Ever Heard This One??!? LOL
A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, ‘Harry, what’s your problem?’
Harry answered, ‘I’m too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I’m smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!’
Ms. Brooks had had enough. She took Harry to the principal’s office.
While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test. If he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed.
Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: ‘What is 3 x 3?’
Harry: ’9.’
Principal: ‘What is 6 x 6?’
Harry: ’36.’
And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd grader should know.
The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, ‘I think Harry can go to the 3rd grade.’
Ms. Brooks says to the principal, ‘Let me ask him some questions.’
The principal and Harry both agreed.
Ms. Brooks asks, ‘What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?’
Harry, after a moment: ‘Legs.’
Ms Brooks: ‘What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?’
The principal wondered why she would ask such a question!
Harry replied: ‘Pockets.’
Ms. Brooks: ‘What does a dog do that a man steps into?’
Harry: ‘Pants.’
The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open.
Ms. Brooks: ‘What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?’
The principal’s eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the answer, Harry replied, ‘Bubble gum.’
Ms. Brooks: ‘What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down and a dog does on three legs?’
Harry: ‘Shake hands.’
The principal was trembling.
Ms. Brooks: ‘What word starts with an ‘F’ and ends in ‘K’ that means a lot of heat and excitement?’
Harry: ‘Firetruck.’
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, ‘Put Harry in the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong…’
***and just what exactly were you thinking?!?! ;) xxx

What A Sick Article I Found...
This article upset me so much that I wasn't able to finish reading it... THEY EAT ABORTED BABIES/FETUSES OVER IN CHINA....I had no idea that this sort of thing went on in China, but it really doesn't surprise me, since they will eat ANYTHING over in disgusting Asia...I think I am better off NOT KNOWING some of the things that go on in the world cause it bothers me so much and I can't get it out of my mind then...It wouldn't even make me blink twice if they also did this in Japan and just kept quiet about it...They harrassed me everytime they saw me how I didn't like anything and that I was "missing out." Whatever. This is just sick eating aborted babies which is the unborn fetus claiming it is for "health benefits.." WTH is wrong with these people???????!?!?!? Just take a few vitamins, but please don't go and eat a baby who never even had a chance at life...Definately something I can't let out to my students, I don't want to be responsible for giving others nightmares like Japan gave me...Just thought I would get this out there to everyone to know about even though it's harder than &*%$##) to stomach....
Baby Eating in China
True or False – An Associated Message
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In China they are eating babies, in Loma Linda, they are — Harvesting Organs
The following is excerpted from an article in the January 1996 issue of Rutherford, the official journal of the Rutherford Institute (Charlottesville, VA). We have added subheads.
When reports of Chinese citizens eating human fetuses for health reasons surfaced in Hong Kong last year, many dismissed them as fiction . . , but when Eastweek and Eastern Express, two English-language publications based in Hong Kong, investigated, the reporters were in for a shock.
DISCOVERY IN CHINA
One investigator feigned illness and asked a Shenzhen hospital doctor for fetuses. Holding up a fist-sized glass bottle stuffed with ten thumb-sized unborns, the doctor said, “[They were] all aborted this morning. You can take them. We are a state-run hospital and don’t charge anything.” A private hospital spokesman offered to sell the reporters full-term unborn, which he claimed “contain the best healing qualities.”
Zou Qin, a doctor who claimed to have aborted several hundred unborn and eaten 100 fetuses herself, said, “People normally prefer [fetuses from] young women, and even better, the first boy and a male.”
She justifies the practice: “They are wasted if we don’t eat them . . Zou Qin has fed fetuses to her sister’s children. “I wash them with clear water until they look transparent white and then stew them. Making soup is best.” A photo depicts Zou Qin smiling, holding up a tiny fetus which hasn’t made it to her bowl yet.
WHAT DO WE DO HERE?
The stories are gruesome and almost unreal. Eating babies? But that, of course, is China, we say. In America, we abort babies, but we don’t eat them.
Or do we?
The ongoing American debate over using fetuses in medicine bears some striking parallels to China. One big difference is that America better understands the importance of “spin” and proper marketing techniques . .
Donating one’s own organs, or even allowing a loved one’s untimely death to take on added meaning by permitting doctors to use her organs to help another, has a long and respectable history. But by interweaving the taking of life with the giving of life, medicine and science begin to confuse their mission. A quick mention of the aborted fetus, and then on to the happy ending, the discovery, the patient’s cure, the family’s joy!
