A PROCLAMATION
During this year's National Days of Prayer and Remembrance, we
honor the thousands of victims who died in the brutal and ruthless
attacks in New York City, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon on September
11, 2001. Our Nation remembers with gratitude the firefighters, police
officers, first responders, and ordinary citizens who acted with courage
and compassion to save the lives of others, and we pray for the families
whose loved ones were taken from them.
Never forgetting that terrible day, we remain determined to bring
our enemies to justice, defy the terrorists' ideology of hate, and work
to make our world safer. We honor the members of our Armed Forces who
died while taking the fight to our adversaries, and we are grateful for
those who continue to protect our Nation and our way of life. Their
courage, sacrifice, and dedication help preserve our freedom. We pray
for their safety, for all those who love them, and for the peace we all
seek.
We remain a hopeful America, inspired by the kindness and
compassion of our citizens and our commitment to freedom and
opportunity. During these days of prayer and remembrance, we reflect on
all we have lost and take comfort in each other and in the grace and
mercy of our Creator. May God guide us, give us strength and wisdom,
and may He continue to bless our great country.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States
of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution
and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim Friday, September 7,
through Sunday, September 9, 2007, as National Days of Prayer and
Remembrance. I ask that the people of the United States and their
places of worship mark these National Days of Prayer and Remembrance
with memorial services, the ringing of bells, and evening candlelight
remembrance vigils. I also invite the people of the world to share in
these Days of Prayer and Remembrance.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this fourth day of
September, in the year of our Lord two thousand seven, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and
thirty-second.
GEORGE W. BUSH

>-->From The FunnyBone: Dear Diary, [Birthday Girl]
It's been a while since I've made an entry, but I've been rather
busy. Between work, family and my never ending search for the
perfect Hooters waitress, I just haven't had the time. But tonight
something special happened. During the celebration of my youngest
daughter's first birthday, we discovered that she is a genius.

With cameras rolling we put her _....#...._

When she had finished and realized that `'---------'`
she wasn't going to get another piece,
she picked up the paper plate and began to lick the frosting off of
it! I didn't learn that trick until I was almost 20 years-old!

>Sharing:
A tour bus driver is driving with a bus load of seniors down a highway
when he is tapped on his shou lder by a little old lady.
She offers him a handful of peanuts, which he gratefully munches up.
After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder again and she hands
him another handful of peanuts.
She repeats this gesture about five more times.
When she is about to hand him another batch again he asks the little old
lady, "Why don't you eat the peanuts yourself?".
"We can't chew them because we've no teeth", she replied.
The puzzled driver asks, "Why do you buy them then?"
The old lady replied, "We just Love the chocolate around them."

Once upon a time there was a nonconforming sparrow who decided not
to head south for the winter.
Soon the weather turned so cold that he reluctantly started to fly
mouth. In a short time ice began to form on his wings and he fell to
earth in a barnyard, almost frozen. A cow passed by and crapped on the
little sparrow. The sparrow thought it was the end. But, the manure
warmed him and defrosted his wings. Warm and happy, able to breath, he
started to sing, just then a large cat came by and hearing the chirping
investigated the sounds. The cat cleared away the manure, found the
chirping bird and promptly ate him.

The moral of the story:
1. Everyone who 'poohs' on you is not necessarily your enemy.
2. Everyone that gets you out of the 'pooh' is not necessarily your
friend.
3. And, if you are warm and happy in a pile of 'pooh', keep your mouth
shut!

-- Singapore court rules on bad feng shui --------
SINGAPORE - Bad feng shui has been ruled a legitimate
reason to sell a home in Singapore and not have to pay
taxes on the proceeds. Singapore's High Court ruled
Thursday that a couple was indeed forced to sell their
apartment due to the lousy design that soured the feng
shui energy, so they don't owe the government a tax on
their gains. Feng shui is the Asian art of designing
and decorating a home or office so that positive energy
flows throughout and bad energy is kept outside. The
Straits Times said the case, believed to be a first in
Singapore, involved a couple who tax collectors had
alleged were trading real estate in the 1990s and
therefore owed the government a cut.

