Today's Miracle Mind ?

It's so hard to plan a schedule when you're not provided with a work schedule ahead of time, don't you think? Well, at least the wait won't be too long and then he/you will know the schedule he'll have to satisfy. I'm glad he's looking forward to the job and I wish him luck.

You'll keep us informed, right? Now, I'm going to say this...keep your positive attitude and let us do the worrying, ok?

Hey, that's neat!

They'll keep doing tests to see if 70,000 gallons of turpentine will make a rat sick, but they're not sure if they should keep trying to find a cure for AIDS! Hmmm, what EXACTLY happens when a completely shaved caterpillar is exposed to the sun for five straight days, but why should we bother to see if we can eventually find a cure for AIDS? Okay, I'll stop now, I think I've made my point. If I haven't been clear and you can't figure what my opinion is, just let me know.

Well, eye candy does help in a popularity contest, doesn't it?

With so much attention given to gay parties, celebrations, and events in Australia it is easy to assume all is "all right with the world" there. The real situation at hand can not often be seen or sensed through all that seems so positive, but the truth does manage to make it to the surface sometimes. You, Martin, have helped to get that truth out for others to see! It's not good news to share, but it's news that needs to be shared. People everywhere have the right to know and should know the truth.

Hey, this one sounds pretty good.

I hope my hump day is as good as the way yours sounds. So far, it's not close, but there are still quite a few hours left...so I'm still hoping.

Hey, I liked those answers!

I love that "lottery and travel" answer! Oh, yeah, I'd love those things, too!

I understand why you are apologizing, but there really is no need to. You may feel you have mistakenly posted something or caused discomfort unintentionally, but you DID STATE that you were sharing an email that you received. The information that was presented and was in question was somebody else's doing! That's where the blame goes. Your readers know (or should know) that you would not post anything of your own words and position without having first-hand knowledge or doing some research first. (You know what? That email has brought about more trouble than any measure of truth that may be in it. You actually did a favor by bringing it back in the limelight to prove how vicious some people can be so that others can be aware and not believe such things so easily.)

I got this email ages ago. I researched the information and found discrepancies, half-truths, and some likely fabrications. When I commented as such and followed through by informing those who had sent it to me and forwarded it to others, I was bombarded with harrassing emails, not from those I had contacted, but from the originator or one of the originators of the email. What a mess...I was called names that I don't ever care to repeat.

This is just way too funny! It brings joy, laughter and tears to my eyes because it made me remember when I went to a restaurant with my friend, her husband, and my very young godchild. The meal was served. When I reached for my fork, I realized I had no napkin. As I was starting to get up, I mentioned "I need a napkin". That cute, sweet, little girl with the loudest clearest voice said, "Oh, my mom has a napkin right in her pocketbook and she don't need it today!" Blushes all around the table, laughter at all the tables around us!

I'm going to use some of those lines!

Heck, even disregarding my diet won't hurt me that much. There's only two Ben & Jerry's within a reasonable drive from my house, one about a 30 minute ride in one direction and the other about a 30 minute ride in the opposite direction, meaning it would take me an hour to get from one to the other. And, the Baskin-Robbins that was in town closed down, so I'd actually have to search for one. (Something tells me I would have to go some distance to reach it and, if there is another one, it won't be a close drive to get to it.)
