Scrapbooking
I Love to scrap !! before the accident I had a hard time finding time, now all I have is time, and funny I still like to scrap. I am 2 years behind in my books I am currently working onAugust 2006.
getting ready to go on a retreat and Lordy do I need it !!!
Girl time, up to 20 women all with the same idea, no men no kids 48 hours of me time someone else cooks for us all we have to do is sit back and scrap, funny I seldom get a whole lot done (probably because I cannot multitask any more) besides getting caught up with the girls. and eating like a queen. :)
we have movie night and do facials, but mostly we scrap and visit. I hope every one has a place their creative side can come out to play.
I am so blessed.

Bail Out
I am disgusted....even if I can't spell it......we bailed them out why ?? More over why am I surprised ? I am not surprised I am pissed with no where to direct the anger. on 60 minutes to night they broke down the why and how this happened, and that it certainly did not have to, at one point a man said even an entry level worker would have known better .... so now you and I get to pay for their being idiots. rich idiots too. shame on them one and all !!

American crisis
where is the money ?? why are companies going under ? when I balance my check book if it is off I spend days looking for my error, aren't companies suposed to know where thier money is ??
Have you seen the e-mail that says stop the bail out send it to Americans over 18.......
Hi Pals,
I'm against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.
Instead, I'm in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in a We Deserve it Dividend.
To make the math simple, let's assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide U.S. Citizens 18+ Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up.. So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billion that equals $425,000. My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a We Deserve It Dividend.
Of course, it would NOT be tax free.
So let's assume a tax rate of 30%. Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes. That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.
But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket. A husband and wife has $595,000.00.
What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?
Pay off your mortgage - housing crisis solved.
Repay college loans - what a great boost to new grads Put away money for college - it'll be there
Save in a bank - create money to loan to entrepreneurs.
Buy a new car - create jobs
Invest in the market - capital drives growth
Pay for your parent's medical insurance - health care improves
Enable Deadbeat Dads to come clean - or else
Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company that is cutting back.
And of course, for those serving in our Armed Forces.
If we're going to re-distribute wealth let's really do it...instead of trickling out a puny $1000.00 ( 'vote buy' ) economic incentive that is being proposed by one of our candidates for President. If we're going to do an $85 billion bailout, let's bail out every adult U S Citizen 18+!
As for AIG - liquidate it. Sell off its parts. Let American General go back to being American General. Sell off the real estate. Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up. Here's my rationale.
We deserve it and AIG doesn't.
Sure it's a crazy idea that can 'never work. But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party! How do you spell Economic Boom? I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the $85 Billion
We Deserve It Dividend more than do the geniuses at AIG or in Washington DC
And remember, The Birk plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because $25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.
Ahhh...I feel so much better getting that off my chest. Kindest personal regards,
Birk T. J . Birkenmeier, A Creative Guy & Citizen of the Republic
PS: Feel free to pass this along to your pals as it's either good for a laugh or a tear or a very sobering thought on how to best use $85 Billion!!
