As I was reading I came upon a way of reducing our national debt. There are billions of letters mailed each day at the min. price of .39 cents. How about a .05 tarrif on gift cards. Not only are you wishing well to someone you are helping our country. Yes this opens the door for politicians to divert money from this but it can be protected by law not to be diverted. A nickle at a time reminds me of Harrahs Hotel Casino in Lake Tahoe, the new tower that was built was paid for by "NICKLE MACHINES".
Now sounds to easy and the stamp can be placed and stamped or afixed to the card itself. Just a thought, there could be a division of STAMPS FOR AMERICA that can monitor the division of funds. This is employed by handicapped Americans. I am sure that there are enough of us willing have a purpose again. truthseeker

If Jesus died for all sin that was and is to come why all this controversy. I can read and for all that is said about behavior boils down to how would you feel if you were the target. If we could spend more time accepting ones behavior and less judging we would be a happier society. We seem to think our judgements matter when all it does is convict one of their sin.
As the Olympics begin we are reminded of fair play and competition. As we compete in todays world why is their no reward for effort. When we see someone who despite their makeup shows true desire for the task. Every once in a while the news covers a winner despite their makeup conquers the competition only their are far more who gather reward by completing the event. As the days go forth I ask you to look and ask yourself could I handle someone elses handicap? In seeking that you will gain a new sense of your health. truthseeker

Yes not a typical question only when my numerical seeking eyes look upon the monitoring status of a blog I see more more than one I wonder. Maybe this is a workplace blog and all are reading and posting. More I believe is that is one monitored by family and for safety sake NO hidden blogs. What ever the circumstance I only was curious as to who I'm conversing with. "One" day I did recieve a comment from an actual person connected with the blog. Yes who gives a rats behind this isn't what we're about here. It's a personal journal on the wire. Now will someone explain the 2006 version of personal? truthseeker

When I began blogging I was hoping to find intelligence combined with compassion. Instead I found apathy in great numbers. I get a few who seem to actually care. About what I still wonder at times. I just spent 1 1/2 hrs talking to my doctor about how stressfull it is to live in my shoes. Just now I got off the phone with social services and again was told that there was probably nothing that could be done but she would call and investigate. I have left more possesions go because of one reason or another. That stops here, I am sure that their agenda is to get me angry enough to get thrown out. They have no idea who they are dealing with. Yes they will probably get me out only it will cost them. In self respect they must remember as hard as it was to get me out the memory will haunt them. How do I know? I have done wrong and the conviction of events are brought to bear always. They think that when I am gone that I will let it go. No I will visit my friend and my presence will remind them of the incident. If they have a soul it will burn when ever they are reminded. The "there are laws against that" only helps if you can prove what happens. My blogs on this manner I hope will shed truth and eventually justice. If not then It will be a testimony to their cruelty. I am not a bad person and even if I was it is not their responsibility to judge and if I was so bad how come this didn't start untill the new help was hired around 11/05. Yes I pay attention and as of now it hasn't helped! abp
