Where did the term "Goody Two-Shoes" come from?
Why in the world do we use the phrase "happy as a
clam"? Are clams happy?

ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -
--------------
Is Kwanza celebrated in Africa?
Nope. It's based on principles held by many African
families, but it's an American holiday.
Why do we say we're "under the weather" when we're sick?
There are several explanations for this phrase. The most
common is that it refers to the belief that the weather
influences or causes illness. Another theory is that it
was originally a nautical term, "under the weather
bow," which referred to the part of the boat that was
jolted most by the waves and was more apt to
promote seasickness.

Here's To Think On ...
by Ken Darby
-----------------
For All Things - A Season!
A parish priest was being honored at a dinner on the
25th anniversary of his arrival in that parish. A leading
local politician, who was a member of the congregation,
was chosen to make the presentation and give
a little speech at the dinner, but he was delayed in
traffic. Sooo.....the priest decided to say his own few
words while they waited.
"You will understand," he said, "the seal of the
confessional, can never be broken. However, I got
my first impressions of this parish from the first confession
I heard here. I can only hint vaguely about this, but
when I came here 25 years ago, I thought I had been
assigned to a terrible place. The very first chap who
entered my confessional told me how he had stolen a
television set and, when stopped by the police, had
almost murdered the officer. Further, he told me he
had embezzled money from his place of business
and had an affair with his boss's wife. I was appalled.
But as the days went on I knew that my people were
not all like that, and I had, indeed come to, a fine
parish full of understanding and loving people."
Just as the priest finished his talk, the politician
arrived full of apologies for being late. He
immediately began to make the presentation
and give his talk.
"I'll never forget the first day our parish priest arrived
in this parish," said the politician. "In fact, I had
the honor of being the first one to go to him in
confession."
Well that did it. Coming in late, not knowing the speech
that was just delivered he went ahead and opened his
mouth to a complete confession to the public.
Had the politician been aware he would, of course,
altered his speech. Yet he should have been aware of
something else too. He should have known that for all
things there is a season.
Men surprise me sometimes. They do things they know
are wrong and they sincerely think they will get away
with it. Few there are who are wise enough to know the
law "As ye sow, so shall ye reap." Most of us today know
that law by other words such as "The chickens you send
out are the chickens that come home to roost" or "What
goes around, comes around."
In the joke above, the politician was not subject to a
conspiracy of events he unwittingly stumbled into. It was
simply and merely the continued and always active law
that ensures each of us gets what we give.
What it all means is that sooner or later, somehow or
other a man's deeds are always found out - always. For
everything there is a season.
That a person is not caught at the instant an offense
occurs is no sign that one will get away with it. Months,
even years can go by without public knowledge of a
persons acts, yet, one day it will be revealed.
The worst part, of course, and this is where misdeeds
cost, is the guilty conscience one carries with him.
Because that is emotionally charged it gets buried deep
in the subconscious. That guilt will sit there to affect a
person's life in negative ways a person will not even see.
Let it be known it will cause one to pay dearly for
misdeeds one wants to keep secret.
However, the politician opened his own mouth to reveal
truth. He should have known that...

To Be Vaccinated Or
Not To Be Vaccinated…
PART 2 of 13
If you are healthy, chances are the virus will be met with
resistance from one of your body's strong defense
mechanisms... it's immune system. However, if your immune
system is not strong, through chronic health problems,
or other challenges, you won't have enough help in the
form of anti-oxidants to counteract the virus. Thus it finds
a friendly environment and starts it growth ... incubation
period. This can take from one to four days. In the meantime,
you, not realizing you are carrying this germ, breathe in
and out, cough occasionally, and spread the virus to
others. The person(s) closest to you inhale, and the
whole scenario repeats itself, many times over.. I said
these viruses can be carried on droplets, but they can
also be dropped onto a surface, dried out and then be
carries along on air currents. Effectively that means you
don't have to be in the immediate area when the droplet
is exhaled. You could come along a few hours later,
raise some dust with your body movement, and inhale.
And the cycle starts all over. Through this, can you
see the benefit of having proper functioning ventilation
and maybe filters? That's prevention. So ultimately
how would this vaccination prevent the flu? By allowing
your immune system to build up its defense army in
case of exposure. By giving it tiny bits of a potential
flu virus, it recognizes it as an enemy and has the army
ready to overpower it. It means that your body won't
incubate the virus, but instead will repel it.

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 . . . . . . .

