Hi Everyone!

So, Suzie you'll come to my house to paint (not clean, I'll do that myself :-)!) when you're done at yours??

Helen - feel better (I have bronchitis too - stinks - all I do is cough and I DON"T SMOKE) (how's your hubby doing?)

Good luck everyone trying to quit or cutback on smoking. Not an easy thing to do but you can do it.

Happy Belated Birthday to whoever I missed. Hope it was a good day.

Just a quick type-by to say hi! Later

Hey Guys:

WOW! I I can't believe how my idea took off about quitting cigarettes. I am so happy for all of you that are trying. I am ashamed to say that this originator has not done anything yet. It is so hard to think about a day without cigarettes. But I know I must try to do it. Good luck to all of you who are on the road already. Maybe if I keep reading how you all have done it I can too.

HI JOEY

WHATS UP DUDE

THIS IS NOT GOOD
HOPING ITS NOT TRUE

An unconfirmed report by the Russian Northern Fleets suggests that the devastating Haiti earthquake was caused by a United States Navy "earthquake weapons" test, which was intended to be used against Iran.
On Thursday, Digital Journal reported that Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez accused the United States of causing the Haiti earthquake, which killed more than 100,000 people, through a tectonic weapon. Chavez also accused the US of trying to use the deadly earthquake to occupy Haiti.
According to an unconfirmed report by the Russian Northern Fleets, the tragic earthquake in Haiti was caused by a US navy earthquake weapon that went "horribly wrong," reports Press TV. The weapons test was originally supposed to be used against Iran but caused the cataclysmic earthquake in the Caribbean country.
The purpose of the earthquake weapon being used against Iran, according to the Russian report, was to topple the current Islamic system in the country.
Vive TV reports that the unconfirmed Russian report also suggests that the US instigated the 6.5 magnitude earthquake in the Pacific Ocean earlier this month. That earthquake did not cause any deaths or injuries but did damage many residential and commercial buildings.
The report further states that the system carrying out these tests is the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP). The data also coincides with a previous report that associates the 2008 7.8 magnitude earthquake in China with HAARP.
Although Russia has accused the US of holding such a type of weapon, a Georgia Green Party leader claimed that Moscow, allegedly possessing similar weapons, caused an earthquake on Georgian territory several years ago.
The Russian Northern Fleets report has not been confirmed or verified by official sources.

Hi AL.....Im so sorry about your Aunt Marie

I had to have seen her walking 5th ave or from The Bank or 18st Mini Mart
back in the day

Al is Aunt Marie related to jeanette depinto??? i think she was a spinnato. My Moms good friend from years ago

Al.....I'm so sorry to hear about your aunt.

Well i was posting this until I read Al's notes
but I will post it anyway.For all the people on a diet.


P.S. We are in an age
when media puts into our heads
the idea that only skinny people are beautiful, but I prefer to enjoy an ice cream with my kids, a
good dinner with a man who makes me shiver, and a piece of chocolate with my friends.
With time, we gain weight
because we accumulate so much information and wisdom in our heads
that when there is no more room,
it distributes out to the rest of our bodies.
So we aren't heavy,
we are enormously cultured,
educated and happy.
Beginning today,
when I look at my butt in the mirror I will think,
Good grief, look how smart I am!

Hi Everyone.....

Karen ....I wish I had the strength to do yours.....serious!
I used to be good at doing this ....Im pushing myself right
now!

Barbara....stop saying "You Cant" thats the 1st step!
