&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:13.5pt;color:navy;font-family:'Verdana', 'sans-serif'"&gt;A blind girl hated herself because she was blind.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend.&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;He was always there for her.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She told her boyfriend, &amp;quot;If I could only see the world,&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;I will marry you.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;He asked her,'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;marry him.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote a note to her&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, before they were yours,&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;they were mine. '&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:navy;font-family:'Verdana', 'sans-serif'"&gt;This is how the human brain often works when our 'status changes'.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas.  They sure look good.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Fine. Gittin' stronger alla' time.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Good. Anything I can help you with?' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'No, Sir. Jus' admirin' them peas.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Would you like take some home?' asked Mr. Miller. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'All I got's my prize marble here.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Is that right? Let me see it' said Miller. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Here 'tis. She's a dandy.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'I can see that. Hmmmmm, only thing is this one is blue and I sort of go for red. Do you have a red one like this at home?' the store owner asked. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Not zackley but almost.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Tell you what. Take this sack of peas home with you and next trip this way let me look at that red marble', Mr. Miller told the boy. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, came over to help me. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With a smile said, 'There are two other boys like him in our community, all three are in very poor circumstances.  Jim just loves to bargain with them for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When they come back with their red marbles, and they always do, he decides he doesn't like red after all and he sends them home with a bag of produce for a green marble or an orange one, when they come on their next trip to the store.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I left the store smiling to myself, impressed with this man. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A short time later I moved to &lt;span style="border-bottom:#0066cc 1px dashed"&gt;Colorado&lt;/span&gt; , but I never forgot the story of this man, the boys, and their bartering for marbles. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Several years went by, each more rapid than the previous one. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just recently I had occasion to visit some old friends in that Idaho community and while I was there learned that Mr. Miller had died.. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They were having his visitation that evening and knowing my friends wanted to go, I agreed to accompany them. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Upon arrival at the mortuary we fell into line to meet the relatives of the deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ahead of us in line were three young men. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;One was in an army uniform and the other two wore nice haircuts, dark suits and white shirts...all very professional looking. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and smiling by her husband's casket. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Each of the young men hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke briefly with her and moved on to the casket. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Her misty light blue eyes followed them as, one by one, each young man stopped briefly and placed his own warm hand over the cold pale hand in the casket. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Each left the mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller.  I told her who I was and reminded her of the story from those many years ago and what she had told me about her husband's bartering for marbles. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With her eyes glistening, she took my hand and led me to the casket. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about.  They just told me how they appreciated the things Jim 'traded' them. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Now, at last, when Jim could not change his mind about color or size....they came to pay their debt.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world,' she confided, 'but right now, Jim would consider himself the richest man in &lt;span style="background:none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%;border-bottom:#0066cc 1px dashed"&gt;Idaho&lt;/span&gt; '. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With loving gentleness she lifted the lifeless fingers of her deceased husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Moral : We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds.  Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Today I wish you a day of ordinary miracles ~ A fresh pot of coffee you didn't make yourself. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;An unexpected phone call from an old friend. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Green stoplights on your way to work. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The fastest line at the grocery store. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A good sing-along song on the radio. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Your keys found right where you left them. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Send this to the people you'll never forget. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I just Did... &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you don't send it to anyone, it means you are in way too much of a hurry to even notice the ordinary miracles when they occur. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It's not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=-1767336737453557987&amp;page=RSS%3a+Red+Marbles&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=mikesblogginganddogging"&gt;</description><comments>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!718.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!718.entry</guid><pubDate>Thu, 17 Apr 2008 15:22:32 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!718/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!718.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2008-04-17T15:22:32Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Free speech must be free for everyone</title><link>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!717.