Guest guest Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Dear Anne, This is absolutely beautiful! Thankyou so much for sending it. It is just what I needed today and I will be saving it so I can go and read it whenever I may feel the need. I hope you are having a good weekend and feeling well. I am trying to get a few things together in my house before my in-laws come tomorow. It is depressing.I move slower then a turtle and no matter how hard I try it seems nothing gets accomplished. And its also shower day for me. Aghhh. To much to do too lil time. This lifted my spirits. Now back to organizing I go. you take care k. lots of luv cassy  No Strings Attached I've nothing else to offer, so, to you, it's love I'll send. It's nothing that I borrowed and it's nothing that I'd lend. It has no dollar value and it can't be overused. It isn't fragile, so it can't break, though often it's abused. I've given it to others, but each time it's unique. Its meaning's always different; it depends on what you seek. It's something you can store away, to feel when you're in need. But never is it on display, its beauty can't be seen. I'm giving it 'no strings attached,' no costly warranty. Th is love that I am sending has a lifetime guarantee. -author unknown Luv, Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Anne, I am from a family that has had numerous deaths from cancer—both sides. My OB-Gyn told me that I was probably a sitting duck so I had my daughter vaccinated with Gardasil. The benefits far outweigh the side effects for many of us. She has had no effects- a little tenderness at the injection site. I have also had all 4 of my children vaccinated against meningitis. There are many colleges that won’t allow students to live in the dorm without the vaccinations. We had a young man from here in North Texas lose both arms and legs to complications from meningitis while in his freshman year of college.  Just think where we would still be without the polio or measles vaccine.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009  I did not need the measles shot - I had German measles and three day measles - my sons did not have it either - they experiment on army brats a year before the rest of you with the Salk vaccine in Hawaii in the early 50's after a lot of research my sisters all sat down with me and we all came to the same conclusion - gardacil and menatra are not worth the risk to our children given the choice we choose no - we will even get a court order to prevent it - check the research - gardasil will only guard against - 3 of the variants and not always those 3 RE: Anne, I am from a family that has had numerous deaths from cancer—both sides.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009  My son was on the school wrestling team when he was 16. A few days after an “away†meet on the reservation at Wind River, he woke up exceedingly ill – breaking out in tiny red spots and with a change of consciousness. By the time I got him to the emergency room, he was out of his head and the red spots had turned to huge bruises, and he was beginning to “postureâ€.   Nobody at the hospital had any idea what it was. He went into ICU on IV antibiotics and everything else, where he remained for almost a week (by that night, he could no longer walk or hold anything in his hand.)   After 6 days on IV ABs, electrolytes, etc, the lab work finally came back – meningitis. The Drs said the only reason he recovered (there is a bit of residual nerve damage in his fingers and toes, and he had migraines for about a year after) was that this was only the second time in his life he has taken antibiotics – the first time was for an ear infection at the age of 18 months. (I don’t believe in too much Medical Care for kids, either…<G>)   Thank God at the time I’d never heard of it, and didn’t know how many kids are insta-dead or lose limbs….    I believe that if I had kids now, there would have to be a really REALLY strong reason not to vaccinate for meningitis. We all had measles and chicken pox, yep, and we lived. (Most of us, anyway.) But meningitis can kill in less than 24 hours….  2 cents from somebody who ain’t all that into vaccinations either… T in WY " You get a wonderful view from the point of no return...

