I've been fighting with my computer until today when I went to explorer and restored original defaults. Suddenly I am able to go to sites. I believe A-O-ILL is hurting my computer but I am so afraid to do without it.......what a dumbass I am. If I have fixed this today you will see more postings. I haven't been able to access blogger until now. Technology and me.....I don't know.
Have A Great Day!

A Joke
A man is walking down the beach and sees an armless, legless woman sitting on the beach crying, he stops and says, " what are you crying about", she says, " in my whole life I've never been kissed", so he leans down and gives her a kiss. As he walks away he hears her crying even louder, so he goes back and asks " what are you crying for now", she says,"in my whole life I've never been fucked", so he picks her up and throws her in the ocean, and says " well, your'e fucked now!

Medication Pollution Spreads: Water Supply of 24 U.S. Cities FoundContaminated with Pharmaceuticals
by Mike Adams(NaturalNews)
Analysis of tap water supplies in major metropolitan areasconducted by the Associated Press has revealed that the water supply in 24major U.S. cities -- serving over 40 million people -- are contaminatedwith trace amounts of pharmaceuticals including antibiotics, anti-seizuremedications, anti-inflammatory drugs, psychotropic drugs, pain medicationsand even caffeine. The upshot of the report is that tens of millions ofAmericans are unwittingly being subjected to a bizarre medical experimentwith unpredictable results. No scientist can say for certain whetherlong-term exposure to micro doses of multiple pharmaceuticals is safebecause such an experiment has never before been conducted on anypopulation.One of the most startling realizations of the study is that Americans arenow using so many medications that their own biological waste products arebecoming large-scale environmental pollutants. Yet neither the EPA nordrug companies have yet said anything useful about attempts to protect theenvironment from the chemical toxicities of pharmaceutical waste. Drugcompanies have so far pretended the problem doesn't exist. Their goal isto simply sell more drugs, and they seem to be entirely unconcerned aboutwhat happens after a typical medication consumer flushes the toilet andsends the toxic chemicals downstream.If trace amounts of multiple pharmaceuticals are now in the tap watersupplies, it also means that any use of tap water involves the furtherspread of those pharmaceutical chemicals. Watering your lawn, for example,means spraying small amounts of pharmaceuticals on your lawn. Forranchers, watering their cows, pigs or chickens also means dosing thoseanimals with small amounts of pharmaceuticals, and for public schools inthe affected cities, all the water fountains used by the children are nowfunctioning as mass medication dispensing machines.The most dangerous medical experiment in the history of our nationThe mass medication of America has now turned into a grand medicalexperiment that exposes infants, children, expectant mothers, seniorcitizens, voters, law enforcement officers, doctors and everybody else toa combination of drugs known to have extremely dangerous, mind-alteringside effects when taken in full doses. And yet this mass medication of thepopulation is being conducted with no doctor visits, no prescriptions, noconsent and no medical assessment whatsoever. It is essentially amandatory medication carpet-bombing of the entire population.We can only guess what the results will be a generation from now. Butclues can be gathered by watching the impact of such drugs on aquaticorganisms. Amphibians exposed to very low doses of these types ofchemicals, for example, begin to grow dual sex organs and sufferwidespread infertility problems. Deformities in fish are beingincreasingly reported in rivers, and the world's oceans now have over ahundred "dead zones" where agricultural runoff and medication runoff havecombined to form a toxic aquatic poison that kills all fish. This is thesame water being used to create tap water in U.S. cities.What's in recycled urine, anyway?I remember hearing people snicker when they learned that NASA wasrecycling urine on the space shuttle and that astronauts would be drinkingeach other's recycled urine. Well guess what, folks? In major U.S. cities,almost everybody is drinking somebody else's recycled urine!And guess what's in that urine? Toxic medications, caffeine, painkillers,and a cocktail of other chemicals like personal care product fragrances,pesticides and more. It's enough to make you sick. Literally.Guess what else? This is the water used to make sodas and other beveragesat local bottling plants. So every time you pick up a can of soda anddrink it, not only are you getting the dangerous chemicals intentionallyadded to those sodas -- like aspartame and phosphoric acid -- you're alsogetting trace amounts of medication chemicals recycled from other peoples'urine, too! Yum!Water treatment plants don't remove medication chemicals from the water!Many consumers mistakenly believe