As I stood outside my work place, what a beautiful sight. I truly enjoyed this parade. People were friendly and happy for once! The bands were outrageous, the boats were great to watch however, THE FOOTBALL HELMET WAS THE BEST AS WELL AS THE CHAMPS moving vehicle. Universal pitched in with Homer and Marge, how funny followed by more marching bands and then the ultimate MICKEY AND MINNIE MOUSE. Certainly a hard day's work it was, PRICELESS. Thank you my boss for being so kind this is an afternoon I will carry forever.  I will amend this blog later to add the wonderful pictures which I took. I can't wait to get home to download them and post them on this blog. HAPPY TUESDAY IT WAS HOOORAY FOR THE MIAMI DOLPHINS.

this is certainly a MUST share and oh my, Williams though funny I kinda like HIS plan

HE MADE THIS SPEECH IN   NEW YORK .

The Plan!

Robin Williams, wearing a shirt that says 'I love   New York ' in Arabic.

You gotta love Robin Williams......

Even if he's nuts! Leave it to Robin Williams to come

up with the perfect plan. What we need now

is for our UN Ambassador to stand up and repeat

this message.

Robin Williams' plan...

(Hard to argue with this logic!)

'I see a lot of people yelling for peace

but I have not heard of a plan for peace.

So, here's one plan.'

1) 'The   US  will apologize to the world for

our 'interference' in their affairs, past & present.

You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Tojo, Noriega, Milosevic, Hussein, and the rest of those 'good 'ole' boys',

we will never 'interfere' again.

2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world,

starting with   Germany ,  South Korea ,

the Middle East, and the Philippines.

They don't want us there. We would station troops at our borders. No one allow ed sneaking through holes in the fence.

3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leave We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of whom or where they are. They're illegal!!!   France  will welcome them.

4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 days unless given a special permit!!!! No one from a terrorist nation will be allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself and don't hide here. Asylum would never be available to anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers or 7-11 cashiers.

5) No foreign 'students' over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they don't attend classes, they get a 'D' and it's back home baby.

6) The   US  will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy wise. This will include developing nonpolluting sources of energy but will require a temporary drilli ng of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while

7) Offer   Saudi Arabia  and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for their oil. If they don't like it, we go someplace else. They can go somewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of the wells filling up the storage sites would be enough.)

8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will not 'interfere.' They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them is stolen or given to the army. The people who need it most get very little, if anything.

9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island someplace. We don't need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the building would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.

10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one can call us 'Ugly Americans' any longer. Th e Language we  speak is ENGLISH..learn it...or LEAVE...Now, isn't that a winner of a plan?

'The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and she's yelling, 'you want a piece of me?' '

 

I showered and shaved............. I adjusted my tie.

I got there and sat............. In a pew just in time.

Bowing my head in prayer.......... As I closed my eyes.

I saw the shoe of the man next to me...... Touching my own. I sighed.

With plenty of room on either side....... I thought, 'Why must our soles touch?'

It bothered me, his shoe touching mine... But it didn't bother him much.

A prayer began: 'Our Father'........ I thought, 'This man with the shoes,  has no pride.

They're dusty, worn, and scratched. Even worse, there are holes on the side!'

'Thank You for blessings,' the prayer went on.

The shoe man said A quiet 'Am en.'

I tried to focus on the prayer....... But my thoughts were on his shoes again.
Aren't we supposed to look our best, When walking through that door?

'Well, this certainly isn't it,' I thought, Glancing toward the floor.

Then the prayer was ended........... And the songs of praise began.

The shoe man was certainly loud...... Sounding proud as he sang.

His voice lifted the rafters......... His hands were raised high.

The Lord could surely hear. The shoe man's voice from the sky.

It was time for the offering........ And what I threw in was steep.

I watched as the shoe man reached. Into his pockets so deep.

I saw what was pulled out.......... What the shoe man put in.

Then I heard a soft 'clink' . As when silver hits tin.

The sermon really bored me......... To tears, and that's no lie.

It was the same for the shoe man. .. For tears fell from his eyes.

At the end of the service...... As is the custom here.

We must greet new visitors, And show them all good cheer.

But I felt moved somehow....... And wanted to meet the shoe man.

So after the closing prayer...... I reached over and shook his hand.

He was old and his skin was dark.... And his hair was truly a mess.

But I thanked him for coming......... For being our guest.

He said, 'My names' Charlie..... I'm glad to meet you, my friend.'

There were tears in his eyes....... But he had a large, wide grin.

'Let me explain,' he said......... Wiping tears from his eyes.

'I've been coming here for months.... And you're the first to say 'Hi.''

'I know that my appearance.........'Is not like all the rest.

'But I really do try.................'To always look my best.'

'I always clean and polish my shoes. 'Before my very long walk.

'But by the time I get here.........'They're dirty and dusty, like chalk.'

My heart filled with pain ........... And I swallowed to hide my tears.
As he continued to apologize......... For daring to sit so near.

