I heard from my Dad:
Sometimes some things are so beautiful it hurts.
I heard from my Mom:
Take care of yourself, don't depend on others.
You don't have to be clean to be a good person. Just don't expect a lot of visitors.
Overheard at the supermarket with unruly and obnoxious children in line:
"Best case I can make for abortion."
I can relate to that...do parents have any real idea how repulsive their children can be to others?
Do they even care?
How many people know that the overwhelming majority of problems on this planet stem from OVERPOPULATION????
"Beware the leader who bangs the drums in war to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind.
And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, they will offer up all their rights unto the leader and gladly so.
How do I know ? For this is what I have done. And I am Ceasar."
Have YOU read the "Patriot Act?"
DOCTORS are human beings just like anyone else. Their education may be different, but it doesn't endow them with "powers" beyond that of you or me.
I don't use my ISP email. Years ago it was used for my DH's registration at "freeride.com" but when Freeride went down the tubes, hubby opted out of the email program & that should have protected him from junk mail. So how come I have junk mail on my ISP email?...That's a no-brainer isn't it? Lesson learned...NEVER use an important email address for signing up anywhere any time.
Beware of donating to charities with any personally identifiable information.
I made a donation by personalized check to a humane society and within weeks
I was inundated by solicitations from totally unrelated charities.