that water treatment plants actuallyremove these contaminants, but that's not true. Municipal water treatmentfacilities do remove large solids (like dirt, sand and leaves), but theyonly sanitize the water by adding chlorine to kill microorganisms. Theydon't actually remove toxic chemicals from the water. Only distillation --a highly energy-intensive process -- removes everything from the water(including the minerals).A few cities treat their water with ozone, which is a far healthier methodthat avoids the use of toxic chlorine (which is linked to bladder cancer).Ozonation can break down some -- but not all -- medications. So what aboutcountertop filters that use carbon blocks? I'm going to find out theanswer to that question later this week when I interview Aquasana, thecompany that makes countertop filters and shower filters. I'll be sure toask them for technical details about the ability of their filters toremove trace amounts of pharmaceuticals. That's suddenly an increasinglyimportant question to consumers who don't want to consume toxic chemicalsin their water.Terrorists couldn't have done a better job of poisoning AmericaWhat's really interesting in all this is that the water supply is oftencited as a security vulnerability to the nation; a weakness in the defensewhere terrorists could easily dump chemicals and poison the Americanpeople. But why would they bother? Drug companies have already poisonedthe water supply for them!And just in case the medication chemicals in the water aren't enough topoison the nation, many water treatment facilities add even more poison inthe form of artificial fluoride chemicals that cause bone loss and weakenthe immune system. Terrorists could hardly do a better job of poisoningthe water supply than what corporate America has done already... with thehelp of criminally negligent government regulatory agencies, of course.That brings us to the Environmental Protection Agency, a corruptorganization that has now sold out to big business. Read the followingarticle to learn how the EPA now conspires with the chemical industry tocensor scientists who try to protect the public from toxic chemicals:http://www.naturalnews.com/022773.htmlThe EPA has taken no action whatsoever to regulate or eliminate thepresence of pharmaceutical chemicals in the water supply. Apparently, theEPA doesn't mind the fact that infants, babies and pregnant women are nowdrinking six different medications in their tap water. The agency remainseither silent on the issue or in agreement with the corrupt scientists whosay the levels of contamination are too low to really matter. But intruth, nobody knows the health effects of combining multiple low-dosepharmaceuticals and feeding it to the population. Anybody who says there'sno risk of harm is simply lying.How to avoid contaminated waterThe solution to all this? On a personal level, you'll need to avoiddrinking tap water, period. Or filter it really well. Distillation, as Imentioned, is very energy intensive (which makes it bad for globalwarming), but it does get the water very, very clean. Other consumer-levelwater filters may remove some amount of pharmaceuticals, but I don't haveall the facts on that yet, so I'm not going to make any recommendationsuntil I learn more.But I am researching it, so stay tuned to NaturalNews.com and subscribe toour e-mail newsletter at http://www.naturalnews.com/readerregist...I'll be sure to e-mail an announcement when I have new information aboutthe effectiveness of consumer water filters.Get your medications for free!The funny part in all this is that if medication trends continue and thepresence of pharmaceuticals in the water supply continues to increase, itmight get to the point where you no longer need to pay for medications atall! Need some anti-inflammatory drugs? Just drink the water!Of course, it might be better described as "drinking Big Pharma'skool-aid," because the pharmaceutical industry is now founded on acult-like belief in chemicals promoted by commissioned drug reps,psychiatric zealots and mind-numbed doctors. The level of irrationalbelief in the power of pharmaceuticals has reached such a fervor that itcan only have been made possible by a mass brainwashing of gullibleprofessionals. They have schools dedicated to this dark art -- they'recalled "med schools."Seriously, this tap water contamination is yet one more reason to considerleaving the city and moving closer to nature. America is now sointoxicated with medications that they're showing up in the water! Do yourealize how many people have to be taking (and flushing) drugs to get tothat point? It means that the nation has become a chemical consumptionquagmire that has now poisoned the people, the land, the air and thewater.The people of America deserve better. Problem is, they're too drugged upto know it! Don't you find it interesting, by the way, that the EPA iswarning everybody about the environmental dangers of colloidal silver, yetutterly ignoring the environmental dangers of pharmaceutical antibiotics?It's an interesting double standard...

