The Apple computer Ceo, exactly my age, was named the Best CEO of the decade! Amazing. He was fired not that long ago from his own company. And he almost died from liver cancer and had to have a liver transplant just to live. Not only lives, but thrives!Just talking to a 40 year old salesman who leaves town after Christmas because he still misses his family now deceased.I do have fond memories of the yellow apples. Really a miracle to live just one day. Happy New Year!!From: "RTH232@aol.com" <RTH232@aol.The old Apple Seller at Happy`s passed @ 86 on Dec. 21 - This was Mr. William (Bill) Webb who I bought the Yellow apples from - he had cancer and has not been to the Flea and sold for a few months.I have not attended the "gathering" of Happy People at Happy`s since September, 2009Picture and large write-up on Roanoke Times O.B.`s on December 21 ( on the Net )A lot have passed that I knew who use to go there - from their 50`s into their 80`s"Nothing is forever"TO

Well Covered: A fundamental American perspective many have forgotten
THINK THIS GUY HAS IT ALL COVERED. I COULDN'T SPOT ANYTHING HE LEFT OUT.
I Am the Democratic Liberal-Progressive's Worst Nightmare.
I am a White, Conservative, Tax-Paying, American Veteran, Gun Owning Biker.
I am a Master leatherworker. I work hard and long hours with my hands to earn a living.I believe in God and the freedom of religion, but I don't push it on others.
I ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles, and drive American-made cars, and I believe in American products and buy them whenever I can.
I believe the money I make belongs to me and not some liberal governmental functionary, Democratic or Republican, that wants to share it with others who don't work!
I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!
I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer; it makes you a smart American.
I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything. Get over it!
I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac or any other item, you should do it in English.
I believe there should be no other language option.
I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.
My heroes are Malcolm Forbes, Bill Gates, John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and Willie G. Davidson, who makes the awesome Harley Davidson Motorcycles.
I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.
I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching or arguing about it.
I've never owned a slave, nor was I a slave. I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks, and neither have you!
I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and change your own country!
This is AMERICA ...We like it the way it is and more so the way it was ...so stop trying to change it to look like Russia or China , or some other socialist country!
If you were born here and don't like it... you are free to move to any Socialist country that will have you. (And take Barack Hussein Obama and his group with you.) Massachusetts started the ball rolling. Keep it going.
I believe it is time to really clean house, starting with the White House, the seat of our biggest problems.
I want to know which church is it, exactly, where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution? Can I get an AMEN on that one?
I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the law, regardless of what color you are, but not just because you happen to ride a bike.
And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my driver's license. I think it's good.... And I'm proud that 'God' is written on my money.
I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.
I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause.... Get a job and do your part to support yourself and your family!
I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents....
I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think!
I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA !
If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.
If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know....
We want our country back! My Country.....I hope this offends all illegal aliens.
My great, great, great, great grandfather watched and bled as his friends died in the Revolution & the War of 1812. My great, great, great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Mexican American War. My great, great grandfather watched as his friends & brothers died in the Civil War. My great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Spanish-American War. My grandfather watched as his friends died in WW I. My father watched as his friends died in WW II. I watched as my friends died in Vietnam , Panama & Desert Storm. My son watched & bled as his friends died in Afghanistan and Iraq . None of them died for the Mexican Flag. Everyone died for the American flag.
Texas high school students raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole, other students took it down. Guess who was expelled...the students who took it down.
California high school students were sent home on Cinco de Mayo, because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.
Enough is enough this message needs to be viewed by every American; and every American needs to stand up for America . We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough. I'm taking a stand.
I'm standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the American flag.
If you agree, stand up with me. If you disagree, please let me know. I will gladly remove you from my e-mail list.
And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message.
AMERICANS, stop giving away Your RIGHTS !
Let me make this clear! THIS IS MY COUNTRY !
This statement DOES NOT mean I'm against immigration !
YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY, welcome to come legally:
1. Get a sponsor !
2. Learn the LANGUAGE, as immigrants have in the past !
3. Live by OUR rules !
4. Get a job !
5. Pay YOUR Taxes !
6. No Social Security until you have earned it and Paid for it !
7. NOW find a place to lay your head !
If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone, then YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM !
We've gone so far the other way . . . bent over backwards not to offend anyone.
Only AMERICANS seems to care when American Citizens are being offended !
WAKE UP America ! ! !
If you do not Pass this on, may your fingers cramp !

