This was emailed to me this week. I do not know the originator to give proper credit to, but was encouraged to pass it on. I don't like to forward emails, but I will post here:

A friend of mine sent me this earlier today. I don't know where he got it, but it has some really useful stuff:

Bananas

Peel a banana from the bottom and you won't have to pick the little 'stringy
things' off of it. That's how the primates do it. Take your bananas apart
when you get home from the store. If you leave them connected at the stem,
they ripen faster.

My wife and myself are coming to the painful realization that our current living circumstance is not tenable. Financially we are hanging by a very dangerous thread and are on the virge of callapse. We made the decision a few weeks ago after receiving a letter from one of our mortgage companies that we need to downsize our financial footprint. Ie. Our monthly costs of operation are way too high. We need to move back to our land in the country.

Have you really looked at your paystub?

For various reasons of budget and taxes I was looking at old pay stubs and current ones for my wife and myself as I was going through paperwork in my home office last week. What I found distressed me to no end. What my wife and I make is not what we think we make.

For instance, in the last 6 weeks, my wife's pay stub has reported almost $2000 in "other" compensation. She has not received any monetary compensation and has no idea what this is referring to. I asked her to find out from her employer's human resource department that this is exactly. We will be taxed on this "other" compensation, and need to know what it is so that if there was na error it can be corrected. We know it is not bonus pay as that is listed seperately. This increased other compensation may have other affects as well, such as reducing or eliminating any public aid benefits towhich we may otherwise be eligible with a family as large as ours.

Every office has one or more of these people. These are the whiners, the constant drip in the boss's ear. They appear to be attentive to their jobs, but you find them butting into most conversations and listening in to the others. They are the ones that are constantly seeking "fairness" in the work place. They usually have an agenda of some sort for their personal career goals. They will go to the boss with every little thing, especially if they want the person's job that they are complaining about.

Copenhagen Consequences: What You Need To Know

Fact Sheet #44

The Next Kyoto?

U.S. Policy: In 1997 the U.S. Senate unanimously passed the Byrd-Hagel Resolution, which warned President Clinton not to enter into any global warming treaty that leaves out developing nations or hurts the American economy. This is still U.S. policy today and should serve as the overarching guidelines for the December global warming conference in Copenhagen.

Several days ago Major Nidal Malik Hasan killed several young soldiers on a military base in Texas. This was initially presented by our media as apossible act of "terrorism".

Now let's examine that idea in a more logical framework:

We are in MULTIPLE foreign nations. We are engaged in a declared WAR against the umbrella tag of TERRORISM. Within this declared war are several identified targets and some unidentified targets. This has resulted in the over throw of at least two governements, not that they were good governments, that we had at least some part in establishing in the past. We then established new governments. We have specifically targeted military installations and training camps, military personnel, and political entities during this process. We have specifically avoided the targeting of religious institutions despite knowledge that these locations are where the military personnel are seeking refuge, support, and encouragement.
