ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -
--------------

What was the name of the frog in the Bugs Bunny cartoons
that sang and danced only when no one (besides his owner)
was looking?

Michigan J. Frog. Michigan first appeared in "One Froggy
Evening" in 1955. His poor owner, desperate to make money
off the singing and dancing frog, was never able to make him
sing and dance when other people were around. 


Did Wile E. Coyote ever actually catch the Roadrunner?

He did in one cartoon: "Soup or Sonic." Problem is, Wile E.
happened to have been shrunken in that episode and was
too tiny to take advantage of his prey. The miniature Wile E.
grabs onto the Roadrunner's massive (to him) leg and holds
up a sign to the audience that says, "Okay, wise guys, you
always wanted me to catch him. Now what do I do?" There
are rumors of a bootleg cartoon where Wile E. actually
catches the Roadrunner and eats him, but no official cartoon
depicting that event has ever been released by
Warner Brothers.

Just When You Think You're Somebody!
by Ken Darby

Jim Tressell was on vacation with his family in Maine.
When they walked into a movie theater and sat down,
the handful of people there applauded. He thought to
himself, "I can't believe it. People recognize me all
the way up here."

Then a man came over to him and said, "Thanks for
coming. They won't start the movie unless we have
ten paying people or more."


Isn't that the way of life? When you are in a situation where
you are well known, or famous, you expect such things. It
is a little arrogant, of course, but that is how we are built.

It is good to be taken down a notch or two once in a while.
It is good to have those around you not recognize you. The
heart, mind and consciousness seems to falsely think that
being known is a good thing. Yet, if you were to get things
done, live your life in a value filled way, and simply enjoy
life, fame gets in the way.

Take time to figure out who you are. Even if you are
famous, that makes you no better than the next person.
Your position, one of authority, gives you no rights of
ownership over others, nor the right to boss people
around.

Good bosses know that people work much better when
they can see the wisdom of things, and have a keen
knowledge of how important their job is to the firm. A
boss who is a control freak, loses loyalty of his
people, fast.

If you want to build a winning team, lose your need to
be recognized, worshipped, treated like a god. The right
to sign the paychecks does not include the right to be
worshipped. Your expectations of such should be rudely
wrenched out of you.

Respect is earned on a daily and task by task basis.
One wrong move from the top and the whole structure
follows. If you are rude, arrogant, controlling, you will
not build a winning team. Oh! You might gain some points,
get some money, have a brief moment of glory, but your
employees, or those under you will curse you under their
breath all the way. That means they do not willingly work.
Your costs mount dramatically and in the end it will not
be worth it.

So when the hands begin to clap, and they really are
for you, consider well you are really nothing, not worth
the adulation and keep your feet on the ground. Keep
simple, kind and genuine, for in no other way will the
adulation continue, because - - -

COMPUTER TIPS - - -
-------------------------

Windows Me

To control the Automatic Update Process, go to the control
panel and select the "Automatic Updates" icon.
Click it and it will open a dialogue box that will allow three
options. The first is the default, which is why you are getting
the automatic updates.

The second and third options give you the control. The
second option will tell you if an update is available and
allow you to control this. This is nice, but your system
will still access the web to see if an update is available.

The third option. Windows will attempt no
updating or scanning at all. You must manually go to
Microsoft's web site and download any updates.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
PART 7 of 8
Lightheadedness/Dizzy/Eyesight


QUESTION: What could be the cause of my ear bleeding, it
has blead 3 times each time I lost my hearing for about 30
minuites afterwards and this last time it wasn't like blood
coming out, it looked more like orangy water, but I didn't lose
my hearing this time, but I did have a little 3 second episode
afterwards and then it seemed to be drainging in my mouth.
I haven't had any ear ache just the bleeding, this has been
going on for about 6 months.

ANSWER: I trust you have gone to see a specialist by now
and have had major testing such as an MRI and blood work
up done. Your inner ear is very close to the spinal column.
Any opening to the inner ear via a possible hole or fistula, is
concern for major infection. This could lead to serious problems.

Don't fool around with this or self-diagnose those kinds of
signs and symptoms. Six months is a very long and
unacceptable time to wait. You are describing two sources
of fluid, neither of which is "natural" to the body. Please
get some medical attention right away.

