BEFORE YOU FORWARD THAT AMAZING EMAIL

BEFORE you forward that amazing e-mail about the Giant Dog, Brutus, that ate a terrorist and got the Congressional Medal of Honor, or the Elvis sighting in Branson, Missouri, there is a very convenient website you can go to...it's called SNOPES.com. Just go to the website or alternatively type something in your browser like "Brutus army snopes" and you will get a reliable analysis of the email you are about to send out to everyone. It will tell you that it's 100% true, or partially true or false. They will tell you the history behind it such as , this story has been around since the civil war or Jay Leno never said this. Bill Cosby doesn't comment on the things your email is quoting him as saying, etc.

The internet is filled with bullshit. I should know, I wrote some of it. Things get started anonymously and pretty soon, we have found Obama's birth certificate, Pamela Anderson is really a transvestite, and Neil Armstrong admitted that the whole thing was staged in a warehouse in New Jersey. The same is true with medical information. Check the website that is providing the information. If it says WebMD or MAYO Clinic, it is probably true at least this year until we discover that sitting out on a porch does not cure TB like we used to think. If it says ChiroMED Natural healing holistic secrets revealed that the medical profession doesn't want you to know, you may want to look elsewhere.

So thank you all out there for sharing those wonderful stories that you just FORWARD to everyone on your list, thereby putting your reputation on the line..." It came from Larry, it must be true." go to snopes, somehow, and find out..." BS or not BS?" That is the question.

The BOHEMIAN by Renoir, the words are not mine

To take the world as one finds it, the bad with the good, making the best of the present moment—to laugh at Fortune alike whether she be generous or unkind—to spend freely when one has money, and to hope gaily when one has none—to fleet the time carelessly, living for love and art—this is the temper and spirit of the modern Bohemian in his outward and visible aspect. It is a light and graceful philosophy, but it is the Gospel of the Moment, this exoteric phase of the Bohemian religion; and if, in some noble natures, it rises to a bold simplicity and naturalness, it may also lend its butterfly precepts to some very pretty vices and lovable faults, for in Bohemia one may find almost every sin save that of Hypocrisy. ...

His faults are more commonly those of self-indulgence, thoughtlessness, vanity and procrastination, and these usually go hand-in-hand with generosity, love and charity; for it is not enough to be one’s self in Bohemia, one must allow others to be themselves, as well. ...

What, then, is it that makes this mystical empire of Bohemia unique, and what is the charm of its mental fairyland? It is this: there are no roads in all Bohemia! One must choose and find one’s own path, be one’s own self, live one’s own life.

YOUR GRANDCHILDREN ARE COUNTING ON YOU

You know who they are, the weasels who represent everyone but you. They want your money come election time but once they get in office, try to call them and you get some child-labor employee in their office, at best, and if you write you get a form letter that has nothing to do with what you wrote. Don't send these bastards any of your hard earned money. DID THEY SEND YOU MONEY when you were looking for a job?

Anyway, throw the bums out. Congress was not designed to be a lifetime career. If they are in over one term, they forgot they are working for you and think they are entitled to reelection.

ARE WE SERIOUS?

ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL


But some animals are more equal than others. George Orwell was writing about Stalinism but he might as well have been writing about America today. The PIGS are in charge and they take very good care of themselves. The commandments or laws are rewritten to make sure that those in power stay in power, and dissidents are sent away to the glue factory. Just watch how frantically the all Democrat Presidency and Congress tries to hold on to every ounce of power and how those that disagree with them...the Tea Party for example, are all tarred as racists and idiots, who should not be listened to and maybe we need a law to.....

Queen Nancy, upon hearing that there was an organized opposition to the building of the Mosque near Ground Zero, did not call for an investigation into where the money to build the Mosque came from but rather, where the money for the opposition came from. American patriots are a greater threat to the Pigs in Power than the symbolism of a muslim shrine a stone's throw from where muslim terrorists destroyed the World Trade Center and 3000 lives. You can't have a strip club within 1000 feet of a school, but you can have a Muslim Cultural Center next to the crater that used to be a symbol of Western capitalism when EVERY terrorist involved in this attempt to destroy all we believe was a follower of Muhammad. We are now all touchy-feely about freedom of religion and the RIGHT to build a Mosque wherever and whenever. We are falling all over our selves to show the world how "sacred" the Constitution and the Bill of Rights is. We are trying to be a shining light on the top of a hill to nations where they do not allow women to drive, walk outside without being covered head to toe, and if they wink at someone, they get stoned to death. If not all of us Americans, at least the 50% of us in this country who have "boobs" should do whatever you can to repel this organized and codified misogyny and DEMAND that Sharia Law and Burkas are not religion at all but part of an oppressive system that wants to take over your country and stone you to death for wearing a Bikini to the beach or even leaving the house without putting on a Black head to toe Shroud.

The PILGRIMAGE

A man decides to set off in search of the meaning of life. He has heard legend of a great guru who resides on the top of a mountain in the Himalayas. He files to Asia, Hires a driver, goes a thousand miles, and climbs to the top of the rugged and cold mountain where he sees the great one. He crawls on his knees to the foot of the sage and asks "Oh great one, what is the meaning of life?" The guru replies "Life is like a rainbow." The seeker says " you mean I flew half-way around the world, drove a thousand miles over a vast wasteland, and climbed a mountain to hear "Life is like a rainbow?" The guru replied "You mean it isn't?"
