What a waste to have record security for New Years party. To stop terrorist? Like they would choose this time to do something knowing security is high?. If, if, they planned something they would chose another day don't you think?
Feeding the birds. Crows, magpies, Quails and the little ones....... Now that we have so much snow I bought bird food for them, as I do every year . Two ducks and that one little bird that have come to the house, is not telling others of his find of food here as it still comes alone. Also save fat, skin etc. for the crows. They remember my face and car too, I love them as they are very smart
My little “eating machine” kitten “Sandy” just loves the entertainment. Watching the show she does not move a muscle, at times her tail given her away. This cat loves oatmeal, apple sauce and many other foods besides cat food. She knows when she can have her snack and comes to tell me so I won’t forget. Twice a day she get soft food added to her dry food ............... She now rolls over like a dog when I ask her, she loves the attention..
A preacher was completing a temperance sermon: with great expression he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river." With even greater emphasis he said, "And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river." And then finally, he said, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river." He sat down. The song leader then stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, "For our closing song, let us sing Hymn # 365: "Shall We Gather at the River." Muldoon lived alone in the Irish countryside with only a pet dog for company. One day the dog died, and Muldoon went to the parish priest and asked, "Father, me dog is dead. Could ya' be saying' a mass for the poor creature?" Father Patrick replied, "I'm afraid not; we cannot have services for an animal in the church. But there are some Baptists down the lane, and there's no tellin' what they believe. Maybe they'll do something for the creature." Muldoon said, "I'll go right away Father. Do ya' think $5,000 is enough to donate to them for the service?" Father Patrick exclaimed, "Sweet Mary, Mother of Jesus! Why did ya' not tell me the dog was Catholic?
Father O'Malley answers the phone. "Hello, is this Father O'Malley?" "It is" "This is the IRS. Can you help us?" "I can" "Do you know a Ted Houlihan?" "I do" "Is he a member of your congregation?" "He is" "Did he donate $10,000 to the church?" "He will".

Every year I am sensitive to be differents before Christmas. The spirit of giving is everywhere that is why many charities are right there to cash in on it all. I have enough address labels to last me for years.............. So many people just feel like giving, too the food bank to do something for the homeless etc. This is good and nothing wrong with that at all..............
Boxing day and the giving spirit is gone....totally gone. It is now ME time, party time................. Love from Jenny

We too had a restaurant for awhile I am sure that when you have happy staff they work better for you and treat the customers with a smile. Everyone needs to feel appreciated
Must say Molly that it is very nice for the company to show their appreciation for your patronage. My hairdresser in also a company but privately owned
My sister living in Holland, told me that every year she gets a gift from her hair dresser and her gardener. Your kidding I told her here it is the other way around. In Holland the gift is saying; Thank you for your patronage. So why do we tip everytime we get out hair done etc. yet feel to give a larger tip at Christmas time?
People can be puzzleling Lol did I spell that right? And being hypocrites to boot We are not "allowed" to say; Eskimo We are not "allowed" to say; Indians Yet we have a minister of Indian affairs etc. How many years did people say; Merry Christmas no one minded.......... I know people who make it a point to say XMas unaware that it means the very same
A girl read her bible at recess and was told this was not allowed Yes I have been told that every month in New York, several streets are cordoned off, to allow the Muslims to pray You figure this out as I can't.... Do you believe for one second that if I were to move to Indonesa, as an example, that the Muslims there would let me tell them what they can and not can do ???