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style="color:#003399"&gt;&lt;a title="http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/wichman.asp" href="http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/wichman.asp" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;font color="#0068cf"&gt;http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/wichman.asp&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; Wichman sent an e-mail to the Muslim Student's Association. &lt;span&gt;&lt;font face=Arial size=2&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;The e-mail was in response to the students' protest &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;of the Danish cartoons &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;that portrayed the Prophet Muhammad as a terrorist.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; The group had complained the cartoons were &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; Enter Professor Wichman. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;In his e-mail, he said the following:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; Dear Moslem Association,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; As a professor of Mechanical Engineering here at MSU&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; I intend to protest your protest. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;I am offended not by cartoons, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;but by more mundane things like beheadings of civilians,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; cowardly attacks on public buildings, suicide murders,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; murders of Catholic priests &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;(the latest in Turkey ), &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;burnings of Christian churches, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;the continued persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt , &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;the imposition of Sharia law on non-Muslims, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;the rapes of Scandinavian girls and women&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; (called 'whores' in your culture), &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;the murder of film directors in Holland, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;and the rioting and looting in Paris France. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;This is what offends me, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;a soft-spoken person and academic, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;and many, many of my colleagues. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;I counsel you dissatisfied, aggressive, brutal, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;and uncivilized slave-trading Moslems&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; to be very aware of this as you proceed &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;with your infantile 'protests.' &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;If you do not like the values of the West &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;- see the 1st Amendment -&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; you are free to leave. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;I hope for God's sake &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;that most of you choose that option&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=navy&gt;&lt;span style="color:navy"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; Please return to your ancestral homelands &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;and build them up yourselves instead of troubling Americans. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;Cordially, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;I. S. Wichman&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; Professor of Mechanical Engineering &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;As you can imagine,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; the Muslim group at the university didn't like this too well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; They're demanding that Wichman be reprimanded &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;and the university impose mandatory diversity training for faculty &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;and mandate a seminar on hate and discrimination for all freshmen. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;background:yellow;color:black"&gt;Now the local chapter of CAIR has jumped into the fray&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black&gt;&lt;span style="color:black"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;apparently doesn't believe that the good professor &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;had the right to express his opinion. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;For its part,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; the university is standing its ground &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;in support of Professor Wichman, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;saying the e-mail was private, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;and they don't intend to publicly condemn his remarks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial   Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;============================================================&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; Send this to your friends, and ask them to do the same. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;Tell them to keep passing it around until the whole country gets it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow"&gt;We are in a war. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;background:yellow;color:black"&gt;This political correctness crap is getting old and killing us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black&gt;&lt;span style="color:black"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt;If you agree with this,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align:center" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Arial Black" color=black size=3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;color:black"&gt; please send it to all your friends.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=-1767336737453557987&amp;page=RSS%3a+Free+speech+must+be+free+for+everyone&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=mikesblogginganddogging"&gt;</description><comments>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!717.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!717.entry</guid><pubDate>Wed, 16 Apr 2008 21:51:27 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!717/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!717.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2008-04-16T21:51:27Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Life's journey and arrival</title><link>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!716.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:maroon;font-family:Papyrus"&gt;&lt;font size=5&gt;&amp;quot;Life is not a journey to the grave with the expectation of arriving safely in a&lt;br&gt;pretty and well preserved body;  but rather to 'skid in' broadside,&lt;br&gt;thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow!