Real life isn’t that simple.
FETAL RESEARCH IN AMERICA
The history of fetal research is inextricably linked to the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion on demand in America. Other than a very few failed experiments around mid-century, little fetal research had been done before the 1970s. Roe and its progeny placed the preborn human’s body into legal limbo. Thus it became possible to observe the incredible irony of using the body parts of an allegedly non-human fetus to treat specifically human ailments. The heart might still beat, and the [unborn] child feel pain, but the fetus was now considered a “product.”
And like most products, “The fresher, the better.” Deterioration of brain tissue, as well as other bodily organs, commences almost immediately after death. So it became important to create an efficient assembly line which would seamlessly take the baby from the warm womb to deep frozen sterility . .
Finnish and American scientists did an experiment in 1973, described in Newsweek:
“[The team] decapitated a dozen human fetuses, each aborted live through hysterotomy, and kept the heads alive artificially for study. The ghoulish experiment—partially funded by the National Institute of Health—was designed to measure fetal metabolism. At about the same time, another research team kept a batch of aborted fetuses alive in saline solution in order to find out if they could absorb oxygen. One fetus survived for nearly a day.”
STILL BEING DONE TODAY
In 1974, responding to public censure of such science, Congress banned the federal funding of research on aborted fetuses, and tightneed those restrictions in 1985. This did not, however, forbid private institutions from conducting fetal research, since the fetus is not protected by law in the U.S. And the restrictions on [federal] funding were not total: Fetal tissue transplant research, which to this day remains the most medically and monetarily promising “use” for the unborn, was sponsored by the NIH until 1988, when President Reagan’s administration imposed a moratorium on such funding.
Much fetal tissue research remained unaffected by the moratorium, which continued under the Bush administration. The National Committee for a Human Life Amendment observed:
“Since the Moratorium took effect, NIH has spent more than $23.4 million to support 295 research projects involving human fetal tissue.”
As the old reporters’ saw goes, “Follow the money.” During the 1980s and early 90s, research pressed on in a number of areas.
ONE OF THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL: AT LOMA LINDA UNIVERSITY
One of the most controversial programs of the 1980s was that of Loma Linda University Medical Center, who chose to “harvest” the organs of [live] infants with some or most of their brains missing.
The harvesting did, of course, cause the death of such infants; but, since these infants did not in Loma Linda’s opinion qualify for personhood, their organs were considered fair game. In 1988 the University gave up the program—but not for moral reasons: The transplants didn’t work.
LOMA LINDA RESEARCH CONTINUES
Loma Linda’s, and other American, fetal research does have a Chinese connection. As Loma Linda’s Medical Center notes in an Internet post:
“A fetal brain bank has been established at Hua Shan Hospital, where fetal brain tissue is held in cryogenic [super cold] preservation as part of a long range basic sciences research program. Parkinson’s is only one of many potential uses for the tissue samples.”
The [LLU] Internet post goes on to note that, for qualified doctors, “potential withdrawals” are available from the Chinese “brain bank.”
In addition, seven North American Parkinson’s sufferers were taken to China between 1989 and 1991 for fetal transplants. [About this project of theirs, the LLU post notes:]
“Success was impressive, but the long standing ban on [aborted] fetal tissue research made this kind of surgery impractical in the U.S.”
And Dr. Z.S. Tang, a fetal tissue research pioneer from China’s Shanghai Medical University and Hua Shan Hospital, was a visiting professor at Loma Linda University Medical Center during the summer and fall of 1992.
A Loma Linda doctor, Robert P. Iacono, returned Tang’s visit by doing fetal tissue graft implants in China.
Back in the U.S., in only the third day of his presidency, Bill Clinton repealed the Reagan/Bush ban in order, he said, to “free science and medicine from the grasp of politics” . .
WHY THE INDUSTRY WANTS PARTIAL-BIRTH ABORTIONS
But the industry has continued to research and develop their “product.”
