A NEW YEAR

Think about this the next time you buy something. I'm just as guilty, however, "We Can Change!"

John Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN)

for 6 am.

While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA)

was perking, he shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN HONG KONG).

He put on a dress shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA),

designer jeans (MADE IN SINGAPORE),

and tennis shoes (MADE IN KOREA).

After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet (MADE IN INDIA),

he sat down with his calculator (MADE IN MEXICO)to see how much he could spend today.

After setting his watch (MADE IN TAIWAN)

to the radio (MADE IN INDIA), he got in his car (MADE IN GERMANY), filled it with GAS (FROM SAUDI ARABIA), and continued his search for a good paying AMERICAN JOB.

At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day, checking his computer (MADE IN MALAYSIA), John decided to relax for a while. He put on his sandals (MADE IN BRAZIL), poured himself a glass of wine (MADE IN FRANCE), and turned on his TV (MADE IN INDONESIA).

...and then he wondered why he couldn't find a good paying job in AMERICA.

AND NOW HE'S HOPING HE CAN GET HELP FROM A PRESIDENT (MADE IN KENYA).

Four months

So what is it like to be a 95% raw vegan for four months?

1. 2 sizes smaller
2. haven't been sick at all.....no colds,no headache,no sore throats, no respiratory problems, NO STOMACH gas pains or other ailments....
3. more energy
4. hardly any muscle aches...i can actually get out of bed and not hurt
5. softer skin
6. enhanced taste buds....(if i taste anything processed or when we eat out,i cannot stand the taste...it is toooooo salty or sweet for me)
7. I can eat as much nuts, seeds, fruit and veggies that i want. No more limitations on the "3 fruits a day" diet or "use imitation chemical sweeteners instead of honey diet". How can anyone limit God's pharmacy of the wonderful fresh nutritious summer fruits!

So what am i missing?
1. nothing, I feel amazing!!!!!!!

Who would have thought!

Wasp Spray

I have a friend who is a receptionist in a church in a high risk
area who was concerned about someone coming into the office on
Monday to rob them when they were counting the collection. She
asked the local police department about using pepper spray and
they recommended to her that she get a can of wasp spray
instead. The wasp spray, they told her, can shoot up to twenty
feet away and is a lot more accurate, while with the pepper
spray they have to get too close to you and could overpower
you. The wasp spray temporarily blinds an attacker until they
get to the hospital for an antidote. She keeps a can on her
desk in the office and it doesn't attract attention from people
like a can of pepper spray would. She also keeps one nearby at
home for home protection. You could also keep it in your car and
it's perfectly legal. Thought this was interesting and might be
of use.

Six months old!

Can't believe Matthew is already 6 months old.

Our new neighbor

Our new neighbor is an alligator living in the creek behind our house.
So now, of all times, Eddie decides he needs to cut the branches sticking out of the water.
The tree fell from our yard during Hurricane Ike.
