Life is a well-read, well-loved book.
Constantly we turn the pages back.
The words spring off the paper,
ever new, ever meaningful, always relevant.
The hands of time, they say, cannot be turned back.
The book of life is different. It needs to be re-read.
And so I take my book from where it gathers dust,
high on the shelf but not beyond my reach,
and read and read again my history.
The past, my past, our past.

Folks:

The most incredible book I've ever read!!! On L. Bushs' must read list, I understand why....READ IT GUYS. Particularly the incredible in-depth cultural view of the character's India experience as "Air England's" airport manager trainee......vis-a-vis her rival.....a typically Brit condescending little "shite".

Cheers and enjoy!!!

ciao,

Little Susie came running into the house after school one day, Shouting,
"Daddy! Daddy! I got a 100 in school today!"
"That's great, Sweetheart," said her daddy.
"Come in to the living room and tell me about it."
"Well," began the confession, "I got 50 in spelling, 30 in math's and 20 in science."

What do you all think of these for teens? I just got one for my 14 year old. Her father and I deposit money into it for her to get her "stuff". I'm hoping it will teach her some budgeting skills and responsible use of money. She feels cool because it's like a credit card with her name on it. I like it because I can track her spending on line (she can too). What's your thoughts on them?

That since yesterday the pages are very slow loading, sometimes to the point where you get the "page loading timed out" message, and that some of the graphics that people are posting are not showing up?
It would be nice to see these two problems addressed.
