  Sometime this year, we taxpayers may again receive an Economic Stimulus payment.
  
  This is a very exciting new program. I will explain it using the Q and A format:
  
  Q. What is an Economic Stimulus payment?
  A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.
  
  Q. Where will the government get this money?
  A. From taxpayers.
  
  Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
  A. Only a smidgen.
  
  Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
  A. The plan is that you will use the money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.
  
  Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China ?
  A. Shut up.
  
  Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the US economy by spending your stimulus check wisely:
  
  * If you spend the stimulus money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China .
  * If you spend it on gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.
  * If you purchase a computer, it will go to India .
  * If you purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico , Honduras and Guatemala .
  * If you buy a car, it will go to Japan .
  * If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan .
  * If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to management bonuses and they will hide it offshore.
  
  Instead, keep the money in America by:
  
  1 spending it at yard sales, or
  2 going to hockey/ball games, or
  3 spending it on prostitutes, or
  4 beer or
  5 tattoos.
  
  (These are the only American businesses still operating in the US ..)
  
  ***
  I'm going to go to a ball game with a tattooed prostitute that I met at a yard sale, and drink beer! Just call me a patriot.

  Take the time to read this and think about it.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  F A M I L Y
  
  I ran into a stranger as he passed by,
  "Oh excuse me please" was my reply.
  
  
  He said, "Please excuse me too;
  I wasn't watching for you."
  
  
  We were very polite, this stranger and I.
  We went on our way and we said good-bye.
  
  
  But at home a different story is told,
  How we treat our loved ones, young and old.
  
  
  Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
  My son stood beside me very still.
  
  
  When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.
  "Move out of the way," I said with a frown.
  
  
  He walked away, his little heart broken.
  I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.
  
  
  While I lay awake in bed,
  God's still small voice came to me and said,
  
  
  "While dealing with a stranger,
  common courtesy you use,
  but the family you love, you seem to abuse.
  
  
  Go and look on the kitchen floor,
  You'll find some flowers there by the door.
  
  
  Those are the flowers he brought for you.
  He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.
  
  
  He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
  you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."
  
  
  By this time, I felt very small,
  And now my tears began to fall.
  
  
  I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
  "Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.
  
  
  "Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
  He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.
  
  
  I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.
  I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."
  
  I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;
  I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
  He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.
  I love you anyway."
  
  
  I said, "Son, I love you too,
  and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."
  
  
  FAMILY
  Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
  that we are working for could easily replace us in
  a matter of days.
  But the family we left behind will feel the loss
  for the rest of their lives.
  
  
  And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
  into work than into our own family,
  an unwise investment indeed,
  don't you think?
  So what is behind the story?
  
  
  Do you know what the word FAMILY means?
  FAMILY = (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU

  One day a woman's husband died, and on that clear, cold morning, in the warmth of their bedroom, the wife was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't "anymore". No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more "just one minute." Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, say"I love you."
  
  So while we have it, it's best we love it, care for it, fix it when it's broken and heal it when it's sick. This is true for marriage.....And old cars... And children with bad habits and report cards, and dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.
  
  Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or a sister-in-law after divorce. There are just some things that make us happy, no matter what.
  
  Life is important, like people we know who are special.. And so, we keep them close!
  
  I received this from someone who thought I was a 'keeper'! Then I sent it to the people I think of in the same way.... Now it's your turn to send this to all those people who are "keepers" in your life, including the person who sent it, if you feel that way. Suppose one morning you never wake up, do all your friends know you love them?
  
  I was thinking...I could die today, tomorrow or next week, and I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed, friendships that needed rekindling or three words needing to be said.
  
  Let every one of your friends know you love them. Even if you think they don't love you back, you would be amazed at what those three little words and a smile J can do. And just in case I'm gone tomorrow.
  
  I LOVE YA!!!
  
  Live today because tomorrow is not promised..

  A little known fact.....
  
  
  The first testicular guard "Cup" was used in Hockey in 1874 and the first helmet was used in 1974.
  
  It took 100 years for men to realize that the brain is also important.

  Once Upon A Time.... Once upon a time there was a bunch of tiny frogs.... who arranged a running competition. The goal was to reach the top of a very high tower. A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the race and cheer on the contestants.... The race began.... Honestly: No one in the crowd really believed that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the tower. You heard statements such as: "Oh, WAY too difficult!!" "They will NEVER make it to the top." or: "Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too high!" The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one.... Except for those, who in a fresh tempo, were climbing higher and higher.. The crowd continued to yell, "It is too difficult!!! No one will make it!" More tiny frogs got tired and gave up.... But ONE continued higher and higher and higher.... This one wouldn't give up! At the end everyone else had given up climbing the tower. Except for the one tiny frog who, after a big effort, was the only one who reached the top! THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to know how this one frog managed to do it? A contestant asked the tiny frog how he had found the strength to succeed and reach the goal? It turned out.... That the winner was DEAF!!!! The wisdom of this story is: Never listen to other people's tendencies to be negative or pessimistic....because they take your most wonderful dreams and wishes away from you -- the ones you have in your heart! Always think of the power words have. (There's life and death in the power of the tongue - Proverbs 18:21.) Because everything you hear and read will affect your actions! Therefore: ALWAYS be.... POSITIVE! And above all: Be DEAF when people tell YOU that you cannot fulfill your dreams! Always think: God and I can do this! Pass this message on to "tiny frogs" you care about. Give them some motivation!!! You have been Tagged by the Froggy, which means you are a great friend!! If you fall down 10 times, Stand up 10 times.