-- Suspected undies bandit under arrest ---------
LAS CRUSES, N.M. - A suspect in a string of Las Cruces, New
Mexico robberies has been charged with breaking into homes
and stealing, among other things, women's undies. Police
dubbed the thief "the serial lingerie bandit" because of
his proclivity for taking underwear, the El Paso (Texas)
Times reported Friday. The burglaries "were spread out
over the last two months," Las Cruces Police spokesman Dan
Trujillo said. "It could be more, and there could be other
victims out there." Although jailed on two burglary counts,
investigators said they suspect Martin Angel Moreno, 23,
broke into at least six homes to steal women's panties.
When searching the suspect's home, police found, among
other things, lingerie, DVDs, television sets and photos
of victims and their families. "We think (the photos are)
probably like a memento for him, an additional memento
beside the undergarments," Trujillo said.

-- British woman turns 110 years old ---------
GODALMING, England - A British woman born in 1897
celebrated her 110th birthday in Godalming, England,
attributing her old age to ingesting lots of salt.
Mary Brown, who lives at Eastlake Residential Home,
was with four generations of her family Wednesday to
mark her 110th birthday, Britain's Telegraph reported.
In attendance were five grandchildren and 12 great-
grandchildren, as well as her 78-year-old son, George.
Brown outlived her eldest son, Hugh, who died in 2002
and her husband, John, who died in 1950. The former
teacher recalled at her party that the arrival of
electricity and labor-saving devices at her home when
she was younger is still one of the biggest changes she
has seen, The Telegraph said. She also revealed that
she has lived so long due to the facts that she doesn't
drive and enjoys all food with plenty of salt.

Pink Tasers still pack quite a wallop
Arizona's Taser International Inc., looking to the female
potential buyer, redefines shocking colors with 50,000-volt
Tasers in high-fashion hues. The folks at Taser are
flooding the market with a new Taser geared toward women
that delivers a 50,000-volt jolt with a fashionable casing,
The Washington Times reported. The pink, purple, silver
and blue Tasers have been selling at a rapid pace since
they were introduced in July. "It's been phenomenal,"
Taser International President Kathy Hanrahan told the Times.
"There are millions of people who want to be able to
protect themselves but don't want to carry a firearm," said
Hanrahan. "We wanted to provide an alternative without
having to take a life." The Taser C2 costs about $350 and
is about the size of a cell phone.

|[[[| Trash can helps save baby in California
'---' ptr
A mother in San Jose, Calif., hid her baby in a trash can
this week in a desperate but successful attempt to protect
the infant from a raging pit bull. The San Jose (Calif.)
Mercury News said that when faced with the possibility of
having the dog attack her 4-month-old son, Angela Silva
chose to use a trash can as a temporary baby shelter. The
32-year-old mother said she was attacked by the 80-pound
dog, which lived next door, when she went out to the garage
Tuesday, cradling her son in her arms. Silva said the dog
knocked the trash can over and began to close in on her
child. She threw herself between the two, suffering numerous
bites from the animal before two nearby contractors scared
the dog away. Silva told the newspaper she will never
forget the experience. "This was just so traumatic," she
said. "Every time I closed my eyes, I just thought about
that dog."
Jesus has company on courtroom wall
perhaps heading off a lawsuit over a religious image in a
government facility. Images of Confucius, Hammurabi and
more than a dozen other historical figures have joined
Jesus on the wall at Slidell City Court, The Times-Picayune
of New Orleans reported. Officials mounted the additional
portraits last Friday, one week before a scheduled court
hearing at which the Louisiana chapter of the American Civil
Liberties Union was expected to ask a federal judge to
remove the Jesus portrait as a violation of the U.S.
Constitution. Mike Johnson, senior legal counsel for the
Alliance Defense Fund, a Christian legal organization that
is representing the court, said: "They wanted to erect an
artistic display to emphasize the importance of following
the law to maintain a peaceful society. The expanded
display conveys that same message in a way that is
unmistakable." The Slidell City Court's expanded display
also includes a framed copy of the Constitution, the
newspaper said. The new portraits contain many of the same
figures, "historical lawgivers," depicted on the U.S.
Supreme Court courtroom's north and south walls. However,
the Supreme Court's art does not include Jesus.