Though many pro-lifers have heard about the newest abortion method, the so-called “D&X” [dilation and extraction, more commonly known as partial-birth abortion], few know that the method is often touted as a superior way to obtain “undamaged” viable fetal tissue. Former abortionist Bernard Nathanson described the technique as used by Swedish doctors harvesting unborns’ brain tissue for treating Parkinson’s disease:
“Pregnant women at 13 to 18 weeks are placed on an operating table, the cervix is dilated, the bag of water is broken, the fetal head is guided into position just above the open cervix, the fetal skull is drilled open and a suction device is placed into the brain . . the brain substance is then suctioned out and placed immediately on ice to preserve its viability, then the fetus is aborted.”
Similar processes, according to Nathanson, are used in procuring fetal pancreas, fetal liquid and fetal thymus . .
WHERE WE ARE HEADED
And finally, the runway is being smoothed for full-blown research on living, fertilized embryos, including those artificially inseminated in the laboratory. If embryos, why not grow fetuses in the lab as well? Scientists could then replace laboratory rats with a superior “product” more closely related to the human species.
When, in late 1994, an NIH panel recommended giving the green light to embryo experimentation, First Things observed:
“We are confident that most people, to the extent that they are aware of the Panel’s recommendation, experience an immediate and strong revulsion. This is not to be dismissed as an irrational reaction. It signals a deep, intuitive awareness of lines that must not be crossed if we are to maintain our sometimes fragile hold upon our own humanity.”
Between 7 and 14 million abortions are performed in China each year.
When this story first broke, the major news media in America refused to mention it.
China receives $11-12 million annually from the UN Population Fund and International Planned Parenthood Federation, both of which receive major yearly support from the U.S. Government.
Killing the babies soon means there are more old people than younger ones. China is becoming top-heavy in elderly people. Killing the old ones will be the next step.

Is It Unbelievable That the Chinese Government would go to any length
to destroy all evidence if these were true occurrences since our
presidents and businesses such as Walmart support them ?

The following is the text of an article which originally appeared in the Hong Kong Eastern Express on April 12, 1995. For more information, contact Bruce Gilley at The Eastern Express in Hong Kong, telephone 011-852-27071111, or fax 011-852-27071122.
No one could accuse The Chinese of being squeamish about the things they eat - monkeys' brains, owls' eyes, bears' paws and deep fried scorpions are all items on The menu. But most dishes revered as national favorites sound as harmless as boiled rice when compared to the latest pint de jour allegedly gaining favor in Shenzhen - human fetus. Rumors that dead embryos were being used as dietary supplements started to spread early last year with reports that some doctors in Shenzhen hospitals were eating dead fetuses after carrying out abortions. The doctors allegedly defended their actions by saying the embryos were good for their skin and general health.
A trend was set and soon reports circulated that doctors in the city were promoting fetuses as a human tonic. Hospital cleaning women were seen fighting each other to take the treasured human remains home. Last month, reporters from EastWeek - a sister publication of Eastern Express - went to Shenzhen to see if the rumors could be substantiated. On March 7, a reporter entered the state-run Shenzhen Heath Center for Women and Children feigning illness and asked a female doctor for a fetus. The doctor said the department was out of stock but to come again.
The next day the reporter returned at lunch time. The doctor eventually emerged from the operating theatre holding a fist size glass bottle stuffed with thumbsized fetuses.
She said: "There are 10 fetuses here, all aborted this morning. You can take them. We are a state hospital and don't charge anything.
"Normally, we doctors take them home to eat - all free. Since you don't look well, you can take them."
Not every state hospital is as generous with its dead embryos as the Health Center for Women and Children. At the Shenzhen People's Hospital, for example, the reporter was in for a surprise.
When a Ms. Yang, the head nurse, was asked for fetuses, she looked anxious and asked other staff to leave. After closing the door, she asked the undercover buyer in a low voice: "Where did you (get to) know that we sell fetuses?"
The reporter answered: "A doctor friend in Hong Kong told me."
"Who? What is his/her name?" The reporter was not prepared for this line of questioning and could not come up with a name. Yang told him that fetuses were only for sale within the hospital, and were not for public purchase. She added that some staff would, however, sell the fetuses on to Hong Kong buyers.
The reporter learned that the going rate for a fetus was $10 but when the merchandise was in short supply, the price could go up to $20. But these prices are pin money compared to those set by private clinics, which are said to make a fortune selling fetuses. One chap on Bong Men Lao Street charges $300 for one fetus. The person in charge of the clinic is a man in his 60's. When he saw the ailing reporter, he offered to take an order for fetuses that had reached full-term and which, it is claimed, contain the best healing properties. When a female doctor named Yang - no relation - of Sin Hua clinic was asked whether fetuses were edible, she said emphatically: "Of course they are. They are even better than placentas.