THE NET'S BEST KEPT SECRET

<><><><>

THE SAGA OF PINEHILL
by Ken Darby

--------------------------------------
Eloise Henry, age 18 when the story began, and
David Wylie, age 20, were selected, by a
stranger in town, to take a dangerous trip, together.
The idea was that each was to take only the clothes
on their back, and go anywhere in the world where
the stranger took them. They were to be left there
to find their own way home. They had no money,
no identification, and no idea where they were.

Upon their safe return there was a million dollars
waiting in their bank account for them. If one did not
make it that money would go to the survivor. If neither
made it the money would go to their families.

The story deals with their adventures along the way
and leads into the only way they could survive. That was
for Eloise to learn higher law and commit her life to
that end. Along the way she learns how to perform
many a miracle.

The story leads to many friends, many adventures
and many places. As you read on, enjoy. It continues . . . . . . .

The conversation turned to trading and Mazunta and his
men learned this group had been away four weeks now.
They lived further up river from the village.

They said the trading shops were full, just waiting for the
villages each to come in and do some trading. They guessed
that not many had done so yet.

That evening they all sat around the fire and talked until late.
They did not often get an opportunity to visit with other
villagers. There was not much village to village visiting going
on, and all had learned of the "magic" lady and the "magic"
man at that village Mazunta came from.

Because of their use of the term "magic" Mazunta knew they
were a little fearful of his village. Such is the common reaction
on man toward things he of which he knows little.

Mazunta kept quiet about who he was, and as a result, so
did his men.

Soon they all lay down right where they were, to sleep. Each
village appointed a lookout, to ensure no marauders came
in on them while they were asleep. They would change the
guard every so often so all would guard and all would rest.

The following morning the camp stirred early. Each group
loaded up their canoes, said their farewells and were off again.
The group that had already done their trading were struggling
hard against the current.

Mazunta and his villagers moved swiftly toward the trading
town. All was well.

During the evening, Mazunta went apart from the group and
contacted Eloise. All was well with her. They exchanged
greetings and agreed to talk the following night.

Suddenly, as they were moving swiftly down river, Mazunta
became aware of trouble. Leaning toward the nearest man
he told him of his foreboding and told him he was leaving.
The man understood.

Mazunta vanished from the canoe.

He saw immediately the cause for his concern. The traders
they had met up with last night were in trouble. One of their
canoes had tipped and men were in the water, their canoe
drifting quickly away from them.

The piranha had not yet noticed them, neither had the
crocodile. But their load was missing, canoe gone and they
were in trouble.

Mazunta took hold of the canoe and hauled it back to the
men. He took hold of one of the men's hands and lifted him
to the top of the water, from where he could step into the
canoe. The second man was now screaming. The piranha
were eating him. Mazunta quickly took his hand and lifted
him to the top of the water.

The man had a terrible open wound on his side and several
on each leg. He was bleeding badly and screaming, still.
Mazunta looked him straight in the eye. He broadcast love,
and calmness to the man. His gaze was magnetic. The man
looked back at him and calmed.

Mazunta then saw the man as being whole, without wounds
or blemish. That is what the man became.

The other villagers could not believe what they were seeing.
There, on the water was Mazunta, the man with whom they
had shared their fire, and one of their own villagers just
rescued from the river, made whole and now getting into the
empty canoe. The entire thing happened so fast it was
beyond the men, the real truth of what happened.

The next thing Mazunta did was raise the dropped load of
traded goods, dried them and replaced them in the canoe.
The load had, earlier, been top heavy and to one side of the
canoe. On just the right angle in the river, at just the right
time in the paddle stroke, the balance shifted to one side
and the canoe tipped.

When both men were in the canoe, along with the load, had
their paddles and looked as if they could carry on, Mazunta
vanished.

He immediately reappeared in the spot he had vacated in
his own canoe and their journey continued.

The rest of the trip to the trading town was uneventful. None
of his villagers had asked him where he had gone or what
had the difficulty been. They long ago learned he was
capable of doing miraculous things and they had rightly
assumed he had gone to help someone in trouble.

Two wrongs are only the beginning.

If crimefighters fight crime, and firefighters fight fires,
what do freedom fighters fight?

"Ironic isn't it? I no sooner get the closet of my dreams then
my husband comes out of it"

It occurs to me: The prefixes "pro" and "con" are opposites.
Consider, for example, the word "progress."

Anybody with money to burn will easily find someone to
tend the fire.