b'ger `
If they know of him at all, many folks think Ben Stein is just a quirky
actor/comedian who talks in a monotone. He's also a very intelligent
attorney who knows how to put ideas and words together in such a way as
to sway juries and make people think clearly.
The following was written by Ben Stein and recited by him on CBS Sunday
Morning Commentary.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does
not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up,
bejeweled trees Christmas trees. I don't feel threatened. I don't feel
discriminated against. That's what they are: Christmas trees.
It doesn't bother me a bit when people say, "Merry Christmas" to me. I
don't think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a
ghetto. In fact, I kind of like it. It shows that we are all brothers
and sisters celebrating this happy time of year. It doesn't bother me at
all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near
my beach house in Malibu. If people want a creche, it's just as fine
with me as is the Menorah a few hundred yards away.
I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don't think
Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think
people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around,
period. I have no idea where the concept came from that America is an
explicitly atheist country. I can't find it in the Constitution, and I
don't like it being shoved down my throat.
Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we
should worship Nick and Jessica and we aren't allowed to worship God as
we understand Him?
I guess that's a sign that I'm getting old, too.
But there are a lot of us who are wondering where Nick and Jessica came
from and where the America we knew went to.
In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a
little different: This is not intended to be a joke; it's not funny,
it's intended to get you thinking.
Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane
Clayson asked her "How could God let something like this Happen?"
(regarding Katrina)
Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response.
She said, "I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but
for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out
of our government and to get out of our lives. ?And being the gentleman
He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give
us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?" (She
said the same thing when interviewed after 9-11)
In light of recent events...terrorists attack, school shootings, etc. I
think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her
body found recently) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools,
and we said OK.
Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school. the Bible
says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor
as yourself. And we said OK.
Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they
misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we
might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide). We
said an expert should know what he's talking about. And we said OK.
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they
don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill
strangers, their classmates, and themselves.
Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it
out. I think it has a great deal to do with "WE REAP WHAT WE SOW."
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the
world's going to hell.
Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the
Bible says.
Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like
wildfire but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people
think twice about sharing.
Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through
cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and
workplace.
Are you laughing?
Funny how when you forward this message, you will not send it to many on
your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what
they will think of you for sending it.
Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us
than what God thinks of us.
Pass it on if you think it has merit. If not then just discard it... no
one will know you did. But, if you discard this thought process, don't
sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.
My Best Regards. honestly and respectfully,
Ben Stein