The Ego
For the ego to survive, it must make time--past and future--more important than the present moment. The ego cannot tolerate becoming friendly with the present moment, except briefly just after it got what it wanted. Nothing can satisfy the ego for long. As long as it runs your life, there are two ways of being unhappy. Not getting what you want is one. Getting what you want is the other........Tolle

Sex,sex and more sex...
Spitzer's Shame Is Wall Street's Gain
By Robert Scheer Truthdig Wednesday 12 March 2008
Tell me again: Why should we get all worked up over the revelation that the New York governor paid for sex? Will it bring back to life the eight U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq that same day in a war that makes no sense and has cost this nation trillions in future debt? Will it save those millions of homes that hardworking folks all over the country are losing because of financial industry shenanigans that Eliot Spitzer, as much as anyone, attempted to halt? Perhaps it provides some insight into why oil has risen to $108 a barrel, benefiting most of all the oil sheiks whom our taxpayer-supported military has kept in power?
Sure, the guy, by his own admission, is quite pathetic in all those small, squirrelly ways that have messed up the lives of other grand public figures before him, but why is an all-too-human sin, amply predicted in early Scripture, getting all this incredible media play as some sort of shocking event? The answer is that, while having precious little to do with serious corruption in public life, it does have a great deal to do with stoking flagging newspaper sales and television ratings. The sad truth is that reporting on major corruption, say, the rationalizations of a president who has authorized torture, doesn't cut it as a marketing bonanza. Just days before this grand expose, the president vetoed a bill banning torture, and instead of being greeted with horrified disgust, the president's deep denigration of this nation's presumed ideals was met with a vast public yawn. Torture, unlike paid sex, doesn't have legs as a news story.
Sex sells, and frankly it would seem far more exploitative for the news media to pimp this tale to the public than anything that VIP escort service did with the pitiable governor. His behavior was not really any more wretched than messing around with a young and vulnerable White House intern who didn't even get paid for her efforts, yet Bill Clinton survived that one, whereas Spitzer was presumed dead on the arrival of this "news." The New York Times, which editorially has supported the candidacy of Hillary Clinton, whose vast White House experience clearly did not include corralling her husband, now editorializes contemptuously about Spitzer's betrayal of the public trust as well as about his exploitation of his "ashen-faced" wife, who, like Hillary, stood by her man.
The media consensus from the opening salvo was that Spitzer must resign and he will be thrown to the dogs, which is unfortunate because, like Clinton, he has done much valuable work in the public interest, and the outrage over this personal dereliction, tawdry in the extreme, is excessive. I certainly never wanted Clinton to resign, let alone be impeached, but why is Spitzer's paying for sex more disgraceful than ripping it off? Yes, Spitzer allegedly broke a law that shouldn't be on the books, and his resignation in disgrace is inevitable, but it bothers me that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney remain in office despite having violated enormously more serious laws.
Frankly, I don't care what any of these politicians do in their personal lives as long as the practice is consensual, and the thousands of dollars that exchanged hands in this case would provide a presumption that the lady in question was indeed a willing partner in this commercial transaction. True, Spitzer is an outrageous hypocrite for having prosecuted others caught in what should not be considered criminal behavior, but since when is hypocrisy on the part of a politician, particularly as to sex, so shocking?
I wouldn't have written this column had I not read The Wall Street Journal's Page 1 news story headlined "Wall Street Cheers as Its Nemesis Plunges Into Crisis." The article begins with the crowing statement "It's Schadenfreude time on Wall Street" and goes on to quote those whom Spitzer went after over what should be considered the criminal greed that has predominated on Wall Street. It was Spitzer, as much as anyone, who sounded the alarm on the subprime mortgage crisis, the obscene payouts to CEOs who defrauded their shareholders and the other financial scandals that have brought the U.S. economy to its knees.
The best rule of thumb these days is that ordinary Americans should be mightily depressed over any news that Wall Street hustlers cheer, for they have been exposed as a dangerous pack of scoundrels quite willing to rob decent, hardworking people of their homes. And of course no one on Wall Street ever paid for sex.=