He said, 'When I get here...........'I know I must look a sight.

'But I thought if I could touch you. 'Then maybe our souls might unite.'

I was silent for a moment........... Knowing whatever was said

Would pale in comparison... I spoke from my heart, not my head.

'Oh, you've touched me,' I said......'And taught me, in part;

'That the best of any man............ 'Is what is found in his heart.'

The rest, I thought, ......... This shoe man will never know.

Like just how thankful I really am... That his dirty old shoe touched my soul.

You are special to me and you have made a difference in my life.

I respect you, and truly cherish you.

May peace find each and everyone this coming year and I pray that with leaving the old year behind will also leave all your sorrows, wows and whatever else trouble your minds. Remember live each day to its fullest and as it were your last because one never knows just how tomorrow will come.  Be blessed all of you here even the ones with nothing good to say.  May one day you repent of your foul mouths and see beyond the acres in your house.

In his arms forever more.  Wow. THIS IS CRIMINAL. IS AN INJUSTICE AND ALL PARTIES MUST PAY FROM THE DIRTBAG MOTHER, BROTHER, MOTHER AND FATHER. HOW SAD THIS STORY ENDS. HOWEVER, I MUST SAY IN A  WAY THIS PRECIOUS CHILD IS IN A BETTER PLACE THEN SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN HERE ON EARTH!!!!

 

GOD BLESS YOU CAYLEE. REST IN PEACE

   

He said to me . . . I don't know why you wear a bra; you've got nothing to put in it.
I said to him . . . You wear pants don't you?

He said to me . . ..... Shall we try swapping positions tonight?
She said . That's a good idea - you stand by the ironing board while I sit on the sofa and fart!

He said to me. ... What have you been doing with all the grocery money I gave you?
I said to him . .....Turn sideways and look in the mirror!

He said to me. ..... Why don't women blink during foreplay?
I said to him .. . They don't have time

He said to me. . How many men does it take to change a roll of toilet paper?
I said to him .. . We don't know; it has never happened.

He said to me. . Why is i t difficult to find men who are sensitive, caring and Good- looking?
I said to him . . . They already have boyfriends.

I said...What do you call a woman who knows where her husband is every night?
He said. . . A widow.

He said to me . . Why are married women heavier than single women?
I said to him . . . Single women come home, see what's in the fridge and go to bed. Married women come home, see what's in bed and go to the fridge.

That's my opinion on this firm representing this woman who just happens to be named Zeneida.  Give me a break!  Someone needs to do a job tract record and see just how stable her working history is to merit the BS claim that this cassey case has affected her ability.  PPPLEASE!  I tell you, I am overwhelmed, and I CAN believe the audacity of this Morgan firm to come up with such a frivolous and ludicrous claim.  Please stop wasting taxpayers money and time.  It is bad enough that this little girl is missing and the focus has become more on BS then trying to get some REAL ANSWERS.

Here's my advice to Zeneida (the one that Morgan is representing) Have your tatoos removed, after all in all business magazines and articles, it is well known THAT EMPLOYERS don't like to hire people that look like they are way out there.  I am sorry but those tacky tatoos all over your body and your dress code makes me wonder "what type of job you have actually held?" But wait, with any luck Morgan will give you a temporary job just to make your case look a bit decent.  Nice try.  I have to wonder how do you people sleep at night?

Good grief.

As I watched the news this morning and review the Cassey case, it occured to me WHO IS THIS BOUNTY HUNTER PADILLA, he looks like a cheap pimp and a knee cracking loan shark.  How did he end up being mixed up with this case?  So I got thinking perhaps Cassey is afraid of him.  Perhaps he is an accomplice of what happened to little Caylee.  Think about it.  Anyone that knows how a "true bounty-hunter" works, they don't have much time to watching news and fiddling around.  Somehow, this guy claims he heard this case in the news (all the way up in CA or Texas or what have you) travels to Orlando JUST TO HELP OUT? I THINK NOT.  I think there's a bigger interest here than the authorities are looking at? Would Padilla submit to a lie detector test to answer questions like Have you ever met Cassey? Have you ever had any dealing with her in the past and/or anyone close to the family?  There's gotta be a connection.  Now 5 months later, we get a utility worker saying he has reported foul smell.  The defense is now abusing this scenario but has anyone stop to think that the remains were removed then put back?  In my opinion, this is not Caylee or at least I pray it is not.  There are a number of reports being reported every day with respect to kidnapping of children and a "black market for organs" in the vicinity of Texas, Mexico and I believe CA.  Why do I get the feeling that these bones will reveal some of those missing children and that Caylee lives.  That someone is indeed hiding this child and the lack of reporters truly investigating this bounty hunter is just bothersome.  He nows where's glasses everytime he is interviewed? Why? because the eyes don't lie.  LETS GET THIS SO WARM AND TENDER MAN WHO TRAVELLED ALL THE WAY HERE BECAUSE "HE FELT SORRY" (like that's the first time I hear a bounty hunter being sorry) GET A LIE DETECTOR TEST DONE.  Only then we can find out the true reason of his unwarranted appearance. On the other hand, it could be that he is connected to Baez' s law firm and is a person they use in other cases.  Sorry, I don't buy the tear jerking story of "I saw the story and felt sorry" Now turning against the family hummmmmmmmmmmm NOT BUYING IT.