When you have to visit a public bathroom, you usually find a line of
women, so you smile politely and take your place. Once it's your turn,
you check for feet under the stall doors. Every stall is occupied.
Finally, a door opens and you dash in, nearly knocking down the woman
leaving the stall.
You get in to find the door won't latch. It doesn't matter, the wait has
been so long you are about to wet your pants! The dispenser for the
modern "seat covers" (invented by someone's Mom, no doubt) is handy, but
empty. You would hang your purse on the door hook, if there was one, but
there isn't - so you carefully, but quickly drape it around your neck,
(Mom would turn over in her grave if you put it on the FLOOR!), yank
down your pants, and assume " The Stance."
In this position your aging, toneless thigh muscles begin to shake.
You'd love to sit down, but you certainly hadn 't taken time to wipe the
seat or lay toilet paper on it, so you hold "The Stance."
To take your mind off your trembling th! ighs, you reach for what you
discover to be the empty toilet paper dis penser. In your mind, you can
hear your mother's voice saying, "Honey, if you had tried to clean the
seat, you would have KNOWN there was no toilet paper!" Your thighs shake
more.
You remember the tiny tissue that you blew your nose on yesterday - the
one that's still in your purse. (Oh yeah, the purse around your neck,
that now, you have to hold up trying not to strangle yourself at the
same time). That would have to do. You crumple it in the puffiest way
possible. It's still smaller than your thumbnail .
Someone pushes your door open because the latch doesn't work. The door
hits your purse, which is hanging around your neck in front of your
chest, and you and your purse topple backward against the tank of the
toilet. "Occupied!" you scream, as you reach for the door, dropping your
precious, tiny, crumpled tissue in a puddle on the floor, lose your
footing altogether, and slide down directly onto the TOILET SEAT. It is
wet of course. You bolt up, knowing all too well that it 's too late.
Your bare bottom has made contact with every imaginable germ and life
form on the uncovered seat because YOU never laid down toilet paper -
not that there was any, even if you had taken time to try. You know that
your mother would be utterly appalled if she knew, because, you're
certain her bare bottom never touched a public toilet seat because,
frankly, dear, "You just don't KNOW what kind of diseases you could
get."
By this time, the automatic sensor on the back of the toilet is so
confused that it flushes, propelling a stream of water like a fire hose
against the inside of the bowl that sprays a fine mist of water that
covers your butt and runs down your legs and into your shoes. The flush
somehow sucks everything down with such force that you grab onto the
empty toilet paper dispenser for fear of being dragged in too.
At this point, you give up. You're soaked by the spewing water and the
wet toilet seat. You're exhausted. You try to wipe with a gum wrapper
you found in your pocket and then slink out inconspicuously to the
sinks.
You can't figure out how to operate the faucets with the automatic
sensors, so you wipe your hands with spit and a dry paper towel and walk
pa st the line of women still waiting.
You are no longer able to smile politely to them. A kind soul at the
very end of the line points out a piece of toilet paper trailing from
your shoe. (Where was that when you NEEDED it??) You yank the paper from
your shoe, plunk it in the woman's hand and tell her warmly, "Here, you
just might need this."
As you exit, you spot your hubby, who has long since entered, used, and
left the men's restroom. Annoyed, he asks, "What took you so long, and
why is your purse hanging around your neck?"
This is dedicated to women everywhere who deal with a pu blic restrooms
(rest??? you've GOT to be kidding!!). It finally explains to the men
what really does take us so long. It also answers their other commonly
asked questions about why women go to the restroom in pairs. It's so the
other gal can hold the door, hang onto your purse and hand you Kleenex
under the door!
(This HAD to be written by a woman! No one else could describe it so
accurately!)
Send this to all women that need a good laugh AND, don't forget to have
a mammogram!!!!!! It could save your life!

If you can read this without laughing out loud.... well......
This is dedicated to everyone who ever attempted to get into a regular
workout routine.
Dear Diary,
For my sixtieth birthday this year, my daughter Rachel (the dear)
purchased a week of personal training at the local health club for me.
Although I am still in great shape since being a high school football
cheerleader 43 years ago, I decided it would be a good idea to go ahead
and give it a try.
I called the club and made my reservations with a personal trainer named
Belinda, who identified herself as a 26-year-old aerobics instructor and
model for athletic clothing and swim wear. My daughter seemed pleased
with my enthusiasm to get started! The club encouraged me to keep a
diary to chart my progress.
MONDAY :
Started my day at 6:00 a.m. Tough to get out of bed, but found it was
well worth it when I arrived at the health club to find Belinda waiting
for me. She is something of a Greek goddess - with blond hair, dancing
eyes and a dazzling white smile. Woo Hoo!! Belinda gave me a tour and
showed me the machines. I enjoyed watching the skillful way in which she
conducted her aerobics class after my workout today. Very inspiring!
Belinda was encouraging as I did my sit-ups, although my gut was already
aching from holding it in the whole time she was around. This is going
to be a FANTASTIC week-!!
TUESDAY :
I drank a whole pot of coffee, but I finally made it out the door.
Belinda made me lie on my back and push a heavy iron bar into the air -
then she put weights on it! My legs were a little wobbly on the
treadmill, but I made the full mile. Belinda's rewarding smile made it
all worthwhile. I feel GREAT-!! It's a whole new life for me.
WEDNESDAY :
The only way I can brush my teeth is by laying the toothbrush on the
counter and moving my mouth back and forth over it. I believe I have a
hernia in both pectorals. Driving was OK as long as I didn't try to
steer or stop. I parked on top of a GEO in the club parking lot.
Belinda was impatient with me, insisting that my screams bothered other
club members. Her voice is a little too perky for early in the morning;
and when she scolds, she gets this nasally whine that is VERY annoying.
My chest hurt when I got on the treadmill, so Belinda put me on the
stair 'monster'. Why the h*** would anyone invent a machine to simulate
an activity rendered obsolete by elevators? Belinda told me it would
help me get in shape and enjoy life. She said some other s*** too.
THURSDAY :
Belinda was waiting for me with her vampire-like teeth exposed as her
thin, cruel lips were pulled back in a full snarl. I couldn't help being
a half an hour late, it took me that long to tie my shoes. Belinda took
me to work out with dumbbells. When she was not looking, I ran and hid
in the restroom. She sent another skinny b**** to find me. Then, as
punishment, she put me on the rowing machine -- which I sank.
FRIDAY :
I hate that b**** Belinda more than any human being has ever hated any
other human being in the history of the world. Stupid, skinny, anemic,
anorexic little cheerleader. If there was a part of my body I could move
without unbearable pain, I would beat her with it.
Belinda wanted me to work on my triceps. I don't have any triceps! And
if you don't want dents in the floor, don't hand me the D*** barbells or
anything that weighs more than a sandwich. The treadmill flung me off
and I landed on a health and nutrition teacher. Why couldn't it have
been someone softer, like the drama coach or the choir director?
SATURDAY :
Belinda left a message on my answering machine in her grating, shrilly
voice wondering why I did not show up today. Just hearing her made me
want to smash the machine with my planner. However, I lacked the
strength to even use the TV remote and ended up catching eleven straight
hours of the Weather Channel.
SUNDAY :
I'm having the Church van pick me up for services today so I can go and
thank GOD that this week is over. I will also pray that next year my
daughter Rachel (the little s***) will choose a gift for me that is fun
-- like a root canal or a hysterectomy. I still say if God had wanted me
to bend over, he would have sprinkled the floor with diamonds!!!

