop.

It was called the Big Wheel.An old lady named Granny owned the place and
she peeked out of the window from time to time at all those kids.

She needed someone on the graveyard shift, 11 at night until seven in the morning.
She paid 65 cents an hour, and I could start that night.
I raced home and called the teenager down the street that baby-sat for people.

I bargained with her to come and sleep on my sofa for a dollar a night.
She could arrive with her pajamas on and the kids would already be asleep

This seemed like a good arrangement to her, so we made a deal.That night
when the little ones and I knelt to say our prayers, we all thanked God for
finding Mommy a job.

And so I started at the Big Wheel. when I got home in the mornings I woke the baby-sitter up and sent her home with one dollar of my tip money-- fully half of what I averaged every night.

As the weeks went by, heating bills added a strain to my meager wage.
The tires on the old Chevy had the consistency of penny balloons and began to leak.
I had to fill them with air on the way to work and again every morning before I could go home.

One bleak fall morning, I dragged myself to the car to go home and found four
tires in the back seat. New tires!

There was no note, no nothing, just those beautiful brand new tires.

Had angels taken up residence in Indiana ?

I wondered.I made a deal with the local service station.

In exchange for his mounting the new tires, I would clean up his office.

I remember it took me a lot longer to scrub his floor tha n it did for him to do the tires.

I was now working six nights instead of five and it still wasn't enough.

Christmas was coming and I knew there would be no money for toys for the kids.

I found a can of red paint and started repairing and painting some old toys.

Then I hid them in the basement so there would be something for Santa to deliver on Christmas morning.

Clothes were a worry too. I was sewing patches on top of patches on the boys
pants and soon they would be too far gone to repair.On Christmas Eve
the usual customers were drinking coffee in the Big Wheel.

There were the truckers, Les , Frank, and Jim, and a state trooper named Joe.

A few musicians were hanging around after a gig at the Legion and were dropping nickels in the pinball machine.

The regulars all just sat around and talked through the wee hours of
the morning and then left to get home before the sun came up.

When it was time for me to go home at seven o'clock on Christmas morning,
to my amazement, my old battered Chevy was filled full to the top with boxes
of all shapes and sizes.

I quickly opened the driver's side door, crawled inside and kneeled in the
front facing the back seat.Reaching back, I pulled off the lid of the top box.

Inside was whole case of little blue jeans, sizes 2-10!

I looked inside another box: It was full of shirts to go with the jeans.

Then I peeked inside some of the other boxes.

There was candy and nuts and bananas and bags of groceries.

There was an enormous ham for baking, and canned vegetables and potatoes.

There was pudding and Jell-O and cookies, pie filling and flour.

There was whole bag of laundry supplies and cleaning items.

And there were five toy trucks and one beautiful little doll.As I drove
back through empty streets as the sun slowly rose on the most amazing
Christmas Day of my life, I was sobbing with gratitude.

And I will never forget the joy on the faces of my little ones that precious morning.
Yes, there were angels in Indiana that long ago December.

And they all hung out at the Big Wheel truck stop..

The POWER OF PRAYER, I believe that God only gives three answers to prayer:

1."Yes!"

2. "Not yet."

3. "I have something better in mind."

God still sits on the thone, the devil is a liar.You may be going through a tough
time right now but God is getting ready to bless you in a way that you cannot
imagine.My instructions were to pick four people that I wanted God to bless,and
I picked you.

Please pass this to at least four people you want to be blessed and a copy back to me.

This prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts we receive.

There is no cost but a lot of rewards Let's continue to pray for one another.

Here is the prayer:.... Father, I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and
email buddies reading this right now.

Show them a new revelation of Your love and power.Amen.
I know I picked more than four, so can you

An Offer You Can't Refuse

Thanksgiving is over for this year, and I was too busy to get this out before,
but it's still an opportunity to get something off your chest, regardless of party
affiliation. Seldom do you get an invitation like this. I must confess,
I was pleasantly surprised when it came. Be sure and take a look at what others
are saying, for the record.

