Culled from Spam

I trade spam emails with a few buddies, including SER. We forward the latest gags and videos and whatever to each other. Often these emails have various things attached to them (advertisements and/or links) that I try to remove, as well as the recipients' history, before I pass them along. Yesterday, I came across this little ditty at the bottom of an email about a completely different subject. I removed it before forwarding the email, but I saved it. I think it's kind of neat and it deserves a blog of its own:

This is funny, but true.

There's always a little truth behind every just kidding.
A little knowledge behind every I don't know.
A little emotion behind every I don't care.
And a little pain behind every it's okay.

I like it....

This is another I find interesting:

The people you hate don’t know it
and the rest of them don’t care.

I always tell people not to forward stuff to me. It is usually the same old jokes, over and over. You boys get the good stuff, though. Occasionally, a real winner is sent my way.

Thanks for posting this orbs. It is very true. I especially like the one by Medgar. Reminds us not to waste too much emotion on things of which we have no control.

Orb's, You are absolutely correct. I have at times reminded the person saying It. They are full of It.

SER, I recently watched the story of his assassination on PBS. Some people actually think things like this could never happen again. This country has so many racist, It's horrible. People will tell you, "That can't be true, we have a black President" First of all It's not alway's BLACK, but YOUNG people made the difference for this President.

We have so many nut jobs (à la the loon who shot Rep. Giffords), I'm surprised it doesn't happen much more often.

I remember the assassinations of my youth vividly. They were terrible.

Orb's, As things are going. The later generations will experience things we did decades ago, that they will call COMMON PLACE. Wow what a future?
