For which holiday do Americans purchase the most candy?
It's not Valentine's Day OR Halloween. Americans purchase
more candy for Easter than for any other holiday.
When did the artist Vincent van Gogh begin to produce art?
Good news for late bloomers. Van Gogh began drawing
when he was already 27 years old.

Trying to keep thePEBBLE out of the clutches of your
spam filters is almost an impossible job. It is like chasing
moonbeams. Every spam filter has a different set of
qualifiers. I have decided I will not chase them.
thePEBBLE has been, is and will continue to be a
highly honorable publication dedicated to serving
our readers. There is no logical reason spam filters
cull it out of your mail, except for the odd word here
or there in an ad, or in a story or article. That is why
I have put thePEBBLE online, to serve those of you who
loyally follow the publication, especially The Saga Of
Pinehill.
I will continue to publish thePEBBLE daily and email
it to you. However, if your spam filter eats it, then you
can read it online.

Here's To Think On ...
with Ken Darby
-----------------
The Social Strata
A busload of politicians were driving down a country road,
when suddenly the bus ran off the road and crashed into
an old farmer's barn.
The old farmer got off his tractor and went to investigate.
Soon he dug a hole and buried the politicians. A few days
later, the local sheriff came out, saw the crashed bus and
asked the old farmer where all the politicians had gone.
The old farmer told him he had buried them.
The sheriff asked the old farmer, "Lordy, were they
ALL dead?"
The old farmer said, "Well, some of them said they weren't,
but you know how them crooked politicians lie."
Well, you know and I know there are good politicians
out there and like every other group all of them get painted
with the same brush a crooked one does.
However, so do you and I. That's right. We are judged by
the company we keep, by the money we apparently have,
by the college we went to, by our religion, by whether or
not your kids had braces on their teeth and by your career.
It is in the nature of man to categorize, pidgeonhole and
judge. Somehow that makes him an authority. Those
people who have a tendency to say it as they see it will
tell you what they think of you, and those who purport to
be more educated will pass judgment and act accordingly,
without telling you, but all will judge you by the
aforementioned precepts. A lot of you will be glad you
aren't a lawyer, or a blond.
While the way in which man judges is wrong, bad, harmful
and with complete bad taste, that is what he does. It is
important for one to keep one's own council, to be strong
in one's own right, to be able to withstand the judgment
gang and carry on with your own life to accomplish the
things you want to do.
Spend no time trying to climb the social ladder, or to
change strata. They won't let you. Spend your time being
you, for it is you who can contribute your talents and
abilities where you want. Spend not your time trying to
outlive the strata in which you find yourself but, instead,
spend it where it will do you the most good.
There is a funny thing that happens when man pays no
attention to the judgment foibles of man. Usually great
things come from the genius who pursues his own path
and that path may or may not coincide with ...

MEDICAL COLUMN - - - -
by Karin Henderson
Mercury / Amalgam Dental Fillings
PART 2 of 8
As I read Dr. McGuires letter, I felt I needed to
share this important information with many more people
than just the Menieres community. This information
about mercury and its affects on health has
far-reaching implications! I wanted to let people know
that they might find some answers and connections to
their health questions with this trustworthy
information.
To begin with, there are two books you NEED to get. The
first one is A Mouth Full of Poison: The Truth about
Mercury Amalgam Fillings, by Dr. Myron Wentz. Dr.
McGuire was the consultant and wrote the Foreword. You
can order this amazing book online at
http://www.mercuryfreenow.com. Dr. Wentz is a
world-renowned microbiologist and immunologist, and is
an internationally recognized pioneer in the
development of human cell culture technology and
infectious disease diagnosis. You have to ask yourself
why someone of his stature and reputation would write
such a scathing description about such a traditional
dental procedure. Simply because he has dedicated his
life to improving the health of mankind.
The next book, soon to be released, is Your Complete
Guide to Mercury Detoxification: How to Safely Remove
Mercury from Your Teeth and Body. Dr. McGuire and Dr.
Wentz are co-authors.
If you have any health challenges that could be related
to chronic mercury poisoning (and believe me there are
many), you could well be finding answers to your
questions and concerns in these books and on the
websites!
As always, this information is only intended to help
educate yourself and help you make informed choices
regarding your health and well being. In fact, with
this information you have what could be called access
to an objective second opinion. I consider this
information to be accurate, trustworthy and completely
backed by scientific research. Providing it to you is
my way of helping you with some practical knowledge,
knowledge that will be useful when you discuss your
next filling with your dentist. (After what I learned
from Dr. McGuire I recommend finding a mercury free
dentist to deal with safely removing your mercury
amalgam fillings and replacing them with non-toxic
fillings.)

