What are the Masons?

So how did the fraternity of stonemasons become the
fraternity of secretive men in funny hats?

How many credit cards does the average American have?

The average American has 4.05 credit cards with a total
credit line of $18,810. He charges $547 per month, and
carries a monthly balance of $2,372. (More if he lives on
the East Coast, less if he lives in the more frugal
Midwest.)

What exactly is a Shriner?

You've seen them marching in your local parades, those
colorful guys with the funny little red hats. Who are they?
Shriners, short for members of the Ancient Arabic Order of
the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine (no kidding), are an
auxiliary order of Masons. Shriners are known for their
philanthropy, particularly their hospitals for children
where kids receive medical care free of charge.

Here's To Think On! ... with Ken Darby
------------------------------------

On A Mission!


A deputy police officer responded to a report of a
barroom disturbance.

The "disturbance" turned out to be well over six feet tall
and weighed almost 300 pounds. What's more, he
boasted that he could whip the deputy and the "Heavy
Weight Boxing Champion of the World."

Said the policeman, "I'll bet that you're also an escape
artist too, probably better than Houdini."

The giant nodded.

"If I had some chains," the deputy continued, "you
could show us how strong you really are. But all I've
got is a set of handcuffs. Why don't you see just how
quickly you can break out of them?"

Once in the cuffs, the man puffed, pulled and jerked
for four minutes.

"I can't get out of these," the giant growled.

"Are you sure?" the deputy asked.

The fellow tried again. "Nope," he replied. "I can't do it."

"In that case," said the deputy, "you're under arrest."

Slick move huh? The deputy was clearly on a mission.
Here he was, faced with a situation that may have been
messy, and he had to find a way to diffuse it. So he
played along with the scene until he was able to bring
things under control.

That is the way with people who have goals firmly
planted in their minds. They are able to take control of
things and bring about the results they want. Often this
happens "automatically" with little or no effort on
their part.

You see that is the way with goals. Once firmly
embedded in your mind they become a "second nature"
thing and you automatically function on the path that will
bring about the realization of the goal.

Yet to get the goal burned into your brain so the
"automatic" function kicks in can sometimes be a
challenge. That is why you must commit to you. You
must make a decision that nothing - - - NOTHING - - will
interfere with you reaching your goal.

It has been said that if you live a few years like most
people won't, you will live the rest of your life like most
people can't. Living those very few years like most
people won't is the time when you are cementing your
goals within your mind. Those are the years when your
concentration is the greatest. Thereafter things start to
"flow" in your direction.

So, you, too, can be like the policeman. He was that
well trained that when he saw this situation he simply
and automatically went to a plan that resolved the
condition into him reaching his objective.

Think well. Would you, too, like to be - - -

where you are closest to your Maker. Think on that.

A&P Anatomy And Physiology
PART 6 of 11
The Make Up Of Your Body And How It Functions


Let’s move to the functions of this living person. Don't
ever let anymore tell you that if you have a problem in one
area of your body that it doesn't really affect another
part. It does. The body is an incredible machine and
everything is inter-connected and inter-related. And its
response is very fast. No action is too small for it not to
make a difference or have an effect. And that also shows the
body's incredible adjusting power. Most times you won't even
know something is being adjusted to make another part work
better or keep up.

Since nothing with nature happens in a vacuum, it has to do
something. This is the physiology of the living organism. It
is designed to act a certain way. On its own, one cell is
virtually useless. Together, with millions of identical
cells, it now produces activities or behaviors that are
measurable. Again, the truth is that you can function
perfectly if your cells are anatomically perfect. Everything
they need to survive and do their job is present. Conversely
in "unhealth" or the presence of dis-ease, the cell is not
anatomically correct and subsequently cannot function as
designed.

It's like your vacuum cleaner. Take away one of its parts
and either it won't work at all or will do a poor job. And
if you don't remove the soil that has plugged it or fixed
the parts that don't work, it won't do the job. It's still
considered a vacuum, but it's pretty useless.

PERCEPTIONS . . . by Ken Darby

-----------------------DISCLAIMER

Some around me think I am an opinionated old goat.
Whether that be true or not I will sometimes, in this column,
talk about things people don't like to talk about - or don't want
out in the open. Take it all with a grain of salt.

Do your own thinking, and don't accept the things I say as
gospel. They are only mental meanderings from a simple soul.

-----------------------END DISCLAIMER


A Bit Of A Breather!

Would you believe it? The news, at the moment, is fairly
quiet. There are no new wars and little reporting on the
existing wars.

It is one of those days that cause one to forget all that is
going on in the world because it is not so prevalent in your
face.

Yet, there is a noticeable absence of material on what
anyone is doing to deal with the effects of global warming.
Note the assumption there will be effects - serious effects.

I suppose man will do like he has always done, wait until
there is a problem and then try to fix it. Does that make
sense?

Of course, in many cases and places it does make sense. Does
it make sense regarding the effects of global warming? No.
When people run out of food they begin to move. They become
violent and aggressive. Survival is their motive and heaven
help anyone who gets in their way.

I imagine, in time, we will see anarchy set it and the
tribal mentality will begin to take over again, all
revolving around the need to feed themselves. Water, too,
will be a problem. Already it is getting the name “Light
Gold”.

People soon lose their desire to be a calm and “fitting in”
citizen when they have to scramble for food, and that
particular aspect of the global warming problem will be on
us fast.

I keep encouraging you to seek out peace, to find your Maker
inside you, to find your power within the peace. I do that
because that is the only way you or anyone will survive what
our future holds.

Understand clearly, there is no way we can stop the effects
of global warming. They are here now and will rapidly
develop into conditions governments cannot handle. Life as
we know it is about to change. That can be either good or
bad depending on how you view it. Remember, the fact is not
so important as your reaction to it.

I will refrain from putting in the blurb about buying the
book The Saga of Pinehill. Yet I do admonish you to follow
the principles shown therein.

Have a great day folks. See you tomorrow.

WHY DO WE SAY IT?



Queer Card: What is the reason a queer person is called a
"queer card"?

In a game of bridge, whist, or the like, if your partner
makes an unusual lead, the card played is a "queer" card -
and he's a "queer card" for having led it. A person is
called a "card" by a shortening of the term.