"They can make your skin smoother, your body stronger and are good for kidneys. When I was in an army hospital in Jiangti province, I often brought fetuses home. They were pink, like little mice, with hands and feet. Normally, I buy some pork to make soup (with the fetuses added). I know they are human beings, and (eating them) feels disgusting. But at that time, it was already very popular."
A Mr. Cheng from Hong Kong claims he has been eating fetus soup for more than six months. To begin, the man, in his 40's, would make the trip to Shenzhen frequently for business and was introduced to fetuses by friends. He says he met a number of professors and doctors in government hospitals who helped him buy the fetuses. "At first, I felt uncomfortable, but doctors said the substances in fetuses could help cure my asthma. I started taking them and gradually, the asthma disappeared," Cheng said.
Now, Cheng only eats fetuses occasionally to top up his treatment, but there was a time when he made regular cross border trips with the gruesome merchandise. "Everytime [I made the trip], I carried a Thermos flask to Shenzhen and brought the fetuses back to Hong Kong to make soup. If they gave me 20 or 30 at a time, I put them in the refrigerator. I didn't have the soup every day - it depended on the supply.
"Usually, I washed the fetuses clean, and added ginger, orange peel and pork to make soup. After taking it for a while, I felt a lot better and my asthma disappeared. I used to take placenta, but it was not so helpful." When asked if he was concerned about the fetuses containing diseases, Cheng was dismissive. "I bought them from government hospitals. They would check the pregnant women before doing the operations and only sell them to me if there was no problem. Also, I always boil them over high heat which kills any bacteria." Although Cheng has overcome any squeamishness over eating fetus soup, he says he draw the line at consuming whole dead embryos. He also refrains from telling people of his grisly dietary habits.
Zou Qin, 32, a woman from Hubei with the fine skin of a someone several years younger, attributes her well preserved looks to a diet of fetuses. As a doctor at the Lun Hu Clinic, Zou has carried out abortions on several hundred patients. She believes fetuses are highly nutritious and claims to have eaten more than 100 in the past six months. She pulls out a fetus specimen before a reporter and explains the selection criteria. "People normally prefer (fetuses of) young women, and even better, the first baby and a male." She adds: "They are wasted if we don't eat them. The women who receive abortions here don't want the fetuses. Also, the fetuses are already dead [when we eat them]. We don't carry out abortions just to eat the fetuses.
"Before, my sister's children were very weak. I heard that fetuses were good for your health and started taking some to my nephews," Zou says, without remorse. "I wash them with clear water until they look transparent white and then stew them. Making soup is best." But she admits there are drawbacks to this dubious delicacy. "Fetuses are very smelly and not everybody can take the stink," she said. "You can also make meat cakes by mixing fetuses with minced meat but you have to add more ginger and chives to get rid of the smell."
Hong Kong legislator Dr. Tan Siu-tong is surprised that it could be within anyone's capability to overcome the stench of a dead fetus, even if their stomachs are lined with lead. "When all the placental tissue is dead, the smell is awful and is enough to make you feel sick. It is like having a dead mouse in the house," he said.
The fetuses allegedly eaten by the Chinese are all provided by China's extensive abortion services. Last year, doctors in the People's Hospital - the biggest hospital in Shenzhen - carried out more than 7,000 terminations, 509 on Hong Kong women. The Hong Kong Family Planning Association (FPA) estimates that 24 per cent of all abortions on Hong Kong women are performed in the dubious surroundings of a Chinese hospital. A Ms. Li from Hong Kong has had two abortions in Shenzhen but has never heard of people eating fetuses. "But I didn't want the babies, so after the abortions, I just left them with the hospital," she says. "I didn't want to look at them, and I certainly didn't want to keep them. Fetuses of two or three months are just water and blood when they come out. They are so small, how can you eat them?"
Doctors in the territory have responded with disgust and incredulity to stories of people supplementing their diets with fetuses. Many have read articles of fetal cannibalism but none has been able to verify the reports. They are treating the issue with skepticism. Dr. Margaret Kwan, a gynecologist who until two weeks ago held the post of chief executive at the FPA, says: "This is the strangest thing I have ever heard coming out of China. I just hope it is not true."
