HORSE SENSE !! http://ping.fm/NaSnx

Memory is what tells a man today that his wife's birthday was yesterday.

A well-read Bible makes a well-fed soul.

Turning up one's nose often gets it bent out of shape.

You can preach a better sermon with your life then with your lips.

Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.

Two little boys,

this is just great. hope you enjoy.

hugs Rosemary, MOM, GMA, GGMA

Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, were excessively mischievous. They
were always getting into trouble and their parents knew all about it. If
any mischief occurred in their town, the two boys were probably
involved.

The boys' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful
in disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her
boys.

The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually.

So the mother sent the 8 year old first, in the morning, with the older
boy to see the preacher in the afternoon.
The preacher, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the younger boy
down and asked him sternly, "Do you know where God is, son?"

The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting
there wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open.

So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, "Where is God?!"
Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. The preacher raised his
voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed,
"Where is God?!"

The boy screamed and bolted from the room, ran directly home and
dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him.
When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, "What happened?"

The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, "We are in BIG trouble
this time," (I just LOVE reading this next line again and again:)

"GOD is missing, and they think we did it!"

ZEN TEACHINGS!

ZEN TEACHINGS!!

1. Do not walk behind me, for I may

not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for

I may not follow. Do not walk beside

me for the path is narrow. In fact, just

piss off and leave me alone.

2. Sex is like air. It's not that

important unless you aren't getting

any.

3. No one is listening until you fart.

4. Always remember you're unique.

Just like everyone else.

5. Never test the depth of the water

with both feet.

6. If you think nobody cares whether

you're alive or dead, try missing a

couple of mortgage payments.

7. Before you criticize someone, you

should walk a mile in their shoes. That

way, when you criticize them, you're a

mile away and you have their shoes.

8. If at first you don't succeed,

skydiving is not for you.

9. Give a man a fish and he will eat

for a day. Teach him how to fish, and

he will sit in a boat and drink beer all

day.

10. If you lend someone $20 and

never see that person again, it was

probably well worth it.

11. If you tell the truth, you don't have

to remember anything.

12. Some days you are the dog, some

days you are the tree.

13. Don't worry; it only seems kinky

the first time.

14. Good judgment comes from bad

experience...and most of that comes

from bad judgment.

15. A closed mouth gathers no foot.

16. There are two excellent theories

for arguing with women. Neither one

works.

17. Generally speaking, you aren't

learning much when your lips are

moving.

18. Experience is something you don't

get until just after you need it.

19. We are born naked, wet and

hungry, and get slapped on our ass...

Then things just keep getting worse.

20. Never, under any circumstances,

take a sleeping pill and a laxative on

the same night.

21. Remember in November what the

Government has done the other 11

months.

22. "In God We Trust" All others keep

your hands where I can see them.

Two Choices

Two Choices What would you do?....you make the choice. Don't look for a punch line, there isn't one. Read it anyway. My question is: Would you have made the same choice? At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves children with learning disabilities, the father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question: 'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does, is done with perfection. Yet my son, Shay, cannot learn things as other children do. He cannot understand things as other children do. Where is the natural order of things in my son?' The audience was stilled by the query. The father continued. 'I believe that when a child like Shay, who was mentally and physically disabled comes into the world, an opportunity to realize true human nature presents itself, and it comes in the way other people treat that child.' Then he told the following story: Shay and I had walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked, 'Do you think they'll let me play?' I knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but as a father Ialso understood that if my son were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence to be accepted by others in spite of his handicaps. I approached one of the boys on the field and asked (not expecting much) if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance and said, 'We're losing by six runs and the game is in the eighth inning. I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him in to bat in the ninth inning.' Shay struggled over to the team's bench and, with a broad smile, put on a team shirt. I watched with a small tear in my eye and warmth in my heart. The boys saw my joy at my son being accepted. In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. In the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the right field. Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously ecstatic just to be in the game and on the field, grinning from ear to ear as I waved to him from the stands. In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again. Now, with two outs and the bases loaded, the potential winning run was on base and Shay was scheduled to be next at bat. At this juncture, do they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game? Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was all but impossible because Shay didn't even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball. However, as Shay stepped up to the plate, the pitcher, recognizing that the other team was putting winning aside for this moment in Shay's life, moved in a few steps to lob the ball in softly so Shay could at least make contact. The first pitch came and Shay swung clumsily and missed. The pitcher again took a few steps forward to toss the ball softly towards Shay.. As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher. The game would now be over. The pitcher picked up the soft grounder and could have easily thrown the ball to the first baseman. Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game. Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the first baseman's head, out of reach of all team mates. Everyone from the stands and both teams started yelling, 'Shay, run to first! Run to first!' Never in his life had Shay ever run that far, but he made it to first base. He scampered down the baseline, wide-eyed and startled. Everyone yelled, 'Run to second, run to second!' Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second, gleaming and struggling to make it to the base. B y the time Shay rounded towards second base, the right fielder had the ball . the smallest guy on their team who now had his first chance to be the hero for his team. He could have thrown the ball to the second-baseman for the tag, but he understood the pitcher's intentions so he, too, intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third-baseman's head. Shay ran toward third base deliriously as the runners ahead of him circled the bases toward home. All were screaming, 'Shay, Shay, Shay, all the Way Shay' Shay reached third base because the opposing shortstop ran to help him by turning him in the direction of third base, and shouted, 'Run to third! Shay, run to third!' As Shay rounded third, the boys from both teams, and the spectators, were on their feet screaming, 'Shay, run home! Run home!' Shay ran to home, stepped on the plate, and was cheered as the hero who hit the grand slam and won the game for his team 'That day', said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, 'the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of true love and humanity into this world'. Shay didn't make it to another summer. He died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making me so happy, and coming home and seeing his Mother tearfully embrace her little hero of the day! AND NOW A LITTLE FOOT NOTE TO THIS STORY: We all send thousands of jokes through the e-mail without a second thought, but when it comes to sending messages about life choices, people hesitate. The crude, vulgar, and often obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion about decency is too often suppressed in our schools and workplaces. If you're thinking about forwarding this message, chances are that you're probably sorting out the people in your address book who aren't the 'appropriate' ones to receive this type of message Well, the person who sent you this believes that we all can make a difference. We all have thousands of opportunities every single day to help realize the 'natural order of things.' So many seemingly trivial interactions between two people present us with a choice: Do we pass along a little spark of love and humanity or do we pass up those opportunities and leave the world a little bit colder in the process? A wise man once said every society is judged by how it treats it's least fortunate amongst them. You now have two choices: 1. Delete 2. Forward May your day, be a Shay Day.