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. If they arrived back home, there
would be a million dollars waiting in each
of their bank accounts
The story deals with their adventures along
and leads to the only way they could survive.
The story leads to many friends, many
adventures and many places.
As you read enjoy. It continues . . . . . . .

"Is that why some folks don't make it, because
they are afraid to leave the things they think
they have?"
"That plus they are journeying into what is
the unknown, for them. There are too few examples
around for man to believe, to see, to follow. That
is why man must be able to see through the veil of
simplicity and then follow the leading or the
direction he is pulled on the inside. He must
trust that pulling and follow it. In the heart of
hearts of each man their Maker is calling. Each
must make that decision."
"You mean if thousands lived this way then we
would all want to live this way?"
"It would be far easier. It would seem natural
and therefore one would not be stepping away from
the norm. One would not be traveling a path alone,
there would be many to encourage, aid, lead."
"So, if I make this decision I am a
forerunner. I will have to show others?"
"Only if that circumstance presents itself.
You are not to go out and "spread the word" like a
traveling preacher. Those who are ready will come
to you and at other times you will spot those to
whom you should speak. It is all a very natural
process and it will evolve for you. That is one of
the reasons why you should see yourself projecting
love for 30 feet or more in all directions. It
attracts those who are ready. By the way you can
project this energy as just energy. It will take
on any of the attributes of your thinking. If you
are thinking thoughts of hatred or anger it will
project those thoughts as well. That is why you
must never forget the law "As ye sow, so shall ye
reap." Whatever you project will come back to you,
so place love on that energy beam and only love,
even in the most desperate of situations."
"Will I have to leave home? Will I have to
work all my life for man?"
"No, you will not have to leave your home or
the things you have. No you will not have to work
for man all your life, yet you, having been given
the gift, will want to aid man anytime you are
called. There are many tasks that can be done,
Sharon, most of them you will love and enjoy."
"Like you and the family did when the town
blew up?"
"Yes. Would you have us sit at home and do
nothing when people are in danger and we can
help?"
"No."
"Then neither will you when you are a Master.
You will want to help. You will feel no
obligation. You will push things aside to be able
to help when there is need."
"How about my family, Tim, can I bring them
into higher law?"
"No, you can bring no one who has not
expressed a desire. They, like you now, must make
their own choice and you cannot influence that one
way or the other. They must make their choice
based on their own clear thinking. You cannot
force anyone, or even create circumstances where
you lead them to it. You can only serve as an
example. If your brothers and sister want to
follow you they can. All men are called, few
choose."
"But there will be talk in our house, Tim."
"Of course there will. And you can talk
freely, you just can't 'sell'."
"I understand. Where are your folks? Where is
Tom and Billy?"
"The folks are down visiting Eloise and Tom
and Billy are out somewhere, doing their thing.
Now why did you overcome your fears to come over
here?"
"I...I...I wanted to talk to you. I was afraid
you would have nothing to do with me. After I saw
what happened at church I began to think there
really is something to this. I know you worked
with me before but it wasn't working. Then when
you shunned me I got mad and I was going to get
you. All it did was get me more heartache. I kept
thinking about what you said about the law and as
I looked at my life I saw I was receiving the
punishment I deserved for acting on my angry
thoughts. I know I can think good thoughts and my
life will change but if I can do that then why
don't I go all the way. If my Maker has something
for me then I would be wise to follow. I see you
and your family, then the Strikers and the Whites
and I know this is the right way to live. I know
that deep in my heart, so I want to find the way."
"Good. I will help where I can and I will
watch over you. However, you must remember it is
the teacher that knows when the student is ready.
You will not force my hand into doing things for
which you are not prepared. Yet, in the final
analysis it is you who must make the choice and it
is you who must make the commitment, and that you
can only make unto yourself. I ask you though,
don't do as before where you pay lip service to
it. Make a commitment against which there is no
alternative. Accept nothing less, and stick with
that commitment no matter how you are tested or
for how long."

HA! HA! HA!
Eleven people were hanging on a rope under a helicopter,
ten men and one woman.. The rope was not strong enough
to carry them all, so they decided that one had to leave,
because otherwise they were all going to fall.
They weren't able to name that person, until the woman
gave a very touching speech. She said that she would
voluntarily let go of the rope, because, as a woman, she
was used to giving up everything for her husband and kids,
or for men in general, and was used to always making
sacrifices with little in return. As soon as she finished her
speech, all the men started clapping their hands.......
