Now now! Who else would be mentioning things such as ridding our lovely couintry of Muslim Suicide Kitties with my fashionable garden tractor, if it wasn't for moi coming back?

Yes, born before time was recorded, I have been around when the first fishie thingy strolled out of the ocean. The humans, of course, thought this was most cute but ate it anyway.

I was there when the pyramids were built. They were just navigational points for me to use, because I always got lost in the desert. I still do!

Napoleon was much a larger fellow than history reports, also. His size was recorded when he was suffereing a case of the renown inflamed hemmorhoids, I am sorry to report. Wouldn't you be all shrunken if that happened to you?

The 2nd World War started because all of the Germans and all of the Japanese felt like going out and having a lark! Look what happened after that!

I was on the moon when the Americans landed in 1969, but I was kind of shy at the time. And I was meditating, so I didn't see them land because my eyes were closed! Sound does NOT travel in a vacuum! So I missed out on greeting them!

This new gas crisis has been done before. I remember back when it was whale oil that was in short supply! Not to mention salt, and those darling little sardines, though that was not recorded! I saw it! It's true! Not to mention back when James Carter was President of the US of A, for the gasoline/petrol shartage being now reported! I do believe that he was behind that, trying to sell peanut oil as an alternative fuel!

I shall be around long after all of you have passed away, so if you feel as if you have something important for me to keep alive in the memories of others, feel free to let me know!

Confused as always!

Hi ya,Sis!

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

you know it sister jodee..

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