Thanksgiving is a time for personal reflection an opportunity to give thanks
and count our blessings. It is, of course, also a time to share great food and
conversation with the people that are close to our hearts. It is important to
take time out of our busy schedules to remember what is really important in our lives.

As we approach this very special time of year, I can't help but reflect on what
a privilege it is to be an American. There are many things to be thankful for,
not the least of which include life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

These are concepts that the original Pilgrims set out to establish, the founding fathers enshrined in our Constitution, and what thousands of American men and women are
doing overseas while fighting for freedom and democracy. The sacrifices of these
people cannot be understated.

House Republican Whip Rep. Roy Blunt has started a conversation on our
blog to honor these people as well as provide a forum for all citizens to list
the things for which they are thankful. As we all prepare to join family and
friends for this holiday, I urge you to read Congressman Blunt's post, and
add to the conversation yourself by clicking here.

Thanks again for all you have done for the NRCC,
and Happy Thanksgiving!

Sincerely,
Tom Cole, M.C. Chairman

God is leaving Washington, D.C.

It's a fact: God is getting squeezed way out of Washington, D.C.
Now, before you read any further, know this: I'm not here to spout off my
beliefs in God or religion.
But I am a firm believer in accurately reporting history whether
or not I'm proud of it, believe in it, or even like it.
And whatever my personal beliefs may be, I think it's a dangerous game to
try to erase the heritage left by our founding fathers religious or otherwise.
But that's exactly what's happening every day in this country.
I could give dozens of examples, but this is the latest one to cross my desk.
"Laus Deo," or praise be to God, is inscribed on the east side of the aluminum
cap that sits high atop the Washington Monument.
Since not too many people have the opportunity to see the real thing,
the National Park Service has created a replica. In 2000, the replica was
displayed in such a way that all four sides could clearly
be seen, but in 2007, the "Laus Deo" side of the monument has been
pressed so closely to the wall that no amount of straining or contorting
can allow you to see the inscription.
It was mysteriously removed from the plaque's description as well. In 2000, it read,
"APEX OF THE MONUMENT The builders searched for an appropriate metal for
the apex that would not tarnish and would act as a lightning rod.
They chose one of the rarest metals of the time, aluminum.
The casting was inscribed with the phrase, Laus Deo, (Praise be to God)."
In 2007, the last sentence is no longer there. Instead, itreads:
"CAP OF THE MONUMENT The builders searched for appropriate metal for
the apex that would not tarnish and would act as a lightning rod.
They chose one of the rarest metals of the time aluminum." Period!
A National Park Service ranger said, "It's not a conspiracy or anything"
Yeah right. This whole Washington Monument issue might seem minor
and by itself, it is.
But when you tack it on to other anti-God movements
that are done in the name of being politically correct
(like calls to rewrite the Pledge of Allegiance), suddenly the molehill becomes
a mountain.
One more thing: I just read a story about some high school students
who put up a poster advertising a program called Operation Christmas Child.
The school forced them to replace the word "Christmas" with the word "Holiday."
I'm pretty sure there's nothing in the books (as of yet) that actually
outlaws God or Christmas.

The Old Motor

He's 80, she's 20.

It was the talk of the town when an 80 year old man married a 20 year old girl.

After a year of marriage she went into the hospital to give birth. The nurse came out to congratulate the fellow saying: "This is amazing. How do you do it at your age?"

He answered, "You've got to keep the old motor running."

The following year the young bride gave birth again. The same nurse said: "You're amazing! How do you do it?"

He again said: "You've got the keep the old motor running."

The same thing happened the next year. The nurse then said: "Well, well, well!!! You certainly are quite a man!"

He responded again, "You've got to keep that old motor running."

The nurse said: "Well, you better change the oil. This one's black."

FLORAL DELIVERY

I would rather have one rose and a kind word from a friend while I'm here
Than a whole truck load when I'm gone.
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrows keep you Human,
Failures keep you Humble,
Success keeps you Glowing,
But Only God Keeps You Going!

DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH


Check, Evaluate, and look up references for yourself, before trying this:

DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH
It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:
Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.
METHOD OF TREATMENT:
1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160 ml glasses of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minutes
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours
5. Those that are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the
beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to
4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy
a healthy life.
The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/
reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure - 30 days
2. Gastric - 10 days
3. Diabetes - 30 days
4. Constipation - 10 days
5. Cancer - 180 days
6. TB - 90 days
7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week,
and from 2nd week onwards - daily.
This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of
treatment you may have to urinate a few times.
It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life.
Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.
This makes sense ...The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals not
cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to
lose, everything to gain...
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will
solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.
Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by
the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this
will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water
after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks: Women should know that not every
heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting.
Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.
Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.
60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.
Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware.
The more we know the better chance we could survive...
A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to everyone they know,
you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.
**Please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.
I just did!!!**

The Bishop's Secret

On the last day of his trip a priest hooked a monsterfish and proceeded to reel it in.

The guide, holding a net, yelled, "look at the size ofthat Son of a Bitch!"

"Son, I'm a priest. Your language is uncalled for!"

"No, Father, that's what kind of fish it is--a Son ofa Bitch fish!"

"Really? Well, then, help me land this Son of aBitch!"

Once in the boat, they marveled at the size of themonster.

Father, that's the biggest Son of a Bitch I've everseen."

"Yes, it is a big Son of a Bitch. What should I dowith it?"

"Why, eat it of course. You've never tasted anythingas good as a Son of a Bitch!"

Elated, the priest headed home to the rectory.

While unloading his gear and his prize catch, SisterMary inquired about his trip.
"Take a look at this big Son of a Bitch I caught!"

Sister Mary gasped and clutched her rosary, "Father!"

"It's OK, Sister. That's what kind of fish it is--aSon of a Bitch fish!"

"Oh, well then, what are you going to do with that bigSon of a Bitch?"

"Why, eat it of course. The guide said nothingcompares to the taste of a Son of a Bitch."

Sister Mary informed the priest that the new Bishopwas scheduled to visit in a few days and that theyshould fix the Son of a Bitch for his dinner.

"I'll even clean the Son of a Bitch," she said.

As she was cleaning the huge fish, the Friar walkedin. "What are you doing Sister?"

"Father wants me to clean this big Son of a Bitch forthe new Bishops' dinner."

"Sister! I'll clean it if you're so upset! Pleasewatch your language!"

"No, no! No, it's called a Son of a Bitch fish."

"Really? Well, in that case, I'll fix up a great mealto go with it, an d that Son of a Bitch can be themain course!

Let me know when you've finished cleaning that Son ofa Bitch."

On the night of the new Bishop's visit, everything wasperfect.

The Friar had prepared an excellent meal. The wine wasfine, and the fish was excellent.

The new Bishop said, "This is great fish, where didyou get it?"

"I caught that Son of a Bitch!" proclaimed the proudpriest.

The Bishop's eyes opened wide, but he said nothing.

"And I cleaned the Son of a Bitch!" exclaimed theSister.

The Bishop sat silent in disbelief.

The Friar added, "And I prepared the Son of a Bitch,using a special recipe!"

The new Bishop looked around at each of them.

Slowly a big smile crept across his face as he said,

"You mother fuckers are my kind of people."

NEW ONES !

