Air Bag For The Elderly !

Honest friends I saw it this morning. I am to close to that age to tell you if it is funny or will I be needing one.

Here is the link to a short video, http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/7635225.stm, you watch it then you tell me ??

What will the think of next. Would this go under the leading of "wisdom being increased?"

Enjoy the day. I'm trying to get this contraption strapped to my back!

Should Obama Lose (?)

Dennis Prager had a very troubling commentary on the upcoming election, should one side win. Here are some of his comments.

"Seven weeks before the 2008 presidential election, liberals are warning America that if Barack Obama loses, it is because Americans are racist. Of course, that this means that Democrats (and independents) are racist, since Republicans will vote Republican regardless of the race of the Democrat, is an irony apparently lost on the Democrats making these charges.

Rage over the Iraq War has largely focused on President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney. But if Obama loses, liberal rage will focus on millions of fellow Americans and on American society.

Jack Cafferty of CNN: “The polls remain close. Doesn’t make sense … unless it’s race.”

If Obama loses, it will not be deemed plausible that Americans have again rejected a liberal candidate,"

This is a link to the complete article.

Good Morning !

Monday morning, here I sit completing my second cup of high octane foul black fluid. The week end was relative quite, not even an exciting phone call. Went to dinner Saturday evening with some friends, we sat, we ate, talked and laughed at ourselves and others.
This is one of those times when you look at the screen, yet your mind is going from one place to another and back to a different place. The main topic in my mind over the weekend has been the thought of tolerance or intolerance. Not from the aspect of others to me but my ability to be tolerant to others. Take you pick, religion, politics, food your pick. I do try to give you the privilege to do, eat or believe what you want. One part of Mervi is the idea, point, desire to know, why you do or believe as you do. NO real desire to be combative, just some questions to help Mervi understand you.

All I ask in return is that you allow Mervi to keep his own believes. May I paraphrase Paul, that theologian of the New Testament? Should you eat meat, be careful that you don’t affined that brother who does not eat meat. I will even engage some I know in debate, only those I know who know how to debate and those who can walk away and still be friends!

We are ALL different, looks, speech, native language, how we were raised, where we were raised and on and on. There are so many variances in how we arrived at were we are RIGHT NOW!!

The Bridge


Oh bridge I see
Oh where will you lead?
My steps are not as quick
My steps are not as sure
Please, Oh Bridge, be steady now for me.

Oh bridge I see
Time has brought me here
Time that stands behind and before me
Time that moves me on, where I know not!
Time that has no point of rest, always on the move.

Oh bridge I see
As I move cross your boards
I look beyond your crossing
From shadowy trees which hang low quite field I see.
Yet, I have faith in He who waits. . . .
