i am a little ticked off that hubby used a credit card we had paid off. it was only for 95 bucks, but because he used it, they sent us not only the bill for the 95 bucks, but the 75 dollar annual fee. so i owe 170 bucks, since he 'basically activated' the account again by using it. grrrrrrrrrrowl.

My mom had a piece of bread with a finger tip in it once. Just skin, but enough that you could see the finger prints. It was in a store bought loaf of bread. Yeah, ewwww. Especially since we're vegetarians. Definitly don't want any human meat.

Tabbyking- why on earth do you use/have a credit card that has an annual fee? Is it one of those airline miles cards? Cancel the thing!!!!

Lol Essence! That happened 20 miles north of me and has been the talk of the town for a week. Especially since some of my co-workers had eaten there the prior week.

A teacher gave her class of 11 year olds an assignment: Get their parent to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it. The next day the kids came back and one by one began to tell their stories. Ashley said, "My father's a farmer and we have a lot of egg laying hens. One time we were taking our eggs to market in a basket on the front seat of the car when we hit a big bump in the road and all the eggs went flying and broke and made a mess." "What's the moral of the story?" asked the teacher. "Don't put all your eggs in one basket!" "Very good," said the teacher. Next little Sarah raised her hand and said, "Our family are farmers too. But we raise chickens for the meat market. One day we had a dozen eggs, but when they hatched we only got ten live chicks, and the moral to this story is, 'Don't count your chickens before they're hatched'." "That was a fine story Sarah. Michael, do you have a story to share?" "Yes. My daddy told me this story about my Aunt Karen. Aunt Karen was a flight engineer on a plane in the Gulf War and her plane got hit. She had to bail out over enemy territory and all she had was a bottle of whisky, a machine gun and a machete. She drank the whiskey on the way down so it wouldn't break and then she landed right in the middle of 100 enemy troops. She killed seventy of them with the machine gun until she ran out of bullets. Then she killed twenty more with the machete until the blade broke. And then she killed the last ten with her bare hands." "Good heavens," said the horrified teacher, "what kind of moral did your daddy tell you from that horrible story?" "Stay the ---- away from Aunt Karen when she's been drinking!"

i read an article on residents of martha stewart's hometown and how they think she is innocent or shouldn't get any jail time. i find it rather 'funny' that they had quotes from employed and educated people who felt martha should not do any time...and then found this person to show someone who thought martha should do time. unbiased reporting at its best here is that part of the article: Still, some believe she should go to prison. ``I think she got what she deserved,'' said Annette Decaito, 45, an unemployed woman, scratching off lottery tickets at the counter of Giorgio's Coffee Shop. ``What she did was wrong, famous or not famous. I hope she serves every bit of that 20 years.''

This pretty much says it all. TRUE LOVE It was a busy morning, approximately 8:30 am, when an elderly gentleman, in his 80's, arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He stated that he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00 am. I took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before someone would to able to see him. I saw him looking at his watch and decided, since I was not busy with another patient, I would evaluate his wound. On exam it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors, got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound. While taking care of his wound, we began to engage in conversation. I asked him if he had a doctor's appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I then inquired as to her health. He told me that she had been there for awhile and that she was a victim of Alzheimer Disease. As we talked, and I finished dressing his wound, I asked if she would be worried if he was a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him in five years now. I was surprised, and asked him. "And you still going every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?" He smiled as he patted my hand and said.. "She doesn't know me, but I still know who she is." I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on my arm, and thought, "That is the kind of love I want in my life." True love is neither physical, nor romantic. True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be.
