 It can buy you a House,
But not a Home.
It can buy you a Bed,
But not Sleep.
It can buy you a Clock,
But not Time.
It can buy you a Book,
But not Knowledge.
It can buy you a Position,
But not Respect.
It can buy you Medicine,
But not Health.
It can buy you Blood,
But not Life.
It can buy you Sex,
But not Love. 
So you see, money isn't everything. The best things in life can't be bought, and often we destroy ourselves trying!
I tell you all this because I am your Friend, and as your Friend I want to take away your needless pain and suffering...
So send me all your money and I will suffer for you.
A truer Friend than me you will never find.
CASH ONLY, PLEASE |
Emma.
Interesting and nice looking cows you got there. Paula

I don't know why I haven't been here in such a long time, but I'm turning my alert for you back on. As I was reading your side bar it made me smile. When I was a very young child by dad worked in the oil fields of Texas and Oklahoma. He also did track work (either before or after the oil fields, I can't remember).

Hi Barbara,
ReplyDeleteI WISH ALL OF THE WEALTHY HAD THE ATTITUDE OF BILL GATES AND HIS WIFE.
THEY ARE SPENDING MILLIONS ON SCHOOLS THAT MAINLY PROMOTE READING, WRITING, ARITHMETIC AND CERTAINLY CHRISTIANITY.
THERE ARE ALSO MANY OTHERS OF 'MEANS' THAT ARE SPENDING TO ENCOURAGE SENSIBLE FORMS OF EDUCATION.
I BELIEVE THAT COLLEGE EDUCATION AT HOME BY USING AVAILABLE METHODS (DVDs, VCRs,TV PRESENTATIONS), COULD PROBABLY EQUAL THE GOING TO A PROFESSOR'S CLASS AND RECEIVE ASSIGNMENT OF WHAT TO STUDY AT THE DORMITORY OR IN MANY CASES AN EXPENSIVE RESIDENCE THAT THE PARENTS REALLY CANNOT AFFORD.
'SPRING BREAK' MIGHT NOT BE THE SAME. SOME OF THAT VIGOR COULD BE USED TO MOW THE LAWN OR HELP TEND A VEGETABLE GARDEN OR EVEN HELP MOM AND DAD AROUND THE HOUSE. sam