We Agnostics
"Some of us have been violently anti-religious. To others, the word 'God' brought up a particular idea of Him with which someone had tried to impress them during childhood.… With that rejection we imagined we had abandoned the God idea entirely. We were bothered with the thought that faith and dependence upon a Power beyond ourselves was somewhat weak, even cowardly. We look upon this world of warring individuals, warring theological systems, and inexplicable calamity, with deep skepticism.… How could a Supreme Being have anything to do with it all? And who could comprehend a Supreme Being anyhow? Yet, in other moments, we found ourselves thinking, when enchanted by a starlit night, 'Who, then, made all this?' There was a feeling of awe and wonder, but it was fleeting and soon lost.
"Yes, we of agnostic temperament have had these thoughts and experiences.… We found that as soon as we were able to lay aside prejudice and express even a willingness to believe in a Power greater than ourselves, we commenced to get results, even though it was impossible for any of us to fully define or comprehend that Power, which is God."

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

ADULT JOKES
Top Four Adult Jokes
Fourth Place :
A man bumps into a woman in a hotel lobby and as he does, His elbow goes into her breast. They are both quite startled.
The man turns to her and says, 'Ma'am, if your heart is as soft as your breast, I know you'll forgive me.' She replies, 'If your penis is as hard as your elbow, I'm in room 221.'
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Third Place :
One night, as a couple lays down for bed, the husband starts rubbing his wife's arm.
The wife turns over and says 'I'm sorry honey, I've got a gynecologist appointment tomorrow and I want to stay fresh.' The husband, rejected, turns over. A few minutes later, he rolls back over and taps his wife again. 'Do you have a dentist appointment tomorrow too?' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Runner Up: Bill worked in a pickle factory. He had been employed there for a number of years when he came home one day To confess to his wife that he had a terrible compulsion. He had an urge to stick his penis into the pickle slicer. His wife suggested that he should see a sex therapist to talk about it, but Bill said he would be too embarrassed. He vowed to overcome the compulsion on his own.
One day a few weeks later, Bill came home and his wife could see at once that something was seriously wrong.
'What's wrong, Bill ?' she asked.
'Do you remember that I told you how I had this tremendous urge to put my penis into the pickle slicer?'
'Oh, Bill , you didn't' she exclaimed.
'Yes, I did.' he replied. 'My God, Bill , what happened?' 'I got fired.' ' No , Bill . I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?' 'Oh...she got fired too.'----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Winner:
A couple had been married for 50 years.
They were sitting at the breakfast table one morning when the wife says, 'Just think, fifty years ago we were sitting here at this breakfast table together.'
'I know,' the old man said. 'We were probably sitting here naked as a jaybird fifty years ago.'
'Well,' Granny snickered. 'Let's relive some old times.'
Where upon, the two stripped to the buff and sat down at the table.
'You know, honey,' the little old lady breathlessly replied, 'My nipples are as hot for you today as they were fifty years ago.'
'I wouldn't be surprised,' replied Gramps.
'One's in your coffee and the other is in your oatmeal.'