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Love and hugs, Jackie Subject: To: "MSersLife egroup" <MSersLife >Date: Friday, January 16, 2009, 9:28 AM  Murder at Wal-MartSo, here's the story. . .Tired of constantly being broke & stuck in an unhappy marriage, a young husband decided to solve both problems by taking out a large insurance policy on his wife with himself as the beneficiary, and then arranging to have her killed.A 'friend of a friend' put him in touch with a nefarious dark-side underworld figure who went by the name of 'Artie.'Artie then explained to the husband that his going price for snuffing out a spouse was $5,000.The husband said he was willing to pay that amount, but that he wouldn't have any cash on hand until he could collect his wife's insurance money.Artie insisted on being paid at least something up front, so the man opened his wallet, displaying the single dollar bill that rested inside. Artie sighed, rolled his eyes, & reluctantly agreed to accept the dollar as down payment for the dirty deed.A few days later, Artie followed the man's wife to the local Super Wal-Mart store. There, he surprised her in the produce department & proceeded to strangle her with his gloved hands & as the poor unsuspecting woman drew her last breath & slumped to the floor........The manager of the produce department stumbled unexpectedly onto the murder scene. Unwilling to leave any living witnesses behind, ol' Artie had no choice but to strangle the produce manager as well.However, unknown to Artie, the entire proceedings were captured by the hidden security cameras & observed by the store's security guard, who immediately called the police. Artie was caught & arrested before he could even leave the store.Under intense questioning at the police station, Artie revealed the whole sordid plan, including his unusual financial arrangements with the hapless husband who was also quickly arrested.The next day in the newspaper, the headline declared ...(You're going to hate me for this ... )'ARTIE CHOKES 2 for $1.00 AT WAL-MART!' Oh, quit groaning! I don't write this stuff, I receive it from my warped friends and then send it on to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is comforting as well to know how nutritious and wholesome it is, particularly when prepared with soy milk. The lycopene in tomatoes has gotten attention recently for its ability to protect against prostate cancer and other diseases. If you can't find juicy, ripe Italian or Roma tomatoes, use a high-quality organic canned tomato instead. Food as Medicine A study published in the British Journal of Nutrition revealed that a high dietary intake of tomato products reduced total and LDL cholesterol levels. Ingredients 8 sun-dried tomatoes (not oil-packed) 1 large onion, chopped 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 3 pounds fresh, ripe Italian tomatoes, chopped 1 cup soy milk Salt and black and red pepper to taste 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, basil, or dill, chopped Instructions 1.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009  uh tomatoes are veggies - does this one count RE: Yummy recipe – I looove homemade tomato soup! Rice milk or plain mashed potatoes can be used for thickening for folks who can’t “do†soy…. I add a chopped bell pepper to the simmering stage for mine, and cooked barley to the finished soup for an extra nutrition kick… T in WY"You get a wonderful view from the point of no return..."http://practical-blackwork.blogspot.comhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/liadains_fancies -----Original Message-----From: MSersLife [mailto:MSersLife ] On Behalf Of Anne WhitworthSent: Thursday, January 22, 2009 4:35 PMTo: the_Wolfs_Lodge Subject: Creamy Tomato Soup Description Tomato soup is a comfort food for many people.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 That sure is creepyyyy!! A few yrs back something similiar happened to a friend of mine and it turned out to be her ex! He was trying to trick her to get on her page. Was very weird! Never know with myspace. Few wks ago I got a message from some weirdo saying I was beautiful and calling me boo and something else stupid. I just deleted it. Good luck! hugzz cassy I've had a cyber creepy drama happening lately...earlier this week I have five different men email me totally out of the blue on my myspace email, in a space of 2 days...I NEVER get email there, BTW. Of the 5, ALL of them were single fathers, ALL of their wives died in a car crash, 3 of them have first names for first & last (i.e. mike greg, craig henry, and dave clifford) 3 of them are very handsome. 4 of them type in a style that butchers written English, with many typos and horrible punctuation. 3 of them are import/exporters, and are willing to relocate to wherever I am. 2 of them professed undying love in their first email! ALL of them have Yahoo id's and asked me in the first contact to add them to my yahoo list, they were ALL insistent on yahoo-chatting. I KNOW it is a scam, but other then $$ I can't figure out what they want (and will Not get from me) I know the " willing to relocate " is a precursor for " needing $$ to move with " (if I HAD $ to move with, *I* would be the one moving...to Philly...). And if you're into import/export and need $$ to move then you're a piss poor import/exporter! It's just creepy, the whole thing...the one that I did communicate with (the first one, I made the mistake of answering) became instantly demanding, immediately proclaimed himself my " king " and me his " queen " and demanded that I not speak with other men and that I " obey " him. Well you can guess my reaction to THAT. I informed him that I am not a pet and do NOT " obey " ANYONE, and that if I want to talk with another man, I will do so. He says he is from Florida (3 of them are from Florida BTW) but his English is not very good, I know it sounds funny but he types with an accent. It's all just, well...creepy...

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Had one of those when I first signed up to “tribes” – he claimed his father was a wealthy AMERICAN industrialist, his mother a wealthy AMERICAN doctor, and he himself is a wealthy AMERICAN stockbroker – but he used English like a 4th language, and apparently couldn’t read either – he proposed to me in 4 different emails despite the fact that in the first sentence of my profile it says I have been happily married for 25+ years… Finally had to have him blocked, and I changed my profile to state I don’t want to date, I don’t want to marry, I don’t want to have sex, virtual or otherwise, and if anyone sends me a nekkid picture I will make hurtful sarcastic remarks about anatomy and report them for abuse. Been relatively peaceful since. And you forget the one other thing these guys (show of green cards please? Uh-huh, thought not) would want from a single American woman – a quicky marriage to get in or stay in the country. Enjoy the silliness unless it totally creeps you out, have them blocked if it does, but as you discovered you really really shouldn’t answer any of them… in WY " You get a wonderful view from the point of no return...