Walking some distance away so the leopard
would not feel threatened, Hemno made camp for the
night. It was made the more difficult by the
absence of his knife. He made his fire and then
sat to brood about his day. He had to figure some
way to get his knife and staff back.
He was not altogether pleased with his day.
The momentary thrill and excitement of his hunt
rapidly gave way to the realization he had to be a
better shot with his spear. This made an indelible
impression on his mind and from this day he would
be careful of his throw.
Hemno went to sleep, a fitful sleep, pensive
and thinking. Given his condition he was far too
involved to think about sex, as might be common
with those who have lesser difficulties. Hemno had
to get food now or perish. He well knew he must
keep his spirits up and spend his energies with
the shrewdness of a money lender.
He tossed and turned all night until, finally,
mercifully, sleep was visited upon him. When he
awoke first light was just making itself known in
the east. Hemno stood, stretched, jumped up and
down a couple times and then went to do his
morning toilet chores, in the bushes.
Upon his return he decided to go slowly and
carefully to see the leopard in the tree. As he
got there he could see the leopard was not there.
Neither was the antelope it had caught and hauled
up the tree to eat. A moment of fear ran through
Hemno. He may never see his staff and knife again.
He was temporarily devastated. He walked up to the
tree. And there it was. His staff and knife had
fallen from the tree sometime during the night,
maybe when the cat moved it's prey. All Hemno
could think of was being thankful. He well knew
life may not have gone on long for him without his
staff and knife.
The very first thing he did was untie the
knife from the staff. He put it into his belt and
knew that from now on his knife would be as much
of him as his arms. He would devise a different
method for hunting.
Feeling more safe and secure Hemno walked for
a way parallel to the direction the plains animals
were heading. He located a scrub tree, or rather
bush, and walked over to it for a look. He was
looking for a piece of very hard wood. Taking his
knife he began to cut off a branch of the tree. It
was like iron. It was all he could do to carve
through it with his knife. Finally he was through
and had the branch in his hand. Phew! That was
work, especially for one who had not eaten in two
days.
Sitting he started to carve the branch. He
made a fairly large flat area on one end of the
branch and from that area he proceeded to carve a
pointed object. When he had it finished it was
about 10 to 12 inches long, a flat block like
thing on one end and a very sharp point on the
other. Just back of the point Hemno carved grooves
in the small shaft. These grooves would act like
barbs, preventing the spear head from coming out
of an animal. Then Hemno placed the flat part of
the spear head into the top notch of his staff,
where his knife had been. There he lashed it in
much as he had lashed in his knife. Now he was
ready. Whatever happened now to his spear he well
knew he still had his trusty knife.
That pleased Hemno. He knew this to be one of
the lessons the Serangetti would teach him on his
journey to manhood. He had a sense of
satisfaction. The rumblings in his stomach,
however, soon made him realize the day and his
chores were not over. He had to make a kill and
eat or he would be in trouble.
Re-energized with his new found knowledge he
started his walk again. He spotted a tall tree on
the edge of the plains, about a half mile away. He
walked to it and had an idea. He had seen this
before but wasn't sure how it would work.
Looking at the tree he spotted a branch that
hung out over the plain and it had another branch
coming off it forming a bit of a Y. Hemno had seen
leopards hide in trees like this and wait for game
to casually come under it while grazing. At the
right moment the leopard would fall out of the
tree and onto the animal. That would be the end of
the animal. Hemno decided to copy that trick. He
well knew that if he remained silent and still he
had a good chance for game to come under the tree,
just as he had seen for the leopard.
He climbed the tree and did his best to make
himself comfortable. He waited. The wait lasted
for nearly four hours. It was long, but then there
was an antelope coming, slowly, as it grazed. The
wind was blowing away from the antelope and it saw
no movement that would give it alarm. Hemno ever
so slowly got into a crouch and prepared himself
for the kill.

TODAY'S REPORT:
Today I did some surfing for more databases. I also
picked up a book on how to deal with the media. I'm
hoping it will show me some things to do to get the
media to look at my book. Plus, I was doing some
work for my political friend and for a chap who
wants to put out a CD. Busy.

HA! HA! HA!
A Texan walks into a pub in Ireland and clears his throat
to the crowd of drinkers. He says, "I hear you Irish are a
bunch of hard drinkers. I'll give $500 American dollars to
anybody in here who can drink 10 pints of Guinness
back-to-back." The room is quiet, and no one takes up
the Texan's offer.
One man even leaves. Thirty minutes later the same
gentleman who left shows up and taps the Texan on
the shoulder. "Is your bet still good?" asks the Irishman.
The Texan says yes and asks the bartender to line
up 10 pints of Guinness. Immediately the Irishman
tears into all 10 of the pint glasses, drinking them
all back-to-back.
The other pub patrons cheer as the Texan sits in
amazement.
The Texan gives the Irishman the $500 and says,
"If ya don't mind me askin', where did you go for that
30 minutes you were gone?"
The Irishman replies, "Oh... I had to go to the pub
down the street to see if I could do it first."

"If I die tonight in my sleep:
Let me have hugged and told my children that I love them,
Let me have told my mother how much she is loved and
appreciated,
Let me have helped a friend or better, a stranger,
Let me have worked very hard these past hours in the
name of my personal progress, and,
Let me have gone to sleep with the knowledge that I did
the very best I could do today."
