They are found on your Yahoo Mail home page. Today is a story about "telecom Immunity". This is the first blurb I've seen on the subject of internet security, and FISA.
Read it very carefully and you can
tell from certain statements that internet
communications will be open to
government surveillance.
I can't keep you updated on this,but
I'm asking others interested to bring
up this subject also.

The Divorced Barbie Doll

One day a father gets out of work and on his way home he suddenly
remembers that it's his daughter's birthday. He pulls over to a toy shop
and asks the sales person, "How much for one of those Barbie's in the
display window?"

The salesperson answers, "Which one do you mean, sir? We have:
Work Out Barbie for $19.95, Shopping Barbie for $19.95, Beach Barbie
for $19.95, Disco Barbie for $19.95, Ballerina Barbie for $19.95, Astronaut
Barbie for $19.95, Skater Barbie for $19.95, and Divorced Barbie for $265.95".

The amazed father asks: "It's what?! Why is the Divorced Barbie $265.95
and the others only $19.95?"

The annoyed salesperson rolls her eyes, sighs, and answers: "Sir...,"
Divorced Barbie comes with: Ken's Car, Ken's House, Ken's Boat, Ken's
Furniture, Ken's Computer and ...Oh! One of Ken's friends!

3 Holy Men and a Bear

A priest, a Pentecostal preacher, and a rabbi all served as chaplains to the students of NorthernMichiganUniversityin Marquette. They would get together two or three times a week for coffee and to talk shop.

One day, someone made the comment that preaching to people isn't really all that hard. A real challenge would be to preach to a bear. One thing led to another, and they decided to do an experiment. They would all go out into the woods, find a bear, preach to it, and attempt to convert it.

Seven days later, they all came together to discuss their experience.

Father Flannery, who had his arm in a sling, was on crutches, and had various bandages on his body and limbs, went first. "Well," he said, "I went into the woods to find me a bear. And when I found him, I began to read to him from the Catechism. Well, that bear wanted nothing to do with me and began to slap me around. So I quickly grabbed my holy water, sprinkled him and, Holy Mary Mother of God, he became as gentle as a lamb. The bishop is coming out next week to give him first communion and confirmation."

Reverend Billy Bob spoke next. He was in a wheelchair, had one arm and both legs in casts, and had an IV drip. In his best fire-and-brimstone oratory, he claimed, "WELL, brothers, you KNOW that we don't sprinkle! I went out and I FOUND me a bear. And then I began to read to my bear from God's HOLY WORD! But that bear wanted nothing to do with me. So I took HOLD of him and we began to wrestle. We wrestled down one hill, UP another and DOWN another until we came to a creek. So I quickly DUNKED him and BAPTIZED his hairy soul. And just like you said, he became as gentle as a lamb. We spent the rest of the day praising Jesus."

The priest and the reverend both looked down at the rabbi, who was lying in a hospital bed. He was in a body cast and traction with IVs and monitors running in and out of him. He was in really bad shape. The Rabbi looked up and said, "Looking back on it, circumcision may not have been the best way to start."

Some of you may know that I have been busy accompanying a friend for all sorts of tests lately and have not been on line. The tests results came in, Marie was diagnosed with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Lyme disease. She never knew she was bitten by a tick. She now is taking antibiotics. We were a little frightened at first because her platelets were very low, then a mild rash, flu like symptoms, the nausea and vomiting joint pain. We still can't find the tick though.
I am back taking care of Brian, her son, with cerebral palsy , epilepsy and schitzophrenia, so life is back to normal!

A grand re-union hooley on the moors! All friends welcome!
This depends on the replies of our respected clansfolk who have yet to reply - come forth Jilly, Barbara, JustMe,Goldwing.

But in readiness - have your music chosen and your heartswish which will be granted by the mystic powers that have brought about this great event. For each and every one played a brave part.

But how do we bring the Brave McTealc down from his sentry - he who still suspects skulduggery - how do we re-assure him that our foes are now friends?

And may I ask the honour of my Guiding Light - Goldwing for the first turn around the camp fire?

But can I also ask the great favour and honour of leaving the gathering with the Great and Honourable McTealc for a night on the moors?

I did say that heartswishes would come true!
Come forward with your suggestions for music and merriment!

And Dragons - YOU ARE THE BEST IN THE WORLD!!!!
The Clydesdales are yours - roasted ok with you?

While flying high upon dark moorish sky
My hunger over came me.
Spying sweet treats I did not pass by
But oh! The glee to feed.
These beasts were of fair size
And a treat to these old eyes.
"Not us!" they screamed, We be champs of our kind
Here at Arradoul & Torbruad.
I gave them my word & took back the sky
With another thought in my great eye.
A filly so new & tender
Maybe the Scot will surrender.
So away I flew, straight & true
To raise havoc & mayhem-how about you?


Please bear in mind folks-this is a story line & I happen to love horses dearly. DRAGON

This is a question that might make someone uncomfortable, but I would like input from the over 50 people.

I have known this for a long time, that I am apparently hopelesly old fashioned and out of date with today's moral standards.

HOW do the rest of you deal with this? Are you on board with what is "expected" and accepted in the dating world?

It seems that today a woman meets a guy, and within a few hours is giving him a BJ. No one seems to bat any eye over this. I find it horrifying and disgusting.

I dont even like kissing a "stranger" you just met !

I have no wish, desire and simply cannot could not bring myself to fit into this "service mentality" so many woman seem to have today.

To me oral sex is an extremely intimate thing, and I find it disgusting to even think about anyone and everyone --- well dammit to me its just disrespecting yourself. I cant see ever fitting into the "new dating scene".

Thoughts? Opinions? Anyone?

The winds favor flight
As day turns to night.
Dragons & Basilisk, knights & cheerleaders, dancers & riders,
sword welders & such,
So come claim your place, I ask not too much.
The chickens are gone, I am sorry to say
Maybe they got lost in some body's hay.
Burp!
The field is open & sky is clear
So lets go ridin' my friends so dear.

Can the Clan prove itself to be the peaceful and loving folk that we call ourselves?
Who echoes that we forgive those that would harm us and welcome them back without prejudice?
Can harmony not run through our world again?
Would we not have those amongst who once sought to destroy us - surely it was exclusion in the first place that made this division.
What say the clan?
And Dragons - sheath you claws and know serene thoughts for the consideration of the question - please!

Dragons need riders,small beasties & such
Players, who wish to join in, we thank you very much.
An army we need
that can follow a creed.
Shout out on high
Dis' I! Dis' I .
So dust off your funny bone & join in the dance
And let's all take a chance.
We love a dear lass
who is not showing her class.
That hostel is still a brothel.

We come in all colors, sizes, & such
But, me thinks, you don't know us much.
Fearsome we look
But then open that book.
There beats a true heart
Ready to do its fair part.
A closer look & you will find
a softness, much intertwined.
No need to use swords on our breasts
Cruel words are all that is needed to bring down these mighty beasts.
I answer my sister's call
To raise fun with the havoc & bring laughter to all.

Here I lay waiting for the story to begin
time slowly dragging, taking it's toll.
I hear huffing and blowing but nary a word
of laughter and truth and banquets of trolls.

Cry FREEDOM you say
from all places most high.
Enough of the endless crying!
Because this dragon must FLY!!

So when, my Lady Izzy,
is this story to begin?
For I grow restless
and would search for my kin...

The wyvern, the bassilisk,
the centaurs and all
The faerie folk nearest
the dearest to gall.

The truth and the justice
for FREEDOM to serve
and freedoms disciples
gather in with a verve