I know my company has made a big effort to be family

[I know I've used this joke more than once before, but it's
one of my favorites...]
One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was
tucking her small boy into bed. She was about to turn off the
light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will
you sleep with me tonight?"
The mother smiled. "I can't dear," she said. 'I have to sleep
in Daddy's room."
The little boy replied with a shaking voice, "The big sissy."

When I worked as a technical-support specialist for a com-
puter company, customer help calls ranged from the mundane
to the bizarre.
One memorable problem I had to trouble-shoot came from a
man who complained that every time he flushed his toilet,
his computer would reboot.
It turned out that he lived in a rural area with water
supplied by a well with an electric pump. Every time he
flushed, it would turn on the pump, causing a dip in the
electric power, which in turn would cause the computer
to restart itself.
-<>-
It is Christmas eve. A burglar breaks into the home of a
prominent local lawyer. He takes the lawyer's Christmas
gifts from under the tree leaving the packages for the
wife and children alone. As he is leaving the house, he is
apprehended by a policeman.
He confesses to what he has done but tells the policeman
that he can't be arrested.
The policeman asks why, and he responds, "Because the law
states that I'm entitled to the presents of an attorney."

Two nuns were shopping in a food store and happened to be
passing the beer and liquor section. One asks the other
if she would like a beer. The other nun answered that
would be good, but that she would feel uncomfortable about
purchasing it. The first nun said that she would handle it
and picked up a six pack and took it to the cashier.
The cashier had a surprised look and the first nun said,
"The beer is for washing our hair."
The cashier, without blinking an eye, reached under the
counter and put a package of pretzels in the bag with the
beer. "Here you go, sister," she said, "don't forget the
curlers."

Co-workers sympathized as my mother complained that her back
was really sore from moving furniture. "Why don't you wait
till your husband gets home?" someone asked. "I could," my
mother told the group," but the couch is easier to move if
he's not on it."

My husband seems to feel one should get their money's worth
on vacation. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to frolic every
minute or not. But once when I was sitting in a beach chair
on the sand, he came out of the surf and said, "This is
costing us $300 a day - and you sit there reading a book!"