Dr. Warren Lee, president of the Hong Kong Nutrition Association, is aware of the unsavory rumors. "Eating fetuses is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine and is deeply founded in Chinese folklore. In terms of nutrition, a fetus would be a good source of protein and fats, and there are minerals in bone. But I don't know if eating fetuses is just folklore or more than that," he says. According to Lee, it is conceivable that fetuses are rich in certain hormones that are beneficial to the adult human body, but should this be the case, the fetal matter would have to be converted into an indictable form for best results, as most hormones including the hormone for diabetes, insulin - are broken down in the digestive system before they have a chance to be absorbed by the body.
But Lee suggests that anyone who eats a fetus would be seeking a remedy that is far more elusive than a hormone or mineral. "Some people may think there is also an unidentified substance or chemical that has healing powers, but there is no evidence that this is true." Lee urges people to be wary - "There are people out there who just want to make money and they will come up with all sorts of formulas or substances, which, they say will cure diseases."
As a child, Patrick Yau was fed on human placentas by his mother who worked at a local hospital, but in his current position as a psychologist with the Social Welfare Department he is both repulsed and shocked by the notion of eating fetuses. "As a Catholic, I object to abortions because I believe the fetus is a human life, and I certainly object to eating a dead baby after it has been aborted," he says. Yau concedes that in China, where the one child policy has turned abortions into an acceptable remedy to an unfortunate human blunder, people may have adopted a new outlook on life before birth, such that embryos are stripped of their status as human beings.
But Tang fails to understand how anyone anywhere can convince themselves "that they are just eating an organism when they are actually eating a dead body". "It may not be a formed human being, but when they think about it most people would think: 'Ugh! No, I can't eat that.' I don't think civilized people with an education could do that sort of thing."
Dr. Wong, a Hong Kong doctor who practices Western medicine, thinks only the ignorant would eat human fetuses. He explains that fetuses contain mucoploysaccharide, which is beneficial to the metabolism, but states that it can be found in a lot of other food - Chinese doctor Chu Ho-Ting agrees that there is no place for fetuses in medicine, and suggests that it might even be unhealthy if the pregnant woman was infected by disease.
"Most bacteria can be killed under 100 degree heat but some require 400 degrees. Some people believe eating fetuses can strengthen the immunity of the human body against diseases, but this is wrong. Although fetuses contain protein, they are not as nutritious as placenta, which contains different kinds of nutrients. But even placenta has to be taken with other Chinese herbs."

I Love My Radio D.J's!!!!!
Great story today that I heard today listening to my radio station online cause they cut out the commercials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I wanted to hear talking, I would turn it over to talk radio, like that is ever going to happen with me....Not into politics at allllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please don't make me hurl.... (eyeroll of extreme boredom at the very mention of politics....) I heard one of the dj's talking about a friend of his went to Afganistan and served on a Mission Trip, and handed out like knitted blankets and hats to the kids there in Afganistan, and other families...He said that he got soo inspired by that, that he tried to learn knitting over the Christmas holiday...It didn't look much like knitting, more like a bunch of knotted mess. They were laughing about it, and it got me to laughing cause I went all over the world to try and learn that, Italy, I tried more than once, don't put me with a SMOKER, and expect me to keep quiet about it when they try and talk to me and all I smell on their breath is very strong nicotine and coughing like crazy....So that was a flop, no more of that for me....Japan, I tried learning from our Life Consultant that came to my work to also work with the kids..I kind of picked it up, but still frustrating to me, and I ended up throwing the entire thing away...Then I moved back home this last year, jumped in one class after another, and learned crocheting in less than 5 minutes and have been doing it ever since... I told all this to the dj over the radio on Facebook, and I'm sure they got a kick out of it because I'm so overly dramatic every time I tell anything...I was just giving some insight that he wasn't the only one who had difficulty with knitting....I tried it more than once, it wasn't happening for me...I did more fighting with the thing than enjoying it...My friend tried it, same thing....So I'm glad I'm not alone on this knitting issue...I shared with him that I crocheted several items and included them in an entire box of toys and sent the whole thing to St. Jude Children's Hospital over this Christmas, so I understood getting inspired wanting to learn how to learn something new....Once you learn it, you can't seem to stop and want to keep blessing people with your talents...I've always gotten along perfect with radio dj's cause we're both into music and can talk about certain songs and the music bands...So I'm glad there are others out there who have the same thoughts as I do reaching out to other countries that everyone else seems to snub for some reason just because of differences between us...I would sooo love to be doing that and going on those types of trips than being stuck living on some military base...Let's just see what happens this next year....fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!!