VERY FUNNY YALL - I'VE NEVER HEARD ANY OF THESE BEFORE

anybody know what butt dust is?
JACK (age 3) was watching his Mom breast-feeding his new baby sister.
After a while he asked: "Mom why have you got two?
Is one for hot and one for cold milk?"
MELANIE (age 5) asked her Granny how old she was.
Granny replied she was so old she didn't remember any more.
Melanie said, "If you don't remember you must look in the back of your panties.
Mine say five to six."
STEVEN (age 3) hugged and kissed his Mom good night.
"I love you so much that when you die
I'm going to bury you outside my bedroom window."
BRITTA NY (age 4) had an earache and wanted a pain killer.
She tried in vain to take the lid off the bottle.
Seeing her frustration, her Mom explained it was a child-proof cap
and she'd have to open it for her.
Eyes wide with wonder, the little girl asked:
"How does it know it's me?"
SUSAN (age 4) was drinking juice when she got the hiccups.
"Please don't give me this juice again,
" she said, "It makes my teeth cough."
DJ (age 4) stepped onto the bathroom scale and asked: "How much do I cost?
"MARC (age 4) was engrossed in a young couple
that were hugging and kissing in a restaurant.
Without taking his eyes off them, he asked his dad:
"Why is he whispering in her mouth?"
CLINTON (age 5) was in his bedroom looking worried.
When his Mom asked what was troubling him, he replied,
"I don't know what'll happen with this bed when I get married.
How will my wife fit in?"
JAMES (age 4) was listening to a Bible story. His dad read:
"The man named Lot was warned to take his wife and flee
out of the city but his wife looked back and was turned to salt.
" Concerned, James asked: "What happened to the flea?"
TAMMY (age 4) was with her mother when they met an elderly,
rather wrinkled woman her Mom knew.
Tammy looked at her for a while and then asked,
"Why doesn't your skin fit your face?"
The Sermon I think this Mom will never forget....
this particular Sunday sermon...
"Dear Lord," the minister began, with arms
extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face.
"Without you, we are but dust."
He would have continued but at that moment my very
obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked
quite audibly in her shrill little four year old girl voice,
"Mom, what is butt dust?"

The Truth About the Pilgrims add Thanksgiving

The Truth About the Pilgrims and Thanksgiving
(From someone who was there)
Thanksgiving and the Pilgrims seem to go together,
just like Christmas and Santa Claus--
but the truth is, the Pilgrims never
held an autumnal Thanksgiving feast.
Whaaaat?
Before you cancel next year's turkey,
take a look at the origin of that particular myth.
In some ways, the truth is even more intriguing.
The Pilgrims did have a feast in 1621,
after their first harvest,
and it is this feast which people often refer to as
"The First Thanksgiving".
This feast was never repeated, though,
so it can't be called the beginning of a tradition,
nor was it termed by the colonists or
"Pilgrims" a Thanksgiving Feast.
In fact, to these devoutly religious people,
a day of thanksgiving was a day of prayer and fasting,
and would have been held any time
that they felt an extra day of thanks was called for.
Nevertheless, the 1621 feast has become a model of
what we think of when we think of our own
Thanksgiving celebration,
and we do know something of the truth about it.
We can assume, for example, that the harvest feast was eaten outside,
based on the fact that the Colonists didn't have a building
large enough to accommodate all the people who came.
Native Americans were definately among the invited guests,
and it's possible. even probable, that turkey (roasted but not stuffed)
and pumpkin in some form, found their way to the table.
And it gets even better. This is the way the feast was described
in a first-hand account presumably by a leader of the colony,
Edward Winslow:
"Our harvest being gotten in, our governor sent four men on fowling
(bird-hunting) , that so we might after a special manner rejoice together
after we had gathered the fruit of our labors.
They four in one day killed as much fowl as, with a little help beside,
served the company almost a week.
At which time, amongst other recreations, we exercised our arms.
Many of the Indians coming amongst us, and among the rest,
their greatest, King Massasoit, with some ninety men,
whom for three days we entertained and feasted,
and they went out and killed five deer,
which they brought to the plantation and bestowed
on our governor, and upon the ca[tain, and others.
And although it be not always so plentiful as it was this time with us,
yet by the goodness of God, we are so far
from want that we often wish you partakers of our plenty."
From this we know that the feast went on for three days,
included ninety "Indians", and food was plentiful. In addition,
to the vensison provided by the Indians, there was enough
wild fowl to supply the village for a week.
The fowl would have included ducks, geese, turkeys and even swans.
Not a bad beginning for what wasn't really
"the first Thanksgiving", huh?
My best wishes to friends, family and associates
for a really SPECIAL Thanksgiving, 2007.
God Bless you, Everyone.
I Give Thee Thanks ....
For all the blazing sunsets of this year.
For all those precious children, Oh, so dear.
For small and insignificant things
And for the songs that my heart sings,
I Give Thee Thanks ....
For all the blazing sunsets of this year.
For all those precious children, Oh, so dear.
For small and insignificant things
And for the songs that my heart sings,
I give Thee thanks.
I give Thee thanks ...
For all the soldiers who are serving us.
For those who bear the blessed gospel trust.
For old acquaintances renewed.
For wonders clearly signed by You,
My Lord, I give Thee thanks.
Sweet Lord, I give Thee thanks.