'You know, honey,' the little old lady breathlessly replied, 'My nipples are as hot for you today as they were fifty years ago.'
'I wouldn't be surprised,' replied Gramps.
'One's in your coffee and the other is in your oatmeal.'
Joy To The World
Jeremiah was a bullfrog
Was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him a-drink his wine
And he always had some mighty fine wine
Singin'...Joy to the world
All the boys and girls now
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
If I were the king of the world
Tell you what I'd do
I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war
Make sweet love to you
Sing it now...Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
You know I love the ladies
Love to have my fun
I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider
A straight shootin' son-of-a-gun
I said a straight shootin' son-of-a-gun
Joy to the world All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
Joy to the worldAll the boys and girls

Amazing New Cocktail
Since I'm so cheap and broke I save all the orange slices I put in my vodka drinks in the fridge. They soak up the vodka. So today I pureed them and added ice and vodka and wow what a fruity explosion......this is my last bottle of vodka for awhile so I wanted to make it exciting.
What a great new biz idea Vodka slushies.....

Man Rules
The Man Rules
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down
Finally , the guys' side of the story.
( I must admit, it's pretty good.)
We always hear " the rules "
From the female side.
Now here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules!Please note.. these are all numbered "1 " ON PURPOSE!
1. Men are NOT mind readers.
1. Learn to work the toilet seat.You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.We need it up, you need it down.You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
1. Sunday sports It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides.Let it be.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work!Strong hints do not work!Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.
1. If you think you're fat, you probably are.Don't ask us.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one
1. You can either ask us to do something Or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials..
1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched.We do that.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.
1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, Expect an answer you don't want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine... Really.
1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball or golf.
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have too many shoes.
1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!
1. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

People Who Are Mad All The Time
Expect The World To Revolve Around Them......It's Called Narcissism. They want your attention 24-7 and if you don't give it to them watch out!Love Yourself Enough To See through This Behavior.

Step 3
Step Three: Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
"To every worldly and practical-minded beginner, this Step looks hard, even impossible. No matter how much one wishes to try, exactly how can he turn his own will and his own life over to the care of whatever God he thinks there is? Fortunately, we who have tried it, and with equal misgivings, can testify that anyone, anyone at all, can begin to do it. We can further add that a beginning, even the smallest, is all that is needed. Once we have placed the key of willingness in the lock and have the door ever so slightly open, we find that we can always open it some more."

Quicksand
From "Bill's Story":
"No words can tell of the loneliness and despair I found in that bitter morass of self-pity. Quicksand stretched around me in all directions. I had met my match. I had been overwhelmed. Alcohol was my master."

It's not your imagination. Someone is definitely trying to step on your toes. No matter how subtle their tactics seem to the average bear, trust your antennae and respond appropriately.

It Sure Gets Lonely In Vt In Winter
I wakeup alone Looking forward most to my coffee. What next? A brief burst of mindless TV to stave off the loneliness and the haunting feeling of having no one but my dog. Four cups of coffee down I make a simple breakfast of eggs and cheese. Then out to hike for an hour before the snow starts crashing down silently. Back inside to put on clean PJS and make a bloody mary to take the edge off the loneliness. Again me and the dog. I start a book but end up watching a video of Gleason which is not very good. The house has been shown and I have countered a personal offer of 140,000 with 144. If the offer is met I go out west. Alone or with Victor. Victor got two checks from the IRS and is now on disability. Can two nuts make it? I know I can't make it alone and I can't count on Eric to help me. The rude awakening. After late lunch I make a vodka soda and watch Brokeback Mtn again. Maybe I missed something. I took a hike but I'm not losing weight just staying the same. I suppose now I have to live with being fat or blobby as my friend says. I've always been blobby no matter how thin. This summer I will starve myself into skinniness. The house and what to do is weighing on my mind. I'm sick of the snow that is falling endlessly. Tom morrow I get food and more crates to pack clothes. I must go. Alone or not I must go. The future will never happen stuck here in a place I call home but share many bad memories and such a bad climate. Maybe in a warm place I can blossom and Meadowmorphosize?I wish I had help to move but I know Victor will. That's enough for me.