humankind?  Why is it we want to dominate, rule and control each other on a societal basis?  We can no longer be protectionists, for surely it is a global economy.  I understand America wanting to continue to be number one, numero uno, but is it sustainable given that we are not the country with the most people?  Is creativity limited to being American or can you be Chinese and be creative or Indian?  I am certainly not against my home country, but open to exploring what the world can accomplish when all work together to make things better.  We came from England to be free, but the scars of being under a monarchy remained and we killed Indians at random and did worse that anything we read about in today's papers?  We still do it but I guess now we add ina pinch of war dignity in that we say we treat prisoners right.  War is about killing human beings is it not?  One people, one world... how do we work towards peace when the bully who carries the biggest stick makes the rules.  Dignified people using kind and empathetic techniques will prevail if we all work together.  Words get things done, so speak up my brothers and sisters, do not sit by idlely please.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img

power of words.  Words have the power to help or to hurt, to harm or to heal, to give or to take.  As a general rule I like to believe that the words that leave my life be of the uplifting sort, but as I stop to meditate upon previous days, weeks and months, I find myself of the negative sort.  Why do I do this when I do not want to do this, say these things that are hurtful and ugly.  Reactionary words generally hurt, at least in my expereience.  When I am not in a good place I say hurtful things.  The words that have been the worst, well those, though I wish it weren't so have gone to the very ones that I love the most and who love me the most.    I ask forgiveness, but the words have gone forth and even asking forgiveness it is too late.  Few erase the chalkboard completely, including myself.  I want to be a person who says only good things, lifts instead of tearing down, but how to get around when I am down or hurt or being attacked to not respond in kind.  TO never say another negative word, is it even possible?  Today my prayer is for my mouth connector to be washed between my brain and my tongue.  Stop!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img

Obama</title><link>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!637.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;I want to begin by saying I am a lifetime Republican... now with that I immediately prejudice some (most).  I am a man with a heart, a strong man who believes in cause and purpose, driven by vision of things as they get better.  I am a man of many words, but more importantly I am a man of action.  I am judgemental, critical, forgiving, kind, compassionate and loving.  I am becoming much more patient than I was yesterday, a week ago or even a year ago. I trust way too easily and share way more than I ever should according to most.  I want my kids to succeed and help society and humankind.  I want to be able to maintain my large belly and have a nice roof over my head.  I want to love my wife without interferance and assist her in obtaining her life goals in whatever fashion I am capable of.  I have recently changed my party affiliation to Democrat.  The only reason for this is so I can vote for Barack Obama.  There is something about him, a feeling I get inside, that he offers change and hope in that change.  He has BIG visions.  He is intelligent, swift and very articulate.  He is kind, compasionate and in touch with humanityh, not judged by color or race.  He believes in equality based upon our staure as a human being, not wealth, where we went to school or how much we earn.  He believes in helping folks and also in keeping his commitments.  I am not easily swain from one thing to another unless I can really feel something in my gut, I am a real feeler, but mostly overridden by analysis.  I read Audacity of Hope and also Dreams from my father and two other books on him.  I AM IMPRESSED!  I believe he will be our point in history where at least for a while, we took a break from the &amp;quot;brake and conquer mentality&amp;quot; and actully thought about ourselves in a more kind way.  Anyways, we are free at all times to do as we please and I ask you to please consider Barack Obama as our next President.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=-1767336737453557987&amp;page=RSS%3a+Barack+Obama&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=mikesblogginganddogging"&gt;</description><comments>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!637.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!637.entry</guid><pubDate>Thu, 27 Mar 2008 16:16:34 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!637/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!637.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2008-03-27T16:35:18Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Just a prayer</title><link>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!619.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;Today Lord I am before you as every day I stand before you.  I feel weak, downtrodden, yet know you are  God and in control.  I am thankful for so much, so much that you have given me, in fact acknowledging that without you Jesus, I would not be alive or have knowledge.  At times I am regretful of how you made me and I know this is wrong.  You made me special and I feel special, yet at times I wish I was just simple, a &amp;quot;joe smo&amp;quot; going about life without much thought.  I do not mean to demean.  You said wisdom cries out from the street corners for those who will look and listen and I do.  BUT, you also said with much wisdom comes much sorrow and lately I am sorrowful.  Mainly as you know over my partner who died and his wife attacking me as she has and forcing me to waste money on a lawsuit where before you I have done nothing differently than when her husband was alive.  Yesterday I was in the offices and saw the eagles I had made in Roger's rememberance and for a moment I caught myself not liking him and thinking evil of him, but he was not evil to me, he was a great older brother of whom I loved deeply.  We have both experienced loss of a great companion, but never would I have hurt her and did nothing like she claims.  Hopefully her eyes will open before she expends all the insurance money on attorneys who are robbing her rather than on the things Roger would have wanted for her.  There is no happiness in this, but Lord I asked on the death bed as You requested and I guess when the answer was no I should have had suspisions then of how I would be attacked by a non believer.  All children are Yours and without You we do not breath nor live.  Help me and thank you that You do and I cannot see it, clear my vision.  My struggles I acknowledge are small in terms of the world, yet to me they are great.  I pray Your strenght and power in here and Your athority and control of everything involving this matter.  Lord thank you for my wife, my childrena and also my near and far extended family.  As I have prayed many times, if it is possible tell my father, Dave and also Roger &amp;quot;Hi!&amp;quot; for me.  I love You and thank you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=-1767336737453557987&amp;page=RSS%3a+Just+a+prayer&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=mikesblogginganddogging"&gt;</description><comments>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!619.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!619.entry</guid><pubDate>Wed, 26 Mar 2008 17:09:40 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!619/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!619.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2008-03-26T17:09:40Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>The artist Dido</title><link>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!618.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;

&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font size=5&gt;Some basics we all should live by&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;I shall honor my father and my mother.I shall not murder.