'When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.' (what an image) Karen - age 7 'Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross.' Mark - age 6
'You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot people forget.' Jessica - age 8
And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child. The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, 'Nothing, I just helped him cry' When there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out that God is all you need. Take 60 seconds and give this a shot! All you do is simply say the following small prayer for the person who sent you this. Father, God bless all my friends in whatever it is that You know they may be needing this day! And may their life be full of your peace, prosperity and power as he/she seeks to have a closer relationship with you.

In His Name. Amen.

My grandfather's son

Clarence Thomas wrote a book and from what tom Joyner has said and I quote “He is bitter” he talks about being a darker skinned brother and how women didn’t date him or like him. He talks about being called names from family and school kids…. You find it interesting.

Retirement is different for everyone

One day, while going to the store, I passed by a nursing home. On the front lawn were six old ladies lying naked on the grass. I thought this was a bit unusual, but continued on my way to the store. On my return trip, I passed the same nursing home with the same six old ladies lying naked on the lawn. This time my curiosity got the best of me, and I went inside to talk to the Nursing Home Administrator. "Do you know there are six ladies lying naked on your front lawn?" "Yes," she said. "They 're retired prostitutes, and they're having a yard sale."

Credit Card Scam

This one is pretty slick since they provide YOU with all the information, except the one piece they want.Note, the callers do not ask for your card number; they already have it.
This information is worth reading.
By understanding how the VISA & MasterCard Telephone Credit Card Scam works, you'll be better prepared to protect yourself. One of our employees was called on Wednesday from "VISA", and I was called on Thursday from "Master Card".

The scam works like this: Caller: "This is (name), and I'm calling from the Security and Fraud Department at VISA. My Badge number is 12460. Your card has been flagged for an unusual purchase pattern, and I'm calling to verify.
This would be on your VISA card which was issued by (name of bank). Did you purchase an Anti-Telemarketing Device for $497.99 from a Marketing company based in Arizona ?"
When you say "No", the caller continues with, "Then we will be issuing a credit to your account. This is a company we have been watching and the charges range from $297 to $497, just under the $500 purchase pattern that flags most cards.
Before your next statement, the credit will be sent to (gives you your address), is that correct?"You say "yes". The caller continues - "I will be starting a Fraud investigation.

If you have any questions, you should call the 1- 800 number listed on the back of your card (1-800-VISA) and ask for Security.