I never get tired of these ever since I'm obsessed with taking showers and the good smelling stuff that comes after a wonderful hot shower!!!!!!!!! I've always got some excuse to visit craft stores and online craft stores on here...that's because I always find something!!! Always remember everyone that "there is really no such thing as too much!!!" got this cutie Suzy's Zoo cross stitch on the Black Friday after Thanksgiving this year. I got it right before Hanukkah and was thrilled to have before all these holidays started...think I will save it for the place ride going up to Anchorage, Alaska...Too sweet for its own good... 0:)My OSU hat looks like an Orange Santa hat with white trim, and then OSU patches all over the front...I don't mind this one either, but the one I found is too cute, and also way too big for me!!! I think I'll wear it on New Years for a laugh when I go celebrate with others in our marvelous happenin' downtown area...OSU is my forever University...miss it so much now and I haven't even moved yet...great memories though and still thrilled to pieces that I made it through a whole year of classes staying at the top the whole time...

Merry Christmas 2011!!
OMG, if one more freaking person tells me to "SMILE" once more, they are going to wake up sometime in 2012 not remembering what part of the world they are in...We don't have snow, the sun won't go away, it's been out since like 6am today, my husband is in Korea, I'm still not done packing, I've got at least 20+ boxes to mail, I've still got to get my cat registered to fly with me to Alaska, I'm thinking about moving and how we have to move in the middle of winter and still stay in a hotel room for at least 3 weeks until a house becomes avaliable for us to move into. Then I will be the one unloading junk and unpacking everything until about March until everything else gets there in the summer time and I'll be unpacking all over again after getting the first load taken care of and organized for the next 4 years...NO ONE else seems to understand this misery if they haven't been through it, and then they have the nerve to go around and tell me to "SMILE" please. Put me in Rome, Italy, or London, and I"ll be smiling for the rest of my life then no matter what...But with all that garbage on my mind I'm dreading just thinking about it..I think the next person who tells me that, not only will they wake up wondering where the hell they are, but they will also be trying to figure out how on earth to take their false teeth in and out...About 9 more hours to go and I'm suffering through the family thing tonight...UGGHHHHH note to self...don't forget the ipod with earphones..I can at least wear one when they are boring me to death with their talk...chat with you all soon...Merry Christmas/Happy Hanukkah...latkes tonight.. with hummus... :)
Three Trees
Once there were three trees on a hill in the woods. They were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first tree said, "someday I hope to be a treasure chest. I could be filled with gold, silver, and precious gems. I could be decorated with intricate carvings and everyone would see the beauty." Then the second tree said "someday I will be a mighty ship. I will take kings and queens across the waters and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe in me because of the strength of my hull." Finally, the third tree said, "I want to grow to be the tallest and straightest tree in the forest. People will see me on top of the hill and look up to my branches, and think of the heavens and God and how close to them I am reaching. I will be the greastest tree of all time and people will always remember me." After a few years of praying that their dreams would come true, a group of woodsmen came upon the trees. When one came to the first tree he said, "this looks like a strong tree, I think I should be able to sell the wood to a carpenter...." and he began cutting it down. The tree was happy, because he knew that the carpenter would make him into a treasure chest. At the second tree a woodsman said, "this looks like a strong tree, I should be able to sell it to the shipyard." The second tree was happy, because he knew that he was on his way to becoming a mighty ship. When the woodsman came upon the third tree, the tree was frightened because he knew that if they cut him down, his dreams would not come true. One of the woodsmen said, "I don't need anything special from my tree, so I"ll take this one," and he cut it down. When the first tree arrived at the carpenter's, he was made into a feed box for animals. He was placed in a barn and filled with hay. This was not at all what he had prayed for. The second tree was cut and made into a small fishing boat. His dreams of being a mighty ship and carrying kings had come to an end. The third tree was cut into large pieces and left alone in the dark. The years went by, and the trees forgot about their dreams. Then one day, a man and woman came to the barn. She gave birth and they placed the baby in the hay in the feed box that was made from the first tree. The man wished that he could have made a crib for the baby, but the manger would have to do. The tree could feel the importance of this event, and knew that it had held the greatest treasure of all time. Years later, a group of men got into the fishing boat made from the second tree. One of them was tired and went to sleep. While they were out on the water, a great storm arose and the tree didn't think it was strong enough to keep the men safe. The other men woke the sleeping man, and He stood and said "PEACE," and the storm stopped. Then the tree knew that it had carried the King of Kings in its boat. Finally, someone came and got the third tree. It was carried through the streets as the people mocked the man who was carrying it. When they came to a stop, the man was nailed to a tree and raised in the air to die at the top of a a hill. When Sunday came, the tree came to realize that it was strong enough to stand at the top of the hilland be close to God as was possible, because Jesus had been crucified on it. The moral of this story is that when things don't seem to be going your way, always know that God has a plan for you. If you place your trust in Him, He will give you great gifts. Each of the trees got what they wanted, just not in the way they had imagined. We don't always know what God's plans are for us. We just know that His ways are not our ways, but His ways are always Best. God Bless You.**** Merry Christmas everyone.. ♥ ****

It's Christmas Eve!!!!