Time passes.
Life happens.
Distance separates.
Children grow up.
Jobs come and go.
Love waxes and wanes.
Men don't do what they're supposed to do.
Hearts break.
Parents die.
Colleagues forget favors.
Careers end.
BUT.........
Sisters are there,
no matter how much time and how
many miles are between you.
A girl friend is never farther away
than needing her can reach.
When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you
have to walk it by yourself, the women in your life
will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on,
praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on
your behalf, and waiting with open arms at the
valley's end.
Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk
beside you...Or come in and carry you out.
Girlfriends, daughters, granddaughters,
daughters-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law, Mothers,
Grandmothers, aunts, nieces, cousins, and extended
family, all bless our life!
The world wouldn't be the same without women, and
neither would I. When we began this adventure called
womanhood, we had no idea of the incredible joys or
sorrows that lay ahead. Nor did we know how much we
would need each other.
Every day, we need each other still.
Pass this on to all the women who help make your
life meaningful.
I just did.
Short and very sweet:
There are more than twenty angels in this world.
Ten are peacefully sleeping on clouds.
Nine are playing.
And one is reading her email at this moment.
Send this message to ten of your friends
including me.
If you get 5 replies,
someone you love will surprise you.
Happy days

The area's custodian, the one who had the job of sweeping up debris,

Lousy Sermon
A minister was called away unexpectedly by the illness of a
close family member. He entrusted his new assistant with filling the
pulpit. The Pastor's wife stayed home. When he returned, the minister
asked his wife what she thought of the young man's sermon.
"The poorest I've ever heard," she said. "There was nothing in
it, nothing at all. It didn't even make sense. It was very
unorganized. I was disappointed."
Later that day, the concerned minister met his assistant and
asked him, "How'd the Sunday service and sermon go? Did all go well?
How did you manage?"
"All went very well, sir, absolutely wonderful," he said. "I

