In this Nov, 5, 2008 file photo, Lelia LaRue, right, shows her father, George Francis, 112, a copy of the morning newspaper with President-elect Barack Obama on the front page, at the Sacramento, Calif. nursing home where Francis lives. Francis, the nation's oldest man who lived through both world wars, man's first walk on the moon and got to vote for the first black president, has died. He was 112. This man who at his prime barely weighed more than 100 pounds, was born June 6, 1896, in New Orleans. As an African-American in the South, he felt the sting of the Jim Crow-era segregation laws in his early life.

CollegeZapps

There are so many high school seniors, getting ready to go to college as soon as they graduate. With the large amount of students that will be applying to colleges, help is needed to get the right information out to the college counselors in time for entrance. You can learn how CollegeZapps can help you apply to college and get your information into the right hands, in time to get noticed. This website can help students for more effectual scholarships and increase their chances of receiving scholarship money. I noticed that several students, had been granted scholarships, when I went to my grand daughter's high school graduation, last year. CollegeZapps is a lot like Turbo-Tax, having applications that are suited to your information and expertise. Only one interview is made and with the information collected CollegeZapps, fills out applications that are sent, to various schools who are interested in your scores. You just print the applications and put them in the mail with your other supplements. They match you with the right schools and you can make contact with those counselors, for further information and to get their attention for your application. You pick from their list of colleges on the Zapps web site and from that you will be given a full, comprehensive interview to complete. So, when getting yourself set up to enter college, this website is one of the best places to get everything going, long before you graduate from high school.

Father Teaches Son.....

One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son
on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing
him how poor people live.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what
would be considered a very poor family.
On their return from their trip, the father asked his son,
'How was the trip?'
'It was great, Dad.'
'Did you see how poor people live?' the father asked.
Oh yeah,' said the son.
So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?' asked the father.
The son answered:
'I saw that we have one dog and they had four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and
they have a creek that has no end.
We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the
stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they
have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields
that go beyond our sight.
We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.
We buy our food, but they grow theirs.
We have walls around our property to protect us, they have
friends to protect them.' The boy's father was speechless.
Then his son added,
'Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are.'

Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder
what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we
have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.

'Life is too short and friends are too few.'

Many business's have a toll free number which enables their customer's to contact them and not have to pay long distance. This gives them the convenience of talking to a customer service representative, if there's a problem or they need to ask a question about a certain product. If your have a service or business and still don't have a toll free number, then it would be important to you to get this right away. Just think of all the business your missing, because customer's don't wish to pay a toll fare.

She Has No Hair........

It's been a couple of months since it happened, and my oldest daughter has started to grow back short hair...........
About 3 months ago, she was having a few too many beers and not being able to find her cigarette lighter, went into the kitchen, turned on a burner and proceeded to lean over and light her cigarette. Suddenly, she realized that her long blonde hair was on fire. When she had finally put it out, Misty realized that she had a mess. So in her beerish stupor..........she got the clippers and cut off all her hair..............now she no longer has long blonde hair, but short light brown hair. Such a waste........not funny either.

Sentenced Friday to as many as 33 years in prison for a hotel armed robbery after a judge rejected his apology and said, "It was much more than stupidity." The 61-year-old football Hall of Famer stood shackled and stone-faced as Judge Jackie Glass rattled off the punishment.

Loosing Our Jobs

Skittish employers slashed 533,000 jobs in November, the most in 34 years, catapulting the unemployment rate to 6.7 percent, dramatic proof the country is careening deeper into recession.

The new figures, released by the Labor Department Friday, showed the crucial employment market deteriorating at an alarmingly rapid clip, and handed Americans some more grim news right before the holidays.

As companies throttled back hiring, the unemployment rate bolted from 6.5 percent in October to 6.7 percent last month, a 15-year high.

Need To Get Out Of Debt........

Getting into debt is much easier than getting out and causes people to go through horrific circumstance. Are you think about bankruptcy, well I don't like it and I’m sure neither do you. Many people have resorted to this type of thing in order to hold on to some of their properties and not have to pay certain debts.
This causes them to have other problems with their credit lines from the time of the court order until the legal terms run out. They are generally in trouble, perhaps missing minimum payments on credit cards, which can cause late charges to mount up. To get out of debt you can consolidate your debts and make payments to one institution, which is then distributed to the other clients, you are in debt to. It’s better to set up a consolidation of your debts and get them paid as best you can, usually it will damage your credit, as your original debt was not paid back in full. This company is here to help you in the only way they can. Contact them today and get a quote for you problems with your finances.

President-elect Barack Obama speaks at a news conference in Chicago, Wednesday. Democrats are growing impatient with President-elect Barack Obama's refusal to inject himself in the major economic crises confronting the country. Obama has sidestepped some policy questions by saying there is only one president at a time. But the dodge is wearing thin. "He's going to have to be more assertive than he's been," House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-Mass., told consumer advocates Thursday. Something's got to give.........

Big trucks and SUVs are among the most appealing to car thieves. In the past few years, big, bold SUVs have become almost synonymous with the success of entertainment and sports stars. You make it big, you buy an Escalade. Or a Hummer. Hopefully, there's money left over to hire a full-time driver who can watch over the car, because these two vehicles are among the most likely to be stolen.

Did You Get Fatter........


Thanksgiving and the other holidays' play havoc on our diets and I for one am having the problem. I love to eat and..........you guessed it.........I love to cook. Everyone comes to my house for Thanksgiving.........that is.......everyone that knows I cook. I've tried to discourage some outsiders' but alas, they still manage to make it to the door.
Since I'm the cook of the main items, I know how the food is going to taste.............therefore, I will make a plate which is "man size"and attempt to eat it. My family says that if there's too much on a plate and I can't eat it all..........then that was a big plate! What a horrible thing for them to say about me...... :(
As time would take it's toll on my body, so did the food. Now the once lithe body is just a short dumpy one. Still I do love to eat and figure, that I only live once and need to be able to enjoy myself as much as possible.........That's my story........and I'm sticking to it!

Terriosts Blamed For Attacks........

Attacks have happened once again, and loss of lives were a horrible scene to all who experienced this tirade. India has been shaken repeatedly by terror attacks blamed on Muslim militants in recent years. A team of FBI agents was ordered to fly to India to investigate the attacks.
Fifteen foreigners, including five Americans, were among the dead. More than 150 people were killed in the violence that began when gunmen attacked 10 sites across India's financial capital Wednesday night.

I Ate Too Much.....


Wow with all the good food we had this year........it was impossible for me to control my eating.......but, since I've had the miserable cold the last week, it's been hard to have an appetite and so it wasn't hard to not be very hungry. I cooked most of the food, so by the time I had finished, I was tired of looking at food anyway. Still I managed to get a large amount of it into my mouth.......which I hear many other people did.......
Come on......now be honest.........how many of you actually controlled your intake, this Thanksgiving?