here's our yearly Christmas Eve poem to all my friends that I know on here...I've been doing this since I lived over in Okinawa, Japan and want to always continue it... :)
"Twas the Night before Christmas"
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer.
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! On, Cupid! on, on Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of Toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.
His eyes-how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself!
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
'Twas The Night Before Jesus Came'
written by Unknown Author
'Twas the night before Jesus came and all through the house
Not a creature was praying, not one in the house.
Their Bibles were lain on the shelf without care
In hopes that Jesus would not come there.
The children were dressing to crawl into bed.
Not once ever kneeling or bowing a head.
And Mom in her rocker with baby on her lap
Was watching the Late Show while I took a nap.
When out of the East there arose such a clatter.
I sprang to my feet to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash!
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
But angels proclaiming that Jesus was here.
With a light like the sun sending forth a bright ray
I knew in a moment this must be THE DAY!
The light of His face made me cover my head
It was Jesus! returning just like He had said.
And though I possessed worldly wisdom and wealth,
I cried when I saw Him in spite of myself.
In the Book of Life which He held in His hand
Was written the name of every saved man.
He spoke not a word as He searched for my name;
When He said "it's not here" my head hung in shame.
The people whose names had been written with love
He gathered to take to His Father above.
With those who were ready He rose without a sound.
While all the rest were left standing around.
I fell to my knees, but it was too late;
I had waited too long and thus sealed my fate.
I stood and I cried as they rose out of sight;
Oh, if only I had been ready tonight.
In the words of this poem the meaning is clear;
The coming of Jesus is drawing near.
There's only one life and when comes the last call
We'll find that the Bible was true after all!!!

Happy Sunday Everyone....
hi all, hope that everyone is doing well and enjoying the holiday season to the greatest extent that you possibly can... I've had a very crazy and emotional year and getting to be on here and just vent things out and release it all truly helps...So in order to be straight with everyone who cares to stop by and actually read my blogs word for word, I truly don't mean to offend anyone, about anything, or demand that anyone else out there absolutely HAS to agree with every single last one of my thoughts and opinions...I just do this for fun really, not to argue, not to debate political issues, not to prove who is better than the other, not to argue over which is the greatest country, religion, best music, movies, places of interest to go, traveling destinations, which one is better to own a dog or a cat, for me it's cats...but anyways, I'm honestly not expecting anyone to listen to me, or think that I am right about anything and everythig that I say on here...it's just for fun, for a laugh now and then, and to get away from thinking about reality for a few moments cause I truly get lost on here when I get to talking on these blogs...Yes, I understand we are all different with different tastes, interests, backgrounds, everything you can think of..I never deliberately mean to offend anyone and I never make hurtful comments towards anyone else just to get that out there...I express frustrations, yes, but I don't verbally attack someone on here by name...It's been said more than once that you aren't going to like everyone, and not everyohne is going to like you...There's millions of books out on that topic, I know because I've researched them, and there were so many I just had to choose about 5 off the first page... That's just me though, I'm into reading psychology stuff...others I know it would bore to pieces...So to each his own... :) not meaning ever to offend anyone or try and get anyone to ever listen to me, this really is just an outlet for me to release everything at the end of the day, and help to build a social network cause I move around so much and it's hard to break into a new group every few years...here, I can just pick up again and again no matter where I'm at in the world... :) hope that is a better understanding now..I"ve been through a lottttt these last 2 months dealing with 2 people in both my husband's family and my family who are about to pass away at anytime, the movers coming and going, still packing and getting things ready to mail in a few weeks, still working on Christmas gifts, and I still have to sleep sometime between all that...I did what I could on my package that I'm sending off to St. Jude Hospital and will send that off this week. So I can't wait to do that...I don't expect to be recognized for it, it's just something I want to do and I love sending things through the mail still...I hope it will be of a greater quantity next year, this was just a last minute decision on my part, but me and my bright ideas I won't give it up once I've thought of it...I"ll take pics of everything before I send it and post on here in the new year...hugsss to everyone... :)
I Need A Pervert Blocker....