You will need to refer to this Control Number. The caller then gives you a 6 digit number. "Do you need me to read it again?"Here's the IMPORTANT part on how the scam works. The caller then says, "I need to verify you are in possession of your card". He'll ask you to "turn your card over and look for some numbers". ;
There are 7 numbers; the first 4 are part of your card number, the next 3 are the security Numbers' that verify you are the possessor of the card.
These are the numbers you sometimes use to make Internet purchases to prove you have the card.
The caller will ask you to read the 3 numbers to him. After you tell the caller the 3 numbers, he'll say, "That is correct, I just needed to verify that the card has not been lost or stolen, and that you still have your card.
Do you have any other questions?" After you say No, the caller then thanks you and states, "Don't hesitate to call back if you do", and hangs up.
You actually say very little, and they never ask for or tell you the Card number.
But after we were called on Wednesday, we called back within 20 minutes to ask a question.
Are we glad we did! The REAL VISA Security Department told us it was a scam and in the last 15 minutes a new purchase of $497.99 was charged to our card.Lo n g story - short - we made a real fraud report and closed the VISA account.
VISA is reissuing us a new number.What the scammers want is the 3-digit PIN number on the back of the card. Don't give it to them..
Instead, tell them you'll call VISA or Master card directly for verification of their conversation. The real VISA told us that they will never ask for anything on the card as they already know the information since they issued the card!
If you give the scammers your 3 Digit PIN Number, you think you're receiving a credit. However, by the time you get your statement you'll see charges for purchases you didn't make, and by then it's almost too late and/or more difficult to actually file a fraud report.
What makes this more remarkable is that on Thursday, I got a call from a "Jason Richardson of Master Card" with a word-for-word repeat of the VISA scam.
This time I didn't let him finish. I hung up! We filed a police r ep ort, as instructed by VISA. The police said they are taking several of these reports daily!
They also urged us to tell everybody we know that this scam is happening.Please pass this on to all your family and friends. By informing each other, we protect each other.

What is Politics?

A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is Politics?" Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way:
I am the head of the family, so call me The President.Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.
We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you the People.
The nanny, we will consider her the Working Class. And your baby brother, we will call him the Future.
Now think about that and see if it makes sense. "So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said..Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him.
He finds that the baby hasseverely soiled his diaper. So the little boy goes to his parent's room and finds his mother asleep. Not want ing to wakeher, he goes to the nanny's room.

Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny.He gives up and goes back to bed.
The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now.The father says,
"Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about.
"The little boy replies, "The President is screwing the Working Class while the Government is sound asleep.
The People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit."

WAY TO GO SEARS !

Holiday shopping has already started I know I needed this reminder since Sears isn't always my first choice. Amazing when you think of how long the war has lasted and they haven't withdrawn from their commitment. Could we each buy at least one thing at Sears this year?
How does Sears treat its employees who are called up for military duty? By law, they are required to hold their jobs open and available, but nothing more. Usually, people take a big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of being called up.
Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees for up to two years.
I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized for its contribution. I suggest we all shop at Sears, and be sure to find a manager to tell them why we are there so the company gets the positive reinforcement it well deserves.

Pass it on. Decided to check this before I sent it forward. So I sent the following e-mail to the Sears Customer Service Department:
I received this e-mail and I would like to know if it is true. I f it is, the Internet may have just become one very good source of advertisement for your company. I know I would go out of my way to buy products from Sears instead of another store for a like item, even if it's cheaper at that store. This is their answer to my e-mail:

Dear Customer:
Thank you for contacting Sears.
The information is factual.
We appreciate your positive feedback.Sears regards service to our country as one of greatest sacrifices our young men and women can make.
We are happy to do our part to lessen the burden they bear at this time.
Bill ThornSears Customer Carewebcenter@sears.com
1-800-349-4358Please pass this on to all your friends.

Sears needs to be recognized for this outstanding contribution and we need to show them as Americans, we do appreciate what they are doing for our military!!!

10 RULES FOR THANKSGIVING DINNER AT MY HOUSE

10 RULES FOR THANKSGIVING DINNER AT MY HOUSE

1. Don't get in line asking questions about the food. 'Who made the potato salad? you know good and well that aunt Bert always makes it Are the greens fresh? Is the meat in the greens turkey or pork? Who made the macaroni and cheese? What kind of pie is that? Who made it? Ask one more question and I will punch you in your mouth, knocking out all your fronts so you won't be able to eat ----.

2. If you can't walk or are missing any limbs, sit down until someone makes your plate for you. Dinner time is not the time for you to be independent. Nibble on the pecans and walnuts to hold you over until someone makes you a plate.

3. If you have kids under the age of twelve, I will escort them to the garage and bring their food down to them. They are not gonna tear my house up this year. Tell them that they are not allowed upstairs until it's time for aunt Thelma to start telling family stories about their mommas and papas.

