~ BREAST CANCER AWARENESS(Please Check this out) ~
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and I want to make sure you sweet sisters are aware of this type of Breast Cancer..Please Watch the video and pass the news on...and kick this nasty disease before it takes another loved one......
I got this in my email this afternoon and wanted to share.... Dont attack me if you dont like the Bar stool idea... I just wanted to show you the liablity that goes on behind our backs when it comes to the Government and taxes....Something to make you go hmmmm
Under Obama’s new plan the first four men (the poorest who pay nothing) would actually go home with a “rebate”…a check in their pocket. Gotta spread that wealth around
Bar Stool Economics
Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:
The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.
So, that's what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the ow ner threw them a curve. 'Since you are all such good customers, he said, 'I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20. Drinks for the ten now cost just $80.
The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes, so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his 'fair share?' They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay.
And so: The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings)
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings).
The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28%savings).
The e ighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).
Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant the men began to compare their savings.
'I only got a dollar out of the $20,'declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man,' but he got $10!'
'Yeah, that's right,' exclaimed the fifth man. 'I only saved a dollar, too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than I!'
'That's true!!' shouted the seventh man. 'Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!'
'Wait a minute,' yelled the first four men in unison. 'We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!'
The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.
The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers with out him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!
And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

Suit against God thrown out over lack of address

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A judge has thrown out a Nebraska legislator's lawsuit against God, saying the Almighty wasn't properly served due to his unlisted home address. State Sen. Ernie Chambers filed the lawsuit last year seeking a permanent injunction against God.
He said God has made terroristic threats against the senator and his constituents in Omaha, inspired fear and caused "widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants."
Chambers has said he filed the lawsuit to make the point that everyone should have access to the courts regardless of whether they are rich or poor.
On Tuesday, however, Douglas County District Court Judge Marlon Polk ruled that under state law a plaintiff must have access to the defendant for a lawsuit to move forward.
"Given that this court finds that there can never be service effectuated on the named defendant this action will be dismissed with prejudice," Polk wrote.
Chambers, who graduated from law school but never took the bar exam, thinks he's found a hole in the judge's ruling.
"The court itself acknowledges the existence of God," Chambers said Wednesday. "A consequence of that acknowledgment is a recognition of God's omniscience."
Therefore, Chambers said, "Since God knows everything, God has notice of this lawsuit."
Chambers has 30 days to decide whether to appeal. He said he hasn't decided yet.
Chambers, who has served a record 38 years in the Nebraska Legislature, is not returning next year because of term limits. He skips morning prayers during the legislative session and often criticizes Christians.
Ok I couldnt help but share this with you guys as I got this in an email from a dear blogger buddy. I hope you laugh just like I did. Enjoy
Sick Leave
I urgently needed a few days off work,
But, I knew the Boss would not allow me to take leave.
I thought that maybe if I acted 'Crazy'
Then he would tell me to take a few days off.
So, I hung upside-down on the ceiling and made funny noises.
My co-worker (who's blonde) asked me what I was doing.
I told her that I was pretending to be a light bulb
So that the Boss might think I was 'Crazy' and give me a few
Days off.
A few minutes later the Boss came into the office and asked,
'What in the name of good GOD are you doing?'
I told him I was a light bulb.
He said, 'You are clearly stressed out.
Go home and recuperate for a couple of days.'
I jumped down and walked out of the office...
When my co-worker (the blonde) followed me, the Boss asked her,
'..And where do you think you're going?!'
(You're gonna love this....)
She said, 'I'm going home,too. I can't work in the dark.
Dr. Jerome Corsi, author of a New York Times number-one best-seller, says supporters of the nation of Israel should be concerned about a former Air Force general who is now co-chairman of Barack Obama's campaign committee.
Corsi's latest book, The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, has shot to the top of the Times best-seller list. The book warns about a number of advisors Senator Obama (D-Illinois) has latched onto as he tries to convince voters he has what it takes to become Commander-in-Chief. One of those advisors, according to Corsi, is General Tony McPeak (USAF-Ret.), who served as Air Force Chief of Staff under President Bill Clinton. Corsi contends McPeak supports Palestine while going against Israel.
"This General McPeak is decidedly pro-Palestinian to the extreme and anti-Israeli. Since the 70s, McPeak has been urging Israel to give away territory," Corsi explains. "And he has been decidedly pounding on and abusive to the Jewish voters."
And Corsi says McPeak does not seem to think Hamas and Hezbollah are much of a problem. "McPeak has compared Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist organizations to just being like religious radicals -- you know, [that] they're just little extremists. Well, Hezbollah and Hamas are sworn to destroy to the state of Israel," Corsi points out. "And here one of Obama's top advisors is still endorsing Hamas and Hezbollah."
With advisors like McPeak, Corsi believes the foreign policy of an Obama presidency regarding Israel should be obvious.