Stoicism...
Say to yourself in the early morning: I shall meet today ungrateful, violent, treacherous, envious, uncharitable men. All of these things have come upon them through ignorance of real good and ill... I can neither be harmed by any of them, for no man will involve me in wrong, nor can I be angry with my kinsman or hate him; for we have come into the world to work together...

400 years ago our nation's capital swarmed with deer, buffaloes, bears...
Almost 400 years ago, an Englishman named Henry Fleet became the first European to set foot on the land that would become Washington, D.C. He reported enthusiastically on the pleasant climate, the plenitude of sturgeon and other fish. "And as for deer, buffaloes, bears, turkey, the woods do swarm with them."

The Word of God will produce fruit just like rain on the ground
10 "The rain and snow come down from the heavens
and stay on the ground to water the earth.
They cause the grain to grow,
producing seed for the farmer
and bread for the hungry.
11 It is the same with my word.
I send it out, and it always produces fruit.
It will accomplish all I want it to,
and it will prosper everywhere I send it.
First free yourself from suffering...
Even the muddiest of pools will become clear when left still and undisturbed.
Those who are AWAKE live in a state of constant amazement.

Live purely
Nothing can separate us from the Love of God
38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I LOVE MY ATTORNEY
From: "RTH232@aol.com" <RTH232@aol.com>
> After living what I felt was a 'decent' life, my time on earth came to the end.
>
> The first thing I remember is sitting on a bench in the waiting room of what I thought to be a court house.
>
> The doors opened and I was instructed to come in and have a seat by the defense table.
>
> As I looked around I saw the 'prosecutor. '
>
> He was a villainous looking gent who snarled as he stared at me. He definitely was the most evil person I have ever seen.
>
> I sat down and looked to my left and there sat My Attorney, kind and gentle looking man whose appearance seemed so familiar to me, I felt I knew Him.
>
> The corner door flew open and there appeared the Judge in full flowing robes.
>
> He commanded an awesome presence as He moved across the room I couldn't take my eyes off of Him.
>
> As He took His seat behind the bench, He said, 'Let us begin.'
>
> The prosecutor rose and said, 'My name is Satan and I am here to show you why this man belongs in hell.'
>
> He proceeded to tell of lies that I told, things that I stole, and In the past when I cheated others. Satan told of other horrible perversions that were once in my life and the more he spoke, the further down in my seat I sank.
>
> I was so embarrassed that I couldn't look at anyone, even my own Attorney, as the Devil told of sins that even I had completely forgotten about.
>
> As upset as I was at Satan for telling all these things about me, I was equally upset at My Attorney who sat there silently not offering any form of defense at all.
>
> I know I had been guilty of those things, but I had done some good in my life - couldn't that at least equal out part of the harm I'd done?
>
> Satan finished with a fury and said, 'This man belongs in hell, he is guilty of all that I have charged and there is not a person who can prove otherwise.'
>
> When it was His turn, My Attorney first asked if He might approach the bench. The Judge allowed this over the strong objection of Satan, and beckoned Him to come forward.
>
> As He got up and started walking, I was able to see Him in His full splendor and majesty.
>
> I realized why He seemed so familiar; this was Jesus representing me, my Lord and my Savior.
>
> He stopped at the bench and softly said to the Judge, 'HI, DAD,' and then He turned to address the court.
>
> 'Satan was correct in saying that this man had sinned, I won't deny any of these allegations. And, yes, the wage of sin is death, and this man deserves to be punished.'
>
> Jesus took a deep breath and turned to His Father with outstretched arms and proclaimed, 'However, I died on the cross so that this person might have eternal life and he has accepted Me as his Savior, so he is Mine.'
>
> My Lord continued with, 'His name is written in the Book of Life, and no one can snatch him from Me.
> 'Satan still does not understand yet. This man is not to be given justice, but rather mercy.'
>
> As Jesus sat down, He quietly paused, looked at His Father and said, 'There is nothing else that needs to be done. I've done it all.'
>
> The Judge lifted His mighty hand and slammed the gavel down. The following words bellowed from His lips.....
>
> 'This man is free. The penalty for him has already been paid in full. Case dismissed.'
> As my Lord led me away, I could hear Satan ranting and raving, 'I won't give up, I will win the next one.'
> I asked Jesus as He gave me my instructions where to go next, 'Have you ever lost a case?'
>
> Christ lovingly smiled and said, 'Everyone that has come to Me and asked Me to represent them has received the same verdict as you, ~Paid In Full.'
>
> If you do not pass this along to 15 people immediately, absolutely nothing will happen .
>
> Passing this on to anyone you consider a friend,
> (as I have done here), will bless you both.
>
> 'Stop telling God how big your storm is.
> Instead, tell the storm how big your God is!'
>