&lt;p&gt;I not commit adultery, nor shall I pay a person for sex, thereby degrading that person.
&lt;p&gt;I shall not steal.
&lt;p&gt;I shall not bear false witness against a neighbour.
&lt;p&gt;I shall not covet my neighbour or the things of his house; or anything that belongs to your neighbour.
&lt;p&gt;I shall not place myself out to be &amp;quot;higher&amp;quot; than another human being for surely we all eat, sleep, and excrete in the same fashion.
&lt;p&gt;I should not discriminate based upon things that a person has no choice over, such as place of birth, or color of skin, sex or handicap.
&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;There are many more, but this is a fine start to a more peaceful planet!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img

we are sliding into a recession...</title><link>http://mikesblogginganddogging.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!E7792899DD95371D!590.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;Over the past 8 years (less the last two which have been correcting us), we had rampant borrowing against Real Estate with rampant spending following suit.  People using equity to buy cars, toys, other rental properties and on and on.  Many of these people were moved into a house during a time that values were rising fast and those who moved into these homes, did so on the positive note and without thought that this cycle will come to and end as all cycles do.  A lot of these folks plain ol' did not think about the refi potentials in two years or five years depending upon which shifting balloon loan they took out to get in.  Just get in is all they were told by mortgage agents who did not even have licenses or understanading about &amp;quot;no-docs&amp;quot; or no income verification loans that they were writing.  Many of these are now out of work and want our sympathy that they lost their jobs and cannot afford the toys, nor the expensive house any more.  I have no sympathy as someone who holds a broker's license in Real Estate and has &amp;quot;played Real Estate for 20 years now.  In good times you sock away the cash for the lean times, because both come and go.  The bottom line to all of this is greed, greed at teh individual level and greed at teh corporate level top to bottom.  Greed caring all the way out to shareholders who demand 19% returns every year, which honestly are not even near realistic.  Making monry was never meant to be a lotto or a crap shoot.  It is the long slow roadup hill.  Baby boomers seem to have shucked that out the door and the next two generations behind us, well who knows where theya re going, it is surely not long term jobs they are after.  Folks we are in two years inbto a correction that will probably take five to competely get thru and then we can start this whole cycle all over again!   We should all learn from our mistakes.  If you are in the market stay calm and sit thru this, because the market is a long term investment it was not meant nor set up for &amp;quot;day traders.&amp;quot;  For every one you see as a success there are 99 who are not.  The news and CNN are not where we really live it is sensationalizm at its highest and they still sell their commercials.  THink about what we are going to do when all the libraries dissapper and also our daily newspapers.  That is where we are heading folks.  Getting off oil, unless there is a revolution, is 20 -30 years away, so don't kid yourself.  Going green is the next wave industry.  You heard it here first!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img