Life After Playboy
A former centerfold discovered fulfillment helping Haiti's
neediest children. Now she's ready to expose the evils of pornography.
by Bob Liparulo
Susie Krabacher's body has opened a lot of doors, not all of
them to places she ought to have gone. One such place: Hugh Hefner's
Playboy mansion, where she lived for a year and then visited
frequently after her 1984 stint as a Playboy centerfold. Her season
there and her journey out of that symbolic heart of hedonism to a
Christian life of tireless giving have opened yet another door-this
time not for her but for those who see only the airbrushed bodies of
nude models and not the pain within them.
So forget the incomprehensible numbers-that pornography is an
$8 billion-a-year industry and that 70 percent of all pornographic
magazines end up in the hands of minors. Never mind, at least for
now, the statistics that link pornography to violent crime and
aggression toward women. Krabacher is neither a statistic nor
incomprehensible. She is a charming woman, now 39, whose experience
resides within her as a complex jumble of mixed emotions.
"The craziness of my time as a Playboy model," she says from
her home in Aspen, Colorado, "the attention, the money, the
betrayals, the compromises-all of it-led me to a real relationship
with Christ. So I can't say I hate having gone through it. Do I wish
I could have gotten to where I am today without taking off my
clothes? Absolutely."
And where she is today is indeed an admirable place. She
spends much of her time in Haiti as founding director of the
Foundation for Worldwide Mercy and Sharing, which funds orphanages,
clinics, schools, and hospital wards for needy children. "I call them
my kids," she says. "All 1,658 of them."
So dedicated is she to alleviating the staggering poverty,
hunger, and illness of these Haitian children, she regularly braves
blistering swamps, infectious diseases, even machine-gun-toting gangs
to deliver aid and lots of TLC. Her efforts have garnered national
acclaim, including an article in People magazine, which called her a
hero.
"The media goes, 'Hey, there's a Playboy Bunny doing charity
work in Haiti. That's a story!' " she laughs. "The attention brings
in contributions and volunteers. I see that as God using my past to
make something good."
Innocence uncovered
Speaking of the past causes a subtle change in Krabacher's
normally cheery voice, like the faintest chill that marks the end of
summer. A bit of the warmth goes away.
From age 4 to age 8 her maternal grandfather sexually
molested her. In addition, her parents were so repressively strict,
especially about everything sexual, that when she experienced her
first menstruation, she thought she was dying. At 15, she bolted from
home, lying about her age to get an apartment and a job.
"I was very down on myself," she remembers. "Money was tight,
and I felt like an ugly duckling. I thought nobody liked me, that
nobody could like me."
When Krabacher was 17, a photographer she knew suggested
snapping some shots of her in a bathing suit for submission to
Playboy. "The photographer had fallen on hard times and begged me to
let him take the pictures," she says. "I just couldn't let him down.
I guess Hef loved them because the next thing I know I'm flying out
to California and being treated like a star. I started thinking of
the money and how good it felt to have people tell me I was pretty. I
was hooked."
On her way to the Playboy mansion, Krabacher, who had been
reared in a churchgoing family and had at least a passing
acquaintance with heavenly matters, made a pact with herself. She
would use any fame and fortune that came her way to do good. "I was
going to be God's best little servant." Things didn't quite turn out
that way.
"There are two types of girls who end up at Playboy," she
says. "Ones like me, who are from small towns and quiet backgrounds,
as naïve as can be. Then there are the savvy girls who know exactly
what they want and how to get it. Of course, the savvy ones never get
more innocent, but the innocent ones sure get awfully savvy.
Behavior that you used to think was completely unacceptable suddenly
becomes acceptable. I drew a line in the sand, and then found myself
constantly erasing it and redrawing it."
In her mind, one of those lines delineated nudity from
pornography. "I think most people understand the difference," she
says. "It has a lot to do with body language and posing." Despite
initial intentions to "keep it clean," a desire to please the people
who were being so nice to her prevailed. "I wound up making
pornography."
Which made the people even nicer. Limos, clothing, parties,
wining, dining, promises of fame, fortune, the moon. "It all goes
right to your head. Nobody can be around that kind of attention, that
kind of abundance and not be changed by it."
She concedes having witnessed everything from date rape to
physical abuse. "Girls get injured when they live in a world that
revolves around superficial beauty," she says. "I think the reason
some of them get into lesbianism--and I'd thought about it myself--is
that women are safe. When you're a Playboy model, so many men gawk at
you and hit on you and lie to you and tell you anything to satisfy
their own fantasies, their own lust, you become very distrustful. You
become very wary."
Seeming to follow some invisible script for Playboy models,
along with the public appearances, photo shoots, and countless movie
and television auditions, Krabacher chalked up a failed marriage.
Handling her divorce was Aspen attorney Joe Krabacher, whom she
ultimately married in 1988. "He was the first man in my life who
cared about all of me, inside and out," she says. Away from the
Playboy lifestyle and having found true love, she recommitted herself
to Jesus Christ and helped bring Joe into the fold.
Fatal attractions
"For a long time, I recognized the danger to myself, but I
didn't think that I'd caused harm to others by being a Playboy
model," Krabacher says reflectively. "Slowly, God showed me
otherwise."
One of the bigger blows was finding her husband with a
Playboy magazine. "And it wasn't mine!" she says, only half-joking.
"It really hurt. All of a sudden, I felt that I was competing for his
attention, even his affection."
If Susie Krabacher-beautiful and not so far removed from that
very publication herself-could get the heart knocked out of her that
way, how must the average housewife feel upon making a similar
discovery.
"I feel the same pain," she says. "I know there is always
somebody prettier, younger. And you don't want to think that your
husband has to go outside of your marriage for satisfaction, even if
it's just to a magazine. It makes me sick to think that I may have
contributed to such hurt feelings in other couples' lives by
appearing in Playboy. If I did, I pray for forgiveness, and I pray
everything worked out for them." She pauses, then adds: "But it
doesn't always work out when something like that comes into a
marriage."
She also cringes at the idea that maturing boys often get
their first full glimpse of the female body from pornography. "How
can the girls they know compete with that?" she asks. "They can't.
Nobody can. Even the women in the magazines can't compete with
themselves in perfect pose and perfect lighting and perfect touch-ups.
"Boys who view these magazines not only develop a sense that
women are there merely to satisfy them, but their expectations of
what a girl should look like is skewed.
In a perfect world, young people would learn about sex from
their parents and experience it first with their spouses."
It's not a perfect world, however, and Krabacher knows she
can't do much about those husbands and boys who mistake magazine
nudies for reality. But those good deeds she promised long ago to do,
she is doing. To nearly 2,000 children in Haiti, she is not the
former Playboy model. She is the woman who picks them up and kisses
away their tears and makes everything all better. She is "Miss
Susie," and that's just fine with her.