4. There is going to be one prayer for Thanksgiving dinner! JUST ONE! We do not care that you are thankful that your 13 year old daughter gave birth to a healthy baby or your nephew just got out of jail. Save that talk for somebody who gives a d---. The time limit for the prayer is one minute.

5. Finish everything on your plate before you go up for seconds! If you don't, you will be cursed out and asked to stay your greedy --- home next year!

6. BRING YOUR OWN TUPPERWARE!! Don't let me catch you fixing yourself a plate using my good Tupperware knowing good and well that I will never see it again! Furthermore, if you didn't bring anything over, don't let me catch you making a plate period or it will be a misunderstanding.

7. What you came with is what you should leave with!! Do not leave my house with anything that doesn't belong to you. EVERYBODY WILL BE SUBJECTED TO A BODY SEARCH COMING AND GOING OUT OF MY DOMAIN!!!

8. Do not leave your kids so you can go hopping from house to house. This is not a DAYCARE CENTER! There will be a kid-parent roll call every ten minutes. Any parent that is not present at the time of roll call, your child will be put outside until you come and get him or her. After 24 hours, I will call DHS on you.

9. BOOK YOUR HOTEL ROOM BEFORE YOU COME INTO TOWN!! There will be no sleeping over at my house! You are to come and eat dinner and take your --- home or to your hotel room. EVERYBODY GETS KICKED OUT AT 11:00 pm.

10. Last but not least! ONE PLATE PER PERSON!! This is not a soup kitchen. I am not trying to feed your family until Christmas dinner! You will be supervised when you fix your plate. Anything over the appropriate amount will be charged to you before you leave. There will be a cash register at the door. Thanks to Cousin Luther Jr and his fat greedy wife, we now have a credit card machine! So VISA and MASTERCARD are now being accepted. NO FOOD STAMPS OR ACCESS CARDS YET!

LOVE IN A MENTAL HOSPITAL

Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool,
Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end.
He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.
Edna promptly jumped in to save him.
She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.
When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act,
she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Edna the news she said, "Edna, I have good news and bad news.
The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a Crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.
The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead."
Edna replied, "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?"

WHO IS SHE REALLY!!

The Photo on the Night Stand. . .

After a long night of making love, he notices a photo
of another man on her nightstand by the bed.
He begins to worry.. "Is this your husband?" he nervously asks.
"No, silly," she replies, snuggling up to him.
"Your boyfriend, then?" he continues.
"No, not at all," she says, nibbling away at his ear.
"Is it your dad or your brother?" he inquires, hoping to be reassured.
"No, no, no! You are so hot when you're jealous!" she answers.
"Well, who in the heck is he, then?" he demands.
"That's me before the surgery."

AN ODD REPLACEMENT !!!

OUT WITH THE DO GOOD,
IN WITH THE FEEL GOOD.

Hotels replace Gideon Bibles with "sex kits"
Now is the time to let the motel chains know that you want them to keep the Gideon Bibles

The latest fad with some hotels is to replace their Bibles with "intimancy kits. " For instance, at New York City's trendy Soho Grand Hotel guests can enjoy a gourmet mini-bar, an iPod, a flat-screen TV and even the company of a complimentary pet goldfish.
But no Bible.Parent company Accor Hotels decided to replace the Gideon Bibles with "intimacy kits." For Accor, providing travelers with sexual paraphernalia is more important than the Bible. Accor Hotels owns several chains including: Motel 6, Sofitel, Pullman, Novotel, Mercure, Suitehotel, Ibis,
All Seasons, Etap, Formule 1. While these chains are mostly located in Europe, Accor is expanding to many U.S. markets.Since 2001, the number of luxury hotels with Bibles in the rooms has dropped by 18 percent. The same companies that own these luxury hotels also own some of the typical hotels and motels you and I might use.

For example, Accor Hotels owns Motel 6. Without action now, it is simply a matter of time before other chains remove the Bibles.

Do you know this man?