I seem to attract these ultimate creeps like magnets no matter where I go...Nope, I don't regret for one minute taking my Acting and Modeling classes, but everyone else seems to notice this as well...It always seems to be these 50'ish year old creeps who are nearing retirement age whenever I am in the prime time of my life..sick sick sick...Since I refuse to stay closed in and do nothing since these wack jobs are just well everywhere nowadays, I braved it out and went for dinner tonight..Wouldn't you know it, that I was surrounded by empty tables, until some guy comes walking in with his wife, only he was wearing something that so got my attention first glance...One of those t shirts like you see EVERYONE up in New York wearing that says "I (insert red heart here) NY. Only instead of that this sicko's said "I (HEART) SM. " ummmm...I'm not sure if everyone knows what that is, but I did right off the bat, and it doesn't stand for "I love sweets and milkshakes." My friend told me what that meant years ago, and I seriously about barfed when I saw that, and just thought who on earth would have the nerve to wear something like that out in public????? to sleep in yeah okay, but that is just a turn-off when someone wears stuff like that in public...And the kicker to the story is that this perv kept leaning around his wife looking over at me....Not only that, but he would get up, and go over to girls completely on the other side and start talking with them. Then come back and stare at me some more...OMG it was just so sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.......I don't know how I always get around these potential child molesters, but I so don't want to be....I then saw in very tiny letters "I Love St. Marco's" let's see, you have to go to St. Marco's SQUARE to catch the ferry to get to Venice over in Italy, so it's either that, or some island that I never care to go to ever cause I'm done forever with the island thing...Still whenever people see something like that, an ISLAND is NOT what they are thinking of...not someone who hits up on every girl in sight and won't stop with the staring thing...I reallly reallyyy wish that I had one of those devices to warn me whenever I got around these perverts like that in public, the thing would start going off and beeping like crazy like car alarms do all the time and malfunction...Then everyone would know what they really are...I think I'll start going out in disguise for the rest of the time that I'm here...to all the perverts out there who are hell bent on hitting up on me everytime I step foot out the door: "get a life puhleeasseeeeeeeeee but just don't include me in it!!!!!!"

New Orleans For New Years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So okay, one thing that I do remember learning in my acting and modeling classes was, "if you can make someone laugh, then you've definitely got their attention..." That is exactly what I did last night, so it's a great feeling honestly without having others sit there and roll their eyes at you everytime you say something....(anyone who is military does this cough cough...gag....choke...vomit....) That is pretty easy for me, so I've no trouble at all with breaking the ice with others since I'm always the new one...I'm about to move again so at least I know I've mastered that technique before I have to start all over again and getting to know others who always seem to have some sort of problem with me...My #1 guess is jealousy, that's what I've been told, and it seems to fit the description, but I've gotten to the point where I simply don't care anymore...I have tooooo much fun already with my friends to worry about what some strangers think of me whom I never even talk to....ahhhhhhhhh I might get to go with my friend to New Orleans, Louisiana for New Years...My most favourite holiday of the entire year....I'm thrilled to pieces that I can't even sleep sometimes...I just love traveling, I don't care where it's to as long as it's not boring or scalding hot...can't wait can't wait can't wait..and I'll get to ring in the New Year with one of my best friends in a totally different state right before I have to move....I'm already packed by the way.... ;)