Of course, this is just my opinion and only time will tell the truth.

One day, one friend asked another, 'How is it that you are always so happy? You have so much energy, and you never seem to get down.' 
 
With her eyes smiling, she said, 'I know the Secret!' 'What secret is that?' To which she replied, 'I'll tell you all about it, but you have to promise to share the Secret with others.' 

'The Secret is this 'I have learned there is little I can do in my life that will make me truly happy. I must depend on God to make me happy and to meet my needs. When a need arises in my life, I have to trust God to supply according to HIS riches. I have learned most of the time I don't need half of what I think I do. He has never let me down. Since I learned that 'Secret', I am happy.' 

The questioner's first thought was, 'That's too simple!' But upon reflecting over her own life she recalled how she thought a bigger house would make her happy, but it didn't! 
She thought a better paying job would make her happy, but it hadn't. When did she realize her greatest happiness? Sitting on the floor with her grandchildren, playing games, eating pizza or reading a story, a simple gift from God.  

Now you know it too! We can't depend on people to make us happy. Only GOD in His infinite wisdom can do that. Trust HIM! And now I pass the Secret on to you! 
So once you get it, what will you do? YOU have to tell someone the Secret, too! 
That GOD in His wisdom will take care of YOU! But it's not really a secret... e just have to believe it and do it... Really trust God! 

In reading some of these blogs and seeing some hostility and plain insults that are not warranted.  So many people in this faith blog proclaims to know God yatta yatta but yet you go on insulting others and making fun of others is not knowing God.  I felt it would be nice since it's Christmas time to share an this old Secret. Hoping that some of you who read same will come together and stop the senseless insults and bickering and even hatred towards one another.  Remember that life is indeed too short. Every beginning comes with an ending.  I pray that all you bloggers have a Merry Christmas and a Happy, Safe and Proseperous New Years. As all my Jewish friends have their time of atonement, I think us as Christians shall also reconsider some of the aweful thoughts and wishes I have read against other bloggers here.

Well, for what is worth,  I have faith that some of you will come to a halt and rethink before spreading more lies and bad mouthing others, who do not know what's going on and you are doing it behind their backs.  That's what I call being a coward when you speak of another person without their presence so they have no way of defending themselves. So I pray that you and you know who you are will stop and truly repent because our End is coming and the wrath of God to those that wont change their ways will not be pretty.  No matter how big of a house you own; how many pigs and horses you have; and all your money will save you for what's to come.   God Bless Us All.

 

I can't imagine celebrating Christmas without using the word "Christmas" what is wrong with AMERICA TODAY?

 

AT AMAZON, THE Twelve Days of Christmas Holiday. “12 Days of Holiday?” What does that even mean? Besides someone not wanting to say “Christmas,” that is. (Via Mark Steyn). “Holiday” is not, in fact, a synonym for “Christmas.”

UPDATE: Reader Rob Maida writes:

Glenn,

I can’t define “12 Days of Holiday”, but a quick look at Amazon sites in Canada, the UK, France, and Germany show that they have no problem with the dreaded “C”-word (Christmas). Seems it’s only the US site where it’s banned.

Regards,
Rob

P.S. I still love Amazon and really wish they wouldn’t do stuff like this.

Yeah, me too. I did notice that the Amazon.co.uk site is headlined “Best Buys For Your Christmas Stocking.” Meanwhile, reader Kenneth Mitchell writes: “Glenn, I’m Jewish. I don’t ‘do’ Christmas. But my attitude has always been, just because it’s not _my_ birthday, that doesn’t mean that I can’t help friends celebrate!” And Mike Twain writes: “QVC.com is perfectly willing to have a 12 Days of Christmas promotion…then again their target demographic isn’t quite as ’sophisticated’ as Amazon’s.”

Or the QVC marketers are more sophisticated. I mean, I don’t want to go all John Gibson here, but this sort of circumlocution is just lame. If you’re cashing in on Christmas — as all merchants are — you shouldn’t be afraid to say the word.

I'm dreaming of a sincere apology   [Mark Steyn]

Further to my post below about Amazon's "Twelve Days Of Holiday" promotion, a reader complained to them about their decision not to use the word "Christmas" and received by way of response a canned e-mail apologizing instead for their use of the word "Christmas":

Please accept our sincere apologies if you were offended by the use of the word "Christmas" on our website. Our intention in referring to Christmas is to give specific ordering guidance for a specific holiday, not to exclude other faiths.

I wonder if it might be time for Amazon to crank up a computer-generated apology sincerely apologizing if you were offended by receiving the incorrect sincere apology.