"America's High Tech "Invisible Man"

By Tyrone D. Taborn

You may not have heard of Dr. Mark Dean. And you aren't alone. But almost everything in your life has been affected by his work.
See, Dr. Mark Dean is a Ph.D. from Stanford University.He is in the National Hall of Inventors. He has more than 30 patents pending. He is a vice president with IBM. Oh, yeah. And he is also thearchitect of the modern-day personal computer. Dr. Dean holds three ofthe original nine patents on the computer that all PCs are based upon.And, Dr.Mark Dean is an African American.
So how is! it that we can celebrate the 20th anniversaryof the IBM personal computer without reading or hearing a single wordabout him? Given all of the pressure mass media are under about negative portrayals of African Americans on television and in print, you would think it would be a slam dunk to highlight someone like Dr. Dean. Somehow, though, we have managed to miss the shot.History is cruel when it comes to telling the stories of African Americans.
Dr.Dean isn't the first Black inventor to be over looked Consider John Stanard, inventor of the refrigerator, George Sampson,creator of the clothes dryer, Alexander Miles and his elevator, Lewis Latimer and the electric lamp.
All of these inventors share two things: One, they changed the landscape of our society; and,two, society relegated them to the foot notes of history.
Hopefully, Dr.Mark Dean won't go away as quietly as they did. He certainly shouldn't.Dr. Dean helped start a Digital Revolution that created people likeMicrosoft's Bill Gates and Dell Computer's Michael Dell. Millions of jobs in information technology can be traced back directly to Dr.Dean.
More important, stories like Dr. Mark Dean's should serve as inspiration for African-American children. Already victims of the "Digital Divide" and failing school systems, young, Black kids might embrace technology with more enthusiasm! if they knew someone like Dr.Dean already was leading the way. Although technically Dr. Dean can't be credited with creating the computer -- that is left to Alan Turing, a pioneering 20th-century English mathematician, widely considered to be the father of modern computer science -- Dr. Dean rightly deserves to take a bow for the machine we use today.
The computer really wasn't practical for home or small business use until he came along, leading a team that developed the interior architecture (ISA systems! bus) that enablesmultiple devices, such as modems and printers, to be connected topersonal computers.
In other words, because of Dr. Dean, the PC became apart of our daily lives. For most of us, changing the face of society would have been enough. But not for Dr. Dean..
Still in his early forties, he has! a lot of inventing left in him. He recently made history again by leading the design team responsible for creating the first 1-gigahertz processor chip..It's just another huge step in making computers faster and smaller.
As the world congratulates itself for the new Digital Age brought on by the personal computer, we need to guarantee that the African-American story is part of the hoopla surrounding the most stunning technological advance the world has ever seen..
We cannot afford to let Dr. Mark Deanbecome a footnote in history. He is well worth his own history book.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO EVERY BLACK PERSON YOU KNOW

PS.
I disagree, why not every person whatever colour?
It's not just a black persons problem, so why keep
it amoung them The world should be made aware.

Whoopsie Daisy: Sexual Deviants

A large number of GOP candidates or public officials who use theircampaigns to spread their own agenda against a percieved defect insociety's sexuality almost definitely have something wrong with theirown. There are frighteningly direct correlations between those politiciansthat rail against homosexuality and those that pick up underage boys.(Not that the two have anything to do with one another.) Or betweenthose that talk about the sanctity of marriage and abstinence and thosethat cheat on their wives and molest their daughter's friends. If you see a headline that a politician has done something illegal witha child you can bet the politician was a Republican. It's not that therearen't Democratic sexual deviants, it's just the vast majority of creepsand predators are members of the GOP. This list is only to point out the hypocrisy that exists within theparty, the do as I say not as I do way of governing. Next time a politician tells you how to act sexually, hide your kids andvote for the other party. Some of this is truly sick. Hypocrisy thy name is... Nicholas Elizondo, Director of the Young Republican Federation molestedhis 6-year old daughter and was sentenced to six years in prison. Larry Dale Floyd, Republican Constable in Denton County, Texas PrecinctTwo. Arrested for allegedly crossing state lines to have sex with an8-year old child and was charged with 7 related offenses.
