FEELING BURDENED LATELY…...GIVE THANKS!

I don’t know how I found MOMMYLIFE (12 kids, folks!), and I haven’t spent much time there, but she passed along a FABULOUS story the other day…...

WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOUR HOUSE MIGHT BE WORTH?

Or your boss’ house? Or the pastor’s? Using ZILLOW.COM, you can get an estimate of the value of any house in the U.S.

FULL DISCLOSURE: The guys who set up this site are warning that it’s still in the test stage, and there are some discrepancies.

WE’VE HEARD A LOT ABOUT DEAD VOTERS IN THE PAST

We’ve heard about this from LBJ’s first election, where some voter lists were reputed to be identical to names from the gravestones along the main road through the cemetery, to Richard Daley’s Chicago, where some said the difference in Kennedy’s victory over Nixon was made up of the names of the dead. But, one might hope that in this day and age of high tech and a serious emphasis on clean elections, it might be a thing of the past.

Well….....no, actually.

HAVE YOU SEEN (and heard) THE COURTSHIP FLIGHT OF THE WOODCOCK?

Neither had I until last Saturday night!

They aren’t everywhere, but you can check the RANGE MAPS to see if there’s a chance of seeing them near where you live.

EVER HEARD OF ILAN HALIMI?

I wonder why not…... Are you dependent on the “old media”, TV and American newspapers? Consider widening your horizons. So, just who is (was) Ilan Halimi?

HOW EVIL ARE YOU…...?

Surprise!! At least to me…...I turned out 32% evil. Of course, in answering the questions, I counted shoplifting at 7 years old, an experience never to be repeated in the last 50+ years!

You can CHECK YOUR OWN PERCENTAGE.

Let me know how it turns out, if you dare!
