Well when i was walking to work i kept getting a strange feeling like i was being watched. Its not brother or father becauce i can smell them when they are near and my nose twitches! I kept turning around to see if i could see anyone but i couldnt, the only person i kept seeing was a strange annoying little man! He kept running up to my face and burping and then skipping away! I was more worried about feeling like i was watched than to be concerned about this little man that kept following me! Im now at work and i still feel like im being watched, the little man is still jumping out at me. Ive grown quite fond of him i might take him home to meet mother brother Llama and shadow! Anyway again my question is How can i find out if im being stalked? sent

.The Arabian people has a millenary culture and they developed the trigonometry, the maritime navigation, the astronomy, but by any motive, their society looks to have standstill in the time...
.Fleeing of the generalization, a part of the immigrants of Arabian origin that immigrates for the Europe or U.S.A. pass it have contact with a new reference and worthy kind.
.They and their sons study and work, know persons, habits and other traditions.
.With that experience, after all know another way of life is always salutary, some than return the his countries of origin with the new cultural and academic knowledge act of a paradoxical form, come back itself with an excessive hatefulness against that same culture that was tolerant and fraternal for with them.
.Example of the paragraph above: Osama Bin Laden and the pilots of the planes of September 11th that attacked the twin towers and the Pentagon.
.Why?!!!

Instead of spending thousands employing "super nannies" to help with problem children, why aren't the filthy chav women who have these offspring prevented from breeding? Perhaps something should be added to the water supply on council estates.

Is it because they lucked out in life and got wealthy, Or are they spoiled because they sold their soul to the banks for everything they have, Or they inherited a financial empire, or they have hollywood looks,Or they went to a fancy college and thought they were smart,,WE all put our pants on 1 leg at a time.. go to the bathroom..fart...eat.. get tired.. sleep....have red blood...etc... i could keep on going.........What we do for a living Does Not Define Who We Are Right? ... Then why are we judged and critized if we dont have new I-PODS, PS-3s, a new suv, an expensive home, snazzy clothes, nike shoes, camera phones, or $20,000 credit cards, checking account, etc.......... Is it because the ones that feel superior are so far in debt to their eyeballs that they feel jealous that someone that does not have much is naturally happy? Who set the standard that you have to live this way and give every penney to the bank and be their slave for life so you can have what you want? peace?

We did our duty lord and please forgive us
We in the United States have all heard the haunting song, "Taps". It's the song that gives us that lump in our throats and usually tears in our eyes.

But, do you know the story behind the song? If not, I think you will be interested to find out about its humble beginnings.

Reportedly, it all began in 1862 during the Civil War, when Union Army Captain Robert Ellicombe was with his men near Harrison's Landing in Virginia. The Confederate Army was on the other side of the narrow strip of land.

During the night, Captain Ellicombe heard the moans of a soldier who lay severely wounded on the field. Not knowing if it was a Union or Confederate soldier, the Captain decided to risk his life and bring the stricken man back for medical attention. Crawling on his stomach through the gunfire, the Captain reached the stricken soldier and began pulling him toward his encampment. When the Captain finally reached his own lines, he discovered it was actually a Confederate soldier, but the soldier was dead. The Captain lit a lantern and suddenly caught his breath and went numb with shock. In the dim light, he saw the face of the soldier, it was his own son.

The boy had been studying music in the South when the war broke out. Without telling his father, the boy enlisted in the Confederate Army.
The following morning, heartbroken, the father asked permission of his superiors to give his son a full military burial, despite his enemy status. His request was only partially granted.

The Captain had asked if he could have a group of Army band members play a funeral dirge for his son at the funeral. The request was turned down since the soldier was a Confederate. But, out of respect for the father, they did say they could give him only one musician. The Captain chose a bugler. He asked the bugler to play a series of musical notes he had found on a piece of paper in the pocket of the dead youth's uniform. This wish was granted.

The haunting melody, we now know as "Taps" ... used at military funerals was born. The words are:

Day is done.
Gone the Sun.
From the lakes.
From the hills.
From the sky.
All is well.
Safely rest.
God is nigh.

Fading light.
Dims the sight.
And a star.
Gems the sky.
Gleaming bright.
From afar.
Drawing nigh.
Falls the night.

Thanks and praise
For our days.
Neath the sun.
Neath the stars.
Neath the sky.
As we go.
This we know.
God is nigh.

I too have felt the chills while listening to "Taps" but I have never seen all the words to the song until now. I didn't even know there was more than one verse. I also never knew the story behind the song and I didn't know if you had either so I thought I'd pass it along. I now have an even deeper respect for the song than I did before.

Remember Those Lost and Harmed While Serving Their Country.

Also Remember Those Who Have Served And Returned; and for those presently serving in the Armed Forces.
